Xbox Live have conducted a brief interview with Alex Jones, Capcom USAās producer on DmC Devil May Cry. Joining him is Tameem Antoniades, creative director of developer, Ninja Theory, who are developing the game under Capcom Japanās guidance.
Jones says that DmC is an āintensely collaborativeā project, especially in the character department, and that Capcom Japan are providing guidance to ensure that the gameās combat is up to par. Upon being asked if Capcom see Bayonetta — developed by the original creator of the Devil May Cry series — as a competitor, Jones replies that DmC is āsquarely competingā with Bayonetta in terms of how the game feels in your hands.
However, he adds, the area that he feels DmC will not compete with Bayonetta in, is tone and storytelling. This is an area where Capcom are giving Ninja Theory a large amount of creative freedom, as it is their area of expertise.
