Switch Port of ‘Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition’ to Feature Local Co-op Play in “Bloody Palace” Mode
Capcom has revealed the final goodie for the upcoming Switch port of Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition in the form of local cooperative gameplay to the game’s “Bloody Palace” mode. Capcom producer Matt Walker took to Twitter again to post the news.
“Bloody Palace now has local co-op,” explained Walker. “So now you’ll be able to play as Dante and Vergil—two players—it’s kind of like if you’ve played Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition before in the doppelganger style. There was a hidden Easter egg where you can pick up a second controller and play as, basically, two players.”
“With this one, it’s not doppelganger, it’s actually Dante and Vergil separately. And you’ll be able to use any different combination of single Joy-Cons or double Joy-Cons, or Pro Controllers… You’re going to be able to access this after playing the intro mission of the game. You will be able to select Bloody Palace co-op and you’re going to be able to select different save data for Dante and Vergil. You’re also going to be able to have different controller customization options for the controller setup for each player.”
Capcom also took to Twitch to show off the co-op gameplay. You can grab Devil May Cry 3 Special Edition via the Nintendo eShop on February 20.

Path Games provided an update for its in-development underwater haunted house title Dark Mass, revealing that the game will receive a physical release for PlayStation 5 as both a Standard Edition and a Collector’s Edition. The reveal also coincides with a new trailer that delves into the gameplay.
Dark Mass sees players take on the role of Alice, a deep-sea explorer who, alongside her brother Reed, stumbles upon the wreckage of an ancient ship. But beneath the ship lies they discover a manor lost to time, eerily untouched despite spending centuries in the ocean.
Alice decides to venture inside, but she soon realises that something is watching from the darkness, bound to the manor by a dark curse. Trapped within the manor’s decaying halls, Alice must now uncover the manor’s tragic past, solve puzzles based on real historical torture rituals, and make decisions that will ultimately define her fate.
Both the Standard Edition and Collector’s Edition will be published by SelectaPlay, with the Collector’s Edition having been designed “for horror fans and collectors,” bringing together a selection of physical items inspired by Alice’s journey, the mystery of the sunken manor and the unsettling atmosphere of the abyss.
The Standard Edition includes a physical copy of the game, along with an illustrated manual. Meanwhile, the Collector’s Edition includes the physical copy and manual, along with the following:
- Collector’s Box
- Official Art Book
- Lenticular postcard
- Alice’s turtle bracelet
- Original Soundtrack in Digipack format
- Exclusive Steelbook
In addition to the PlayStation 5, Dark Mass will be coming to the Xbox Series, and PC via Steam. The game is currently aiming for a fall 2026 release.
