Strength and vitality for enemies is usually also increased. Enemies gain access to Devil Trigger, which they enter after a set period of time has passed since the start of the fight. Must Die - Prefixed with the name of the main playable character (Dante Must Die in all games, Lucia Must Die in DMC2 and Vergil Must Die! in DmC: Devil May Cry).A similar intermediate difficulty called Son of Sparda is present in DmC: Devil May Cry. However, it is still less than Dante Must Die mode. Strength and vitality of enemies is increased even more than in Hard Mode. Very Hard - Difficulty in Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition comparable to the unique 'American Hard' difficulty in the original US edition of Devil May Cry 3.In DmC: Devil May Cry it is called Nephilim. In Devil May Cry 4 and Devil May Cry 5, it is called Son of Sparda. This is unlocked after beating the game on Normal. Hard - Bosses and enemies either deal more damage, or deal more damage and have higher vitality, depending on the game.It is called Devil Hunter in Devil May Cry 4, DmC: Devil May Cry, and Devil May Cry 5. Compared to other hack-and-slash games, Devil May Cry’s 'Normal Mode' is difficult. Normal - The default difficulty setting for each game.It is called Human in Devil May Cry 4, DmC: Devil May Cry, and Devil May Cry 5. In Devil May Cry it is directly tied to Automatic Mode, and is called Easy Automatic, while Automatic Mode is optional in Easy mode in 3. In Devil May Cry and Devil May Cry 3, it must be unlocked by dying 3 times on Normal Mode, or in Devil May Cry by using a Vital Star on the first mission. This mode is only available from the start in Devil May Cry 4 and Devil May Cry 5. Easy - Bosses and enemies have less health and deal less damage than normal.The player is allowed to keep items and abilities gained from each playthrough when moving to a higher difficulty, with the exception of Easy Automatic in Devil May Cry. Some games in the series feature cheats, DLC or other methods that allow the higher difficulty modes to be unlocked immediately, and starting out on a higher difficulty with a 'fresh character' is a common type of skill run for seasoned players. Typically, difficulties above the default will also alter enemy waves, having powerful enemies appear much sooner than they normally would. In addition, enemy behavior is altered: lesser demons become more aggressive, bosses will utilize their special attacks more often, and in the highest mode enemies even gain their own Devil Trigger. Enemies have more Vitality and deal more damage, making the main character seem weaker. All games start the player on a 'normal' difficulty, but, after fulfilling certain criteria, the player can opt to play through the story missions again on a higher difficulty.
