Based on the previously-released Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 editions, the PC iteration of Devil May Cry 4 includes additional gameplay modes--the fast-paced Turbo Mode and the screen-filling enemies population of Legendary Dark Knight Mode--along with revised enemy placement.

Capcom also specified that the cinematics of the DirectX 9 and DirectX 10-compatible title will now run at up to 120 frames per seconds instead of the 30 frames per second limit of the console versions.

"The demo consists of a sampling of sections from the full game, chosen to showcase Devil May Cry 4's varied locales and allows gamers to familiarize themselves with Nero's unique abilities," said the company.

Capcom expects the Xbox 360 demo to arrive on Thursday around 2AM PST, with the PS3 version coming in a bit later, around 2 or 3PM PST. The full game, meanwhile, is slated to hit PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on February 5.

The PS3 version of the title will also sport an achievement-esque system, in which players can earn awards for their actions, which are then viewable to other DMC4-playing PS3 users. The PS3 version of the game also features the exclusive ability to direct the camera by tilting the system's motion-sensitive Sixaxis controller.

A similar achievement-like system will be part of the Trophy Room in Sony's upcoming Home (PS3) initiative, though it is not yet known if DMC4 will be compatible with that functionality.

All versions of Devil May Cry 4 arrive on February 5, with the console outings accompanied by an optional $80 collector's edition. Xbox 360 and PS3 demos are due out around that time as well.

Devil May Cry 4 is slated to release on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 on February 5 in North America. A downloadable demo of the console editions is expected early next year.

Much like many of Capcom's other current-gen titles, such as Lost Planet and Dead Rising, Devil May Cry 4 uses Capcom's internally shared MT Framework engine. In the past, Japanese developers have been known to be extremely stubborn regarding the sharing of assets and technology, even between teams, though that trend is shifting, in part due to the complexity of developing for current hardware.

As the PlayStation 3's specifications weren't complete when work on the title began, the team started out developing it for the PC, though the game was still... Read more

Packaged within the metal case of the $79.99 Devil May Cry 4 Collector's Edition are the four episodes of Devil May Cry: The Animated Series Volume 1 and a bonus DVD with making-of content, soundtrack excerpts, a digital artbook, and PC screensavers, wallpapers, and icons. While the price is a bit steeper than the traditional $10 special edition premium, Capcom points out that the anime disc is a $29.99 value.

A standard edition of the game will be available on the two consoles on February 5 as well, priced at $59.99. Though none of the bonus content is platform exclusive, buyers of the eventual PC edition will not be privy the special edition treatment, likely due to the lower price point of the PC version.
