I'm lost... DMC4 has already shipped.


Are you talking about DMC5? If so, as it stands today, we've announced no such product so there's nothing I could say about it.

I think he's still part of Capcom Studio 1. Just out of curiosity, you didn't like DMC 4, and rather have Tanaka do the next one?

Oh yeah I do, Tanaka messed up DMC2 but because of it he made up big time in DMC3 and came to understand the series and it showed that he understood. Kobayashi on the other hand implemented a commercial philosophy because of the success RE4, which IMO just raped the series with DMC4, petty, unevolved halfassed combat mechanics, anime/rpg influence instead of the grit and dark atmosphere of before. DMC4 was a step back from DMC3 and a change of feel.


Most probably Kobayashi will return... I just wanted to know if Tanaka was still around so that I can have some hope left for the series in the future :(
