In our review of *Devil May Cry* Season 1, we noted: "Devil May Cry is not without its flaws, including its horrendous use of CG, bad jokes, and predictable characters. Yet, Adi Shankar and Studio Mir have crafted a fun video game adaptation that doubles as a deranged, bonkers, and bold homage to and indictment of '00s Americana. If nothing else, it contains some of the best animation you’re likely to see this year, and its epic finale makes for a very effective tease for an even wilder second season."

The news of a Season 2 shouldn't come as too much of a surprise, given that series creator Adi Shankar had previously hinted at planning a "multi-season arc."
