"The demo consists of a sampling of sections from the full game, chosen to showcase Devil May Cry 4's varied locales and allows gamers to familiarize themselves with Nero's unique abilities," said the company.

Capcom expects the Xbox 360 demo to arrive on Thursday around 2AM PST, with the PS3 version coming in a bit later, around 2 or 3PM PST. The full game, meanwhile, is slated to hit PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on February 5.
