A big part of the Devil May Cry 5 Nero gameplay will be Devil Bringers, and we have already seen some of them in action in the new gameplay footage that has emerged online during Gamescom 2018. It seems like, however, we haven't seen everything regarding the matter yet.
New Devil May Cry 5 art surfaced online today, showing Nero with 8 different Devil Bringers, three of them yet to be detailed. One of them seems the Drill Arm briefly seen in the latest trailer, while the other two are completely new.

Devil May Cry 5 will be set in Red Grave City, where Nero will have to fight off a demon invasion and learn more about a demon tree that has taken root in the city.
The threat of demonic power has returned to menace the world once again in Devil May Cry 5. The invasion begins when the seeds of a “demon tree” take root in Red Grave City. As this hellish incursion starts to take over the city, a young demon hunter Nero, arrives with his partner Nico in their “Devil May Cry” motorhome. Finding himself without the use of his right arm, Nero enlists Nico, a self-professed weapons artist, to design a variety of unique mechanical Devil Breaker arms to give him extra powers to take on evil demons such as the blood sucking flying Empusa and giant colossus enemy Goliath.
The first arm Nico makes for Nero, the Overture Devil Breaker, looks plain in style allowing Nero to wear it inconspicuously throughout the city, but the hidden electric generator inside is enough to shock any demons that come too close. Adding a bit more versatility, the Gerbera Devil Breaker generates an intense heat that can be shot out as a highly powerful shockwave which can be used as a direct attack, reflect enemy projectiles, or even to propel Nero through the air and augment his evasion capabilities.
Devil May Cry 5 launches on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on March 8th.
