The second season of Devil May Cry will debut on Tuesday, May 12, a little over a year after the first season was released. The first season, consisting of eight episodes, received significant acclaim from both fans and critics alike, marking it as one of Netflix’s standout offerings in 2025.
This new season will also feature eight episodes. Voicing the lead character Dante is Johnny Young Bosch. Scout Taylor-Compton appears as Mary Ann Arkham, known as ‘Lady,’ while Robbie Daymond voices Vergil. Hoon Lee portrays the villainous White Rabbit, and Kevin Conroy, who passed away before finishing his dialogue, receives posthumous credit as Vice President Baines.
According to Netflix, the synopsis for the second season reads: “A war between worlds ignites as Dante must battle the only force that mirrors his own: his estranged twin brother Vergil.” Dante will confront his past demons and the feelings of family he lost during childhood. With Vergil’s return, the narrative promises to explore complex themes of family and conflict.
