Matt Walker, one of the producers for
Devil May Cry 5, took to Twitter to answer questions from fans about the game. Unfortunately, some of the answers dash hopes about more playable characters. When asked about possible
Devil May Cry 5 DLC that would make characters like Lady and Trish playable, Walker confirmed that Capcom has finished development on the game. In another comment, he confirmed that no more content is planned.
Here is the first comment from Walker on
Devil May Cry 5 DLC, where he said he would have liked to have seen “the ladies playable too.”

@CapcomUSA_ @tomqe @gypsyOtoko I've been hearing rumors of a ladies night dlc. Is there any validity at all to these or is DMC 5 finished?
Matt Walker @retroOtoko
Unfortunately dev on DMC5 is finished. I'd personally like to see the ladies playable too. We can only hope that at some point we can convince the people up top that it's worth doing.

The follow-up comment was in response to someone asking about a playable version of Vergil. Here, Walker specifically said, “Unfortunately we don’t plan on adding any more content to
DMC5.” In this comment, he also noted that
Resident Evil 2 was a success and he hopes to see more games in the series.

Unfortunately we don't plan on adding any more content to DMC5. In terms of RE, I sure hope there are more titles in the works cause RE2 was a huge success. ^^

In other comments, Walker talked about other people who appeared, or rather didn’t appear, in
Devil May Cry 5. First, when it came to Kyrie, she didn’t appear physically because it wasn’t in the budget.

@gypsyOtoko Was she planned to be in the game since the beginning? Or someone decided to remove her later in the development? I'm really curious about this! I'd also love to see her if you decide to show her in future DLCs!
Matt Walker @retroOtoko
Good question. Honestly as much as we wanted to have her in the game physically, we only had so much budget allocated to characters, and we chose those you see in the game, so really it was from the beginning.

As for Vergil, Walker explained that he doesn’t look the way people may expect due to time spent in another realm.

Why the face of vergil in DM5 is not the same as that of dante to persar that they are twin brothers?
Why did not he take the same face of the model actor?
by the way excellent DMC is back.
Matt Walker @retroOtoko
We wanted them to look a little different partly so that they'd each have their own distinct look, but then also the idea is that Vergil's changed a bit since he was in the demon realm for so many years.

Sadly, Walker’s talk with fans didn’t reveal any details about the upcoming
Devil May Cry anime series. As people may recall, Adi Shankar announced in
November 2018 that he is working on a
Devil May Cry series
. When someone asked if it would be connected to
Devil May Cry 5, Walker noted that he had no information to share.

@gypsyOtoko Never paid much attention to the lore in @DevilMayCry until DMC5 (loved it). There's a rumored Anime coming out at some point.. will it expand on the lore of DMC5 or be another stand alone in the universe? I love the Sparda lore with the current DMC5 crew. Any news?
Matt Walker @retroOtoko
Unfortunately I don't have any info on the anime at this point. ^^;
