A while ago Capcom held a competition to celebrate DMC’s 10th Anniversary. Here are the winners from the artwork competition as selected by Itsuno-san which will feature in the upcoming HD Collection. Some truly awesome artwork! Take a look at the captions for comments from Creative Director and Devil May Cry veteran Hideaki Itsuno himself.

Second Place: “A pro [illustrator]? Super cool. His/her style will go over really well in Japan, too!” – Itsuno-san


Third Place: “Like some anime’s theatrical release poster, really nice. All star cast from 3 & 4 :-) ” – Itsuno-san
