Netflix’s Devil May Cry animated series has taken the anime world by storm, bringing Capcom’s iconic video game franchise to life with slick animation, intense action, and a rebellious punk vibe. After the explosive first season premiered on April 3, 2025, fans were left buzzing with excitement over a major cliffhanger and the official confirmation of Devil May Cry Season 2. If you’re eager to know more about the upcoming season, including release date predictions, cast details, and potential plot points, here’s everything we know so far about Dante’s next demon-slaying adventure.
When Can We Expect Devil May Cry Season 2?
So, Netflix gave the green light for Season 2 on April 10, 2025, like a week after Season 1 exploded onto our screens. That’s a good sign—they know this show’s a banger. But here’s the kicker: no official release date yet. Bummer, right? Still, we can play detective and piece together a rough timeline.
The show’s big shot, Adi Shankar, worked on Castlevania, which usually took about 15 months between seasons. If Devil May Cry follows that pattern, and word on the street is production kicked off around summer 2025, we’re probably looking at late 2026 for Season 2.
Expected Cast for Devil May Cry Season 2
The voice cast in Season 1 was straight-up fire, and most of ‘em are probably back to bring the noise in Season 2. Here’s the lowdown on who we expect to hear in the new season.
- Johnny Yong Bosch as Dante
- Scout Taylor-Compton as Lady (Mary)
- Robbie Daymond as Vergil
- Chris Coppola as Enzo Ferino
- Hoon Lee as White Rabbit
- Kevin Conroy as Vice President Baines
The Japanese dub is stacked too, with Toshiyuki Morikawa as Dante, Fumiko Orikasa as Mary, and Hiroaki Hirata as Vergil.
Plot Details and Expectations for Season 2
Devil May Cry Season 1 ended on a jaw-dropping cliffhanger: Dante, betrayed by Lady, was placed in cryostasis by DARKCOM, a government organization aiming to control his power. Meanwhile, Vergil, revealed as “The Knight” of the demon realm, declared war on humanity, setting the stage for an epic sibling showdown. Here’s what we can expect from Season 2’s plot based on the finale and the game’s lore:
Dante and Vergil’s Beef: These twins are always at each other’s throats, and Season 2’s probably gonna lean hard into that. Vergil’s demon alliance and war talk scream bad blood. The show’s in its own timeline, but it might pull from Devil May Cry 3’s brotherly feud, with some fresh spins. Their mom’s death messed ‘em both up, so expect some emotional gut-punches.
Busting Out of DARKCOM: Dante’s not staying frozen forever, right? Season 2’s gotta show how he breaks free. Maybe Lady flips sides and helps him, or Vergil’s demon squad crashes the party. DARKCOM’s up to no good—probably experimenting with demon juice—so figuring out their deal will be a big plot chunk.
New Faces, Game Nods: If Trish or Nero pop up, it’ll tie the show closer to the Devil May Cry universe. That mystery client from the finale could be a game character or someone new. Shankar’s “Bootleg Multiverse” thing might sneak in Castlevania Easter eggs, but don’t expect Alucard to crash the pizza party.
