Action-adventure video game franchiseDevil May Cryhas captivated gamers since the release of its first game,Devil May Cry, in 2001. Over the past two decades, the franchise went on to become one of the most entertaining and highly influential franchises. The game starts with Dante, a demon hunter with supernatural abilities, as he battles hordes of enemies in a dark and gothic world.
Being the son of the demon Sparda and the human Eva, Dante possesses superhuman abilities, including immense strength and agility, as well as a deep connection to the supernatural world. Fans often wonder what would happen if Dante battles other Demonic characters from franchises like Marvel, so here is a list of 5 demonic Marvel characters that will have a hard time beating Dante in a battle.
5) Satannish
Created by Dormammu, Satannish is one of the most powerful demons on Earth. He possesses great mystical powers that allow him to open portals, send mystical rays, create mystical barriers, and other multiple abilities.
It is easier to beat Satannish outside his realm, and given Dante’s accelerated strength, mobility, stamina, and durability, he has an advantage by being more mobile as compared to Satannish’s size.

4) Zarathos
Zarathos, an immortal demon, thrives on the world’s negative energy such as sin and dark emotions. Despite being an intelligent trickster, he was fooled by Mephisto into bonding with Johnny Blaze, enslaving the demon within the human counterpart, and creating the iconic Ghost Rider.
Apart from having superhuman abilities, Dante is also an excellent trickster. Zarathos getting fooled by Mephisto explains a lot about his intelligence level, giving Dante an advantage.
3) Nightmare
The ruler of Nightmare World, Nightmare, draws power from the dreams of living beings as they sleep. He has also battled against many other Marvel superheroes, such as Doctor Voodoo, Moon Knight, Black Panther, Venom, and Spider-Man.
It may seem like Nightmare is unbeatable, however, he is entirely dependent on humans’ dreams to draw power. So, if there were no dreams, Nightmare would cease to exist and with his high intelligence, Dante wouldn’t have a hard time fighting Nightmare.

2) Mephisto
One of the most familiar demons in the Marvel universe, Mephisto has tricked people into believing that he is Satan, thanks to his shapeshifting abilities. By keeping him away from his realm, it’s easier to defeat him.
On the physical level, Dante has the upper hand. Thanks to abilities like Demonic Power Manipulation and Telekinesis, combined with his Regenerative Healing Factor, he can easily beat Mephisto.
1) Blackheart
A powerful demon created by Mephisto, Blackheart possesses supernatural powers, including superhuman strength, speed, and endurance which are magical in nature. He has many other strong abilities, like telekinetic and telepathic powers, the ability to levitate, teleport inter-dimensionally, change his size and physical form, heal himself, ability to generate various forms of energies for destructive purposes, and has very high intelligence.
It is believed that Blackheart has no weaknesses but some also claim that the blood of an innocent person can apparently harm him. The two characters are equally strong, it only comes down to the level of intelligence each character possesses.
