Devil May Enjoy Higher Framerate
Finally DmC: Devil May Cry was announced for PC. The game is set to be released in just a bit over a month - January 25th 2013. It came with some general marketing blabbering, some screenshots and a video which is smooooooth as butter...unfortunately YouTube just ruins it. Capcom are known for taking their sweet time with porting games to PC but why they delay the announcements just beats me.
Developed by QLOC S.A. for Windows PC, DmC Devil May Cry will include full AMD support, reinforcing the stunning visuals of the game. The title will feature both AMD Eyefinity multi display technology and AMD CrossFire™ technology, allowing gamers to harness the power of two or more graphics cards to dramatically increase the game’s performance. Senior Capcom Producer on DmC Devil May Cry, Alex Jones, commented “DmC Devil May Cry’s performance on AMD is amazing, it pumps our already incredible visuals and effects to the next level, making it an even more immersive and intense experience.”
The PC version will be compatible with both keyboard and mouse, Xbox 360® controller and all third party direct input controllers. Players can enjoy the game at 60 fps or even higher with no maximum limitation, creating a stunning visual experience for PC gamers.
Gamers that download DmC Devil May Cry via Steam will be able to take full advantage of features such as Cloud saving, achievements, friends support and leaderboards.
As you can see in their press release they show a lot of love for AMD but if they do their job properly NVidia users shouldn’t suffer...too much. Along with the announcement that its coming to PC Capcom also released the system requirements:

Glad to see that they are leaving the frame rate uncapped. It always throws me off when I see that. Capcom has been pretty good about porting their games recently, even if the games themselves haven't been spectacular.
Hopefully this one gets some good post launch support as well, that's something they should improve on.
