It's an unnecessary reboot of the series. A few months ago Capcom expressed the desire to pump out more games from their franchises (most notably RE and DMC) more quickly. So, with that in mind, this is what we get.
Think of this as Capcom's response to Konami's release of Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, which was also a reboot/re-imagining.

Heh... Can you ever feel good about that knowing Capcom is also the producer of Resident Evils games ? & Street Fighters "i think" .
RE(s) started to be gay sometimes ago, i loved 4 & 5 but i really miss the Zombies & others creatures, but what could happen now ? :(
All the good producers start to fail harshly now :(
First thing I thought when I saw the trailer was: "The *** did they turn dante into? he looks like a emo hobo junkie who just snorted 10 pounds of coke"
Why Ninja Theory >.> God they suck ***. Unless you like Quicktime events I guess?
Well that's seriously disappointing. I hate how they gave him a emo-vampire look. *** twilight is ruining DMC now.

Why mus everything be twilight fault even though everything concerning those movies makes me gag.
My friends were going nuts about this too. I never played any DMCs, but personally I don't let a character's look stop me from playing a good game. Maybe I never get attached to characters in games, but that's just me. I'd lol if fans don't get this simply because of a hair change.
If this change makes logical sense then I don't care, if it doesn't and is just "Hurr alternate reality durr" then I'll be a bit miffed.
If what you said is right that it's a prequel before he got his demonic powers, it makes 100% sense. Hell, it may change white in the middle of the game for all we know.

That would be pretty cool imo.
I think they may have changed it because most people complained that it was Weaboo, so I suppose they had to try and make it look like Twilight because in their perception, Twilight is loved in the west.
It's not just the hair, he looks *** HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE.
the hell!?
the hell!?
Doesn't even look remotely the same.
Stop being so shallow! He might have a terrific personality!

Even with a terrific personality his junkie looks won't make me wanna admit that it's Dante >_>
it's now officially called vampire will cry, his guns fire sparkles.
Meh this will just blow over, I remember people going nuts when Nero was introduced.
Wow, this is so full of fail that I think my avatar speaks for this thread...
Looks like they're trying to "urbanise" it with the music choice and the graffiti-like logo as well as the change to Dante who now just looks like a thug.
Do not want.
Do not want.

I'll out gay you any day of the week!
DMC sold itself with an undercurrent of surreal 'have-at-ye' sexiness. Girls looked hot, guys looked hotter!
