V carries a book and a cane, but battles using three demon spirits: a lightning eagle called Griffon, a panther named Shadow that can sprout blades, spikes and portals from its body, and golem called Nightmare. V (all new): V is new to this game, so all his weapons and powers are likewise new.
Some of his weapons sound ridiculous, but they are effective: a pair of boots and gauntlets combo called Balrog that offer fiery death to demons, and a red hat called Dr Faustus the use of which can be high-risk for unwary players.
The series is loosely based on Dante’s Inferno, as can be seen with the characters’ names and the plot of the game. This game is set five years after the previous edition, and continues the protagonist, Dante’s battle to avenge his mother by defeating demons in lengthy battles that use classical tactical moves.
