"Monster Hunter: World" is undoubtedly one of the best games for Capcom both on the company's side and on the gamer's side. With more and more crossovers with other Capcom titles being introduced, another one is on the way. "Devil May Cry" features will now be available in the game.

The news of the crossover also came with a trailer, of course, for Capcom to show its fans what the new crossover will actually feature. In a funny way, it featured the character doing most of the main things people do in the game with "Devil May Cry" protagonist Dante's costume on. It even ends in the classic manner of Dante shooting his two handguns.

If it did not catch the player's eye, it is not only the costume of Dante that players get to be equipped with but his weapons as well. The character in the trailer even unleashes his sword using Force Edge and Alastor, which is exactly like that of Dante. Of course, players will also get to run away with the meat and eat it sizzling.

As for the sword, players would wonder about the shield. "In Monster Hunter, that weapon falls in the Charge Blade category, and typically features a hefty shield that, when combined with its matching sword, can turn into a massive axe," reads the official announcement. "As you can see, we're putting a bit of a DMC twist to the formula and leaving the shield out of the picture altogether (you'll still be able to guard though) and instead of a sword turning into an axe, you'll get a Force Edge that turns into a massive Alastor."

As for now, developer Capcom did not mention in the video nor in the announcement post when the update for the "Devil May Cry" crossover will come out. Although it did mention that players will have to take a certain special quest to get the items, which is not much of a surprise.

For those who are not aware, this also comes with the "Devil May Cry HD Collection" that was just released recently for the PlayStation 4 (PS4), Xbox One and PC.
