For its
Devil May Cry game, Ninja Theory somewhat boldly reimagined the revered protagonist, Dante, changing his appearance and his backstory. And now, to assuage the surprisingly irritated
Devil May Cry fanbase, Ninja Theory assured Dengeki PlayStation that this version of Dante is from a parallel continuity separate from that of the white-haired Dante-Prime.
That means that the Dante you know and love can continue in his own universe, and potentially in future
Devil May Cry games, while Dante of Earth 2 splits off in a different direction. It also means that there's an official
Devil May Cry "canon," which somebody has actually put thought into. In fact, there are two now.
