In our review of Devil May Cry Season 1, we noted, "Devil May Cry is not without its flaws, including horrendous use of CG, bad jokes, and predictable characters. Yet, Adi Shankar and Studio Mir have crafted a fun video-game adaptation that doubles as a deranged, bonkers, and bold homage to and indictment of '00s Americana. If nothing else, it contains some of the best animation you’re likely to see this year, and its epic finale makes for a very effective tease for an even wilder second season."

The announcement of Season 2 shouldn't come as a surprise, as series creator Adi Shankar had previously hinted at planning a "multi-season arc." For more insights, check out our discussion with Shankar from IGN Fan Fest 2025, where he shared his vision for bringing the best of the series to Netflix.
