The Dark Slayer Style is Vergil's personal style in Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition, and one of Dante's styles in Devil May Cry 4. As a warrior fallen from grace, Vergil can use the power of darkness to obtain new weapons and skills by leveling the style.^[1] The style itself performs much like Dante's Trickster Style.^[2]

In Devil May Cry 4, Dante obtains this style after receiving Yamato, but instead of being based on teleportation, it allows Dante to replicate a few of Vergil's skills with the Yamato.

TriviaEdit

• When Dante enters the Dark Slayer Style, he appears to do a motion of flipping his hair back, most likely as a nod towards Vergil's tendency to perform a similar action throughout Devil May Cry 3.
• When Dante is using the Dark Slayer Style, after he attacks using Yamato, it will disappear in a puff of blue smoke. Dante also mimics Vergil's war cry when he uses Yamato.
• When Dante enters the Dark Slayer Style, it is signaled by a purple color, mostly as a reference to the blue and red mix.
• The Dark Slayer Style is the only style in Devil May Cry 4 which cannot be upgraded.
