It seems Capcom wants buyers of the upcoming DmC to be as close to Dante as I want to be. Today they have announced that preorders of the game on the Capcom Store will net buyers a free replica of Dante’s pendant. If the game’s story is close to the original then the pendant is the very same one that Dante inherited from his parents.
Tangible game objects are much cooler than DLC skins if you ask me, although one possible downside to this preorder incentive is that there’s no word if a preorder through the Capcom Store will also grant access to the Vergil’s Downfall DLC. If the Capcom Store does not offer Vergil’s Downfall to preorders, then buyers will have to pick and choose between the pendant or the DLC (via Gamestop preorders). That’s not fun!
