On March 13, 2018, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC owners will get to purchase the Devil May Cry HD Collection. This collection includes HD remasters of Devil May Cry, Devil May Cry 2, and Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition. Where is Devil May Cry 4 or even DMC? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯The price for this collection is just $29.99 (USD).
Devil May Cry (2001)
This is the one that started it all, starring a mature and subdued Dante, which matched the mood and tempo of the game’s sense of isolation during the exploration sequences and tough-as-nails boss battles. It’s also the game that inspired my favorite TV game ad of all time:
Devil May Cry 2 (2003)
Taking place after the events of the first Devil May Cry, this sequel strives for a more cinematic look and feel to combat, changing things up in how the camera behaves, but also taking extreme care to make the animations more natural and fluid. Plus, you can unlock and play as Trish, featuring her own unique weapons and move set.
Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition (2006)
Focusing on the origins of our favorite demon hunter, this prequel features a much younger and more rambunctious Dante who cares very little about how much damage he’s doing to even his own shop as long as he can chew his pizza and kick some butt. And he runs out of pizza.
Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition quickly took the spotlight as a fan favorite with the addition of combat Styles that significantly change the way you slay demons. These Styles can be selected and upgraded between each mission. This game also put a spotlight on Dante’s relationship with his twin brother Vergil, who is an unlockable character with his own move set and gameplay.

Since there was already an HD Collection released five years ago for these games, you can check out that trailer below. Why? Because there doesn't seem to be a new trailer for the PS4, XB1, and PC release to show off just yet.
This HD collection never came to PC, so 1 and 2 could only be played via emulation, the third game did have a Windows release but requires a few community made mods to function well, this includes adding widescreen resolutions, adjusting fov, adding anti aliasing (gedosato), and adding xbox controller support and button prompts, alongside required bug fixes.
DMC4 on the other hand has a great PC port, and has already been re-released 2 years ago as "Special Edition", which is also good, this collection will finally complete the series availability on the platform and provide a better way to play DMC3, which many consider to be the best in the series, so this package is important for a variety of reasons.
...Now if Konami would just put their MGS HD collection out on PC too i can put my 360 away.
