| Force Edge |
| Force Edge is a momento from Dante's father. The sword was used to defeat Mundus and seal the gaetway of the millenia for 2000 years. Dante has trained himself to learn the skills of a dark knight utilizing this sharp and indestructible sword, but has never realized the true potential of the sword... |
| The legendary lighting imbued sword is found where it was left centuries ago, impaled through the heart of the Judge of Death. Once aquired, it provides Dante with special abilities (like the ability to DT). |
| Dante's Hot... |
| The Gauntlets of Flame are worn on Dante's wrists to strengthen every kick and punch the element of fire. If you hold the circle button longer between each hit, it'll have a stronger effect when let go of. Since the Gauntlets are for close-range mainly, it becomes necessary for Dante to learn moves for them to increase their range of effectiveness |
| Sparda |

| The legendary Sword of Sparda is the true form of the Force Edge. The Sparda only assumes its true form after the Perfect Amulet is found. This is the strongest blade Dante acquires, although its powers are temporarily sealed. There is only one enemy that the sword is interested in slaying, and only then will DT be available again. The sword can be extended into a long spear-like weapon, and it can even take on a scythe shape. Using the Sparda, Dante can imitate skills learned with the Alastor. |

| Handguns |

| Dante has built his very own companions, two steathy steel automatic pistols he refers to casually as "Ebony & Ivory". These weapons are modeled after pistols his father once owned, but they were lost long ago. Dante shares a special relationship with these guns, and they are the only guns he truly needs in this battle against supernatural evils. Rapidly tap the X or square button to fire the guns rapid-automatic style. When Dante leaps into the air, it's possible to fire rapidly enough that the force of the guns will keep in in the air. |
| Shotgun |
| Dante's Hot... |
| This double barrel, sawed-off boom stick is a classic addition to Dante's arsenal. The weapon spreads a cloud of shrapnel in a wide cone in front of Dante. This is great to use against overwhelming numbers of enemies in tight spaces, because more than one enemy is hit by the blast. The range of the weapon is extremely limited, and does better damage at closer of a range. It's possible (& fun) to clear the entire game using only the Handguns and the Shotgun, with occassional help from the Needlegun |
| Needlegun |
| The only weapon that can be used underwater fires a thin needle at enemies. The incredible firepower required to shoot underwater makes this a deadly weapon. This weapon becomes immediately equipped while entering and unequipped upon exiting water. |
| Grenadegun |
| This portable hip cannon fires mini mortar shells at enemy targets. The range is minimal at best, and the weapon is heavy to lift and fire. The recoil from eah blast gives Dante a moment's pause between each shot. Due to its cumbersome weight and size, Dante cannot fire this weapon from the air. He must be firmly planted on the ground to fire a grenade. However, when the shells explode, shrapnel disintegrates within a short distance. Multiple close-quartered enemies can be struck by a single shot. |
| Nightmare-Beta |
| This frightening weapon encloses the forearm as well as the entire hand. The trigger is far up inside the device. Dante can fire it from air or the ground. The Nightmare-Beta fires a plasma projectile that bounces off the walls towards the enemies. It feeds of Dante's Devil Gauges, the the more devil power Dante has, the more powerful the shots are and the longer they rebound. However, this gun comsumes devil power and becomes very weak when the Devil Gauges are empy. This weapon is best used in conjunction with the Sword of Sparda. |
