This Dante statue is being created by Prime 1 Studio, which has a long history of masterfully crafting life-like statues of many famous pop culture icons from Batman toLudens, the mascot of Kojima Productions. However, fans of the series might want to brace their wallets if they want to take Dante home. Although Capcom didn’t state a price for the statue, statues in this collection usually start around $1100.
This statue seems to be the first of many celebrations for Dante and theDevil May Cryseries. Along with this Dante statue and the upcomingDevil May Cry 5: Special Edition, there have been some rumors circulating that the legendary devil hunter could make an appearance asthe next DLC fighter inSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate. And while this is simply a rumor at this time, even the possibility may be enough for fans of the franchise to get a little excited.
While theSmash Bros. crossover is still a mystery, one thing that is actively on players' minds isDevil May Cry 5: Special Edition.While most have just been happy at the special edition’s existence on next-gen consoles, there has been a bit of bad news for PC players.

However, PC, PS4, and Xbox OneDevil May Cry 5players do have something to look forward to. Although they won’t be receiving any graphical upgrades to the game, these players will have the opportunity to wield the Yamato asVergil in paid DLC.
