Quick notes

  • The twins drive the conflict. Dante and Vergil share Sparda’s heritage but pursue different paths.
  • Lady has an independent purpose. Lady enters the tower with her own objective and does not simply follow Dante’s orders.
  • Arkham and Jester complicate the route. The tower’s events involve manipulation as well as direct combat.
  • Sparda’s legacy shapes the weapons and stakes. References to Sparda explain why the twins’ family matters to the demonic world.
