Devil May Cry producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi sat down with Team Xbox to show off the Xbox 360 version of Devil May Cry 4's (by Capcom also for PlayStation 3, PC) work-in-progress demo of the game, and revealed some interesting details about the game, mostly about DMC 4 being the franchise's Xbox 360 debut. Later, they also touched on other aspects of the game that concern the other platform releases as well.

Kobayashi said that one of the reasons why they decided to introduce a new character in DMC 4, Nero, is to make it easier for Xbox users (as well as other first-time Devil May Cry gamers) to catch up with those who already played through the first three games. He added:

We have created this game so that, if you haven’t played games in the series before, you will enjoy it. First of all, the story…you can enjoy that even if you don’t know the story of the other three games in the series - it won’t affect your enjoyment of this story.
