This is about as close of a confirmation as we are going to get without Capcom coming right and shouting from the rooftops, 'We are making Devil May Cry 5!'
As not everyone will be super familiar with domain names and Whois lookups and whatnot, I'll try and explain as concisely as I can:
The domain name 'devilmaycry5.com' has been ordered by someone. Visiting the domain yields only a 'page not found/site can't be found' error at the moment, but the most interesting thing is that upon using a Whois service to lookup the information surrounding the person or company, there are some very clear striking ties that link this entity to the domains monsterhunterworld.com and residentevil7.com - both of which currently under the stewardship of Capcom.
Now, while it is not radically uncommon for websites to share identical nameservers, I'd bet against it being just a coincidence.
Thoughts?
Edit: The Twitter embed BBcode is acting a little fruity. Here's the link to the tweet which helped connect a few of the dots:
