New Character "V" - Abilities?

[Ronin]

With the teaser of the new character called "V"....

We've got Nero with his Devil Breaker, but with many arms with their own special abilities and we got Dante who has all variety of weapons from melee & firearms.

What do you think V's abilities will be contributing to the demon hunters?

V's described as a demon summoner in the leaks so he probably brings that to the table.

Supposedly his summons last about as long as any melee attack for the other characters. Reminds me of the Lumen Sage from B2.

 

[Ronin]

If he's a summoning character, would they be like this?

 

[Absent Nova]

He will summon a Stand

@Absent Nova His stand's name is probably named Bad Religion or Godsmack.

This is probably Capcom's answer to Bayonetta's Torture or Climax attacks.

Instead of "fill up gauge to execute attacks" or "finish off the enemy when we tell you to", this will probably be a more manual, more balance DMC-style summoning mechanic.

When I first saw the trailer for DMC4, I was afraid it was gonna be a QTE-laden bulls*** with scripted events but things like Nero catching Credo's spears were totally manual and hinges fully on timing and frames, not QTE.

So maybe V's summoning is going to be like that.

 

[V's patron]

He's been revealed to be the client of the game so outside of his magic, he is the one with the most information on whats going on.
