DmC Devil May Cry Gets Bloody Palace Mode as Free DLC

Capcom has confirmed that it's going to release a free downloadable add-on for its upcoming DmC Devil May Cry, in the form of the trademark Bloody Palace Mode, which has appeared in previous titles of the series.

DmC Devil May Cry is a reboot of the long-running hack and slash series that's set to appear next week on the PS3 and Xbox 360, and later this month for PC.

As such, developer Ninja Theory and publisher Capcom have been revealing all sorts of interesting things about the game.

Now, the companies have confirmed via the community website that DmC will receive a free downloadable add-on after its release.

The DLC consists of the Bloody Palace Mode, a sort of survival one in which Dante must face off against more than 100 levels of demons and bosses.

The free update that includes the new mode will be released "very shortly" after the launch of the game, but it will only be available once you finish the game once.
