Netflix has confirmed that DEVIL MAY CRY will return for a third and final season following the release of Season 2. Showrunner Adi Shankar revealed that the series was planned as a three-part story inspired by Dante’s Divine Comedy.
According to him, each season represents a different part of the journey:
- Season 1: Inferno
- Season 2: Purgatorio
- Season 3: Paradiso
These three seasons together form what he calls “The Force Edge Saga”, designed from the start as a movie trilogy told through a TV series format. Season 3 will conclude the story, though Netflix has not yet announced a release date.
Seasons 1 and 2 are currently available to stream on Netflix, with animation by Studio Mir.
