Getting To Know Tony Redgrave

Since theDevil May Crywas actually meant to beResident Evil 4, several fans speculate that Dante was originally Leon. However, the actual title revolved around a character named Tony Redgrave. He was an invincible man with a strange body capable of pulling superhuman actions. AsResident Evil 4becameDevil May Cry, “Tony Redgrave” became a moniker for Dante. Although the game doesn’t show off the character’s invincibility, it is still a pretty considerable part of his character.

What Devil May Cry Doesn’t Mention About The Sword, Sparda

It seems like Sparda acts as a downgraded version of Alastor, Dante’s most valuable weapon. Contrary to popular belief, Sparda isn’t inferior to Alastor by any means, and this is just a case of miscommunication from the game’s side. It can be observed inDante Must Diethat Sparda is the best weapon of choice. Since he can’t use his Devil Trigger to heal himself anymore, it wasn’t helpful outside of sticky situations. Sparda goes toe-to-toe with Alastor in its DT form without the need to transform.

Dante was 23 Years Old at the Starting of Devil May Cry

Guessing the age of game protagonists can be pretty meticulous. Since the dimension of time isn’t similar in every game, it can’t be understood with a degree of stasis. Looking at the chaotic lifestyle that he leads, he resembles someone who is in their early twenties. This speculation was confirmed by the voice actor of Dante, Drew Coombs. He shares that the actual storyline of the game presents Dante as a 23-year-old. However, considering how the franchise has spanned over five core titles, Dante is said to be 43 during the events ofDevil May Cry 5.
