Nintendo recently confirmed that the 5th and final DLC character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s first fighters pass (more DLC characters are currently in development as well) will be revealed on January 16– and while speculation is running rampant (to no one’s surprise), there are some who think they’ve figured out who the 5th DLC character is going to be.

Supposedly, Dante, the protagonist of Capcom’s action franchise Devil May Cry, is going to join the fighter’s massive roster. This is mostly based on a tweet from the official Devil May Cry page and series producer Matt Walker last week. In the message, Walker mentioned a few dates – January 16, January 30, and February 13 – as days to keep an eye on for “full reveals.” While the tweet seemed to be related specifically to Devil May Cry 3’s Switch version, many believe that the reveal Walker is referring to for January 16 is the reveal that Dante is the next Smash Bros. character.

Do keep in mind that this is purely speculation, based on what may very well be a coincidence, while Smash DLC characters also aren’t always easy to predict- so this may very well not end up happening. If it does happen though, it’d be pretty cool- Dante in Smash is something fans have been dreaming about for years.

Besides, he wouldn’t be the first Capcom character to join the fighter’s roster, with the likes of Mega Man and Ryu both having represented Capcom in the series. Smash’s first four DLC characters – Persona 5’s Joker, Dragon Quest’s Hero, Banjo-Kazooie, and Terry Bogard from Fatal Fury – have all been third-party owned as well.

Either way, we should find out soon enough- the fifth Super Smash Bros Ultimate DLC character will be revealed on January 16 at 6 AM PT.

There are some pretty sweet deals up on Steam if you’re thinking of pre-purchasing DmC: Devil May Cry right now.

If you purchase the game right now, you can get it for $49.99, and also get the costume pack downloadable content for free. However, that’s not even the real deal.

You can spend a few extra bucks and get the game for $59.99 over here. Why’s this deal so good? Because you get the awesome Devil May Cry 3 and the only decent Devil May Cry 4 for free along with DmC itself (well, of course). And you get the Special Edition for DMC3, no less, which means you also get to play the Virgil campaign.

Which means you’re practically saving upto $30 compared to how much you would have to spend if you bought these games individually.

But make sure your PC can run the game before you purchase it. Get the system requirements here.

Check out this new gameplay video from Devil May Cry, developed by Ninja Theory. In this video, you can see the floors attacking Dante, and one of them even saying, “FUCK YOU!” Wait what? Yes. You can see that in the video.

Ninja theory seems to be bringing a whole level of awesome to this game, and while I was sceptical before, I certainly am not now when it comes to this game.
