*** Their card in the capcom mobile card game TEPPEN adds to this. While most cards have flavour text that acts as a BadassCreed or context for the art, Behemoth's is a ''warning.''
---> If you do not with to die, do not oppose me.\\

* One from the perspective of the demons. In mission 16, some of the most powerful demons face off against Dante as he decends to the Qliphoth fruit. This could just be power progression, however place yourself in the shoes of those demons; [[ImplacableMan Dante]], [[TheDreaded the Son of Sparda,]] who has recently unleashed the power of the [[PhysicalGod Sin Devil Trigger,]] is heading to the Qliphoth fruit, the thing that gave Mundus his power. In all likelihood, these demons are desperately doing everything they can to stop Dante from becoming well and truly unstoppable.

** Malphas, Urizen’s [[TheDragon second in command]], is absolutely terrifying. Malphas herself is a woman with three individual upper bodies with a single arm each, with pearly skin and all fused to onyx like structures that glow purple. This is then fused to a giant, featherless, rotting bird, with wings somewhere between human arms and wings with dozens of insect legs pointing out of its forearm. Its head is utterly grotesque, [[BodyHorror with its eyes (if it has any) being swollen shut, and its beak resembling a nose and the lower beak being skin hanging loosely to its chin]]. Also, [[UncannyValley it has human teeth.]] The worst part is, the bird is hinted to be [[MeatPuppet sentient, and not only was unwilling in its assimilation]], this thing was adolescent, which is horrifying as it shows how ruthless demons can be, and also brings into question how big this bird would have gotten if Malphas hadn’t fused to it.

--> '''V:''' "You and I are one!" ''[while stabbing Vergil with his cane.]''

* The icing on the shitcake humanity is stuck in during the trailer: Humans are now FULLY aware of demons come with countless humans desperately trying to fight down hordes of colossal demons and being [[CurbStompBattle cut down. Badly]]. To add more to the horror factor, these demons are attacking people in [[DaylightHorror broad daylight]].

** The Nobodies return after almost 18 years and are as grotesque as ever, with [[BodyHorror grey flesh on their arm-like legs and exposed bone and muscle covering their body]], [[EyesDoNotBelongThere three eyeballs the size of its head]] poking out at random points, and a fifth skinless arm jutting out of their spine, with more muscle in it than the rest of the body combined. And if that wasn’t enough, knocking off their masks reveals their true face, [[EyelessFace a featureless mass of tendons]] with only it’s inhuman grin.

** V's victory against Vergil ain't much better. He [[DeathOfPersonality abs]][[SplitPersonalityTakeover orbs Vergil]] in to himself.
--> '''V:''' "You and I are one!" ''[while stabbing Vergil with his cane.]''
* The Nobodies are back and more disgusting and creepier than ever. Not only that, but when V fights them, [[ItCanThink they can talk]] and do more than [[TheHyena laugh and howl]], but can barely put half a word together. Sounding raspy like someone having trouble breathing while trying to speak. Niddhogg could at least form a coherent sentence.
--> '''Nodbody:'''"De-de-de-devvv...!" [After V mentions that his turn to play with the Devil Sword Sparda.]

--> '''V:''' "You and I are one!" [while stabbing Vergil with his cane.]

--> '''Nero:''' "I'm the one... ''[Close-up on his face from underneath his hood, revealing glowing yellow eyes and a wicked looking SlasherSmile]'' '''WITH POWER!!'''"

* Hard to see at first in the E3 trailer, but one segment has Nero losing his Devil Bringer to an as of yet unknown character. AdultFear immediately kicks in for anyone who has suffered a major injury such as this or has lost a limb. Nero gets better though.
* From the trailer, Nero has become a MookHorrorShow for any demons stupid enough to get in his path.

** Cavaliere Angelo, while less gruesome than Goliath, is actually one of Mundus's spawn. That's right, [[GreaterScopeVillain Mundus]] is still alive and active, and still creating new devils to kill Dante and Vergil.

** Cavaliere Angelo, while less gruesome than Goliath, has dark purple-black armor, carries a big glowing sword that is constantly sparking electricity, is twice the height of Dante, has demonic black bat wings that can act as shields, and has an apparent one-track mind of hatred against Sparda.

** In Nero's first playable section (serving as the demo), the demons have already taken over Red Grave City, and the aftermath is seeing numerous people that DiedStandingUp and darkly calcified or.. ''something'' akin to withered husks, their bodies left behind but their souls harvested. Breaking them apart yields no rewards, just what's left of their body messily falling apart in a way that's more organic than stone before fading to ashes and leaving behind miniature demon trees.

--> '''Nero:''' "I'm the one... ''[Close-up on his face from underneath his hood, revealing glowing yellow eyes and a wicked SlasherSmile]'' '''WITH POWER!!'''"

* Late in the game, we have a very creepy moment with [[MultipleHeadCase Malphas]] cornering V, who is in no shape to take her on, in the Underworld. Thank god [[BigDamnHeroes Nero showed up when he did]].

--> ''Something save me, cut me out of my destiny!''\\

--> ''Something save me, cut me out of my destiny.''

---> '''''Let me out!'''''

* Controversial as the song may be, ‘’Subhuman’’ still counts as quite a nightmarish track, as the lyrics continuously refer to an unknown malevolent force threatening to erupt. The lyrics in the second verse deserve special mention as it talks about begging to be saved from an untold destiny.

--> '''''Let me out!'''''

** The Behemoth is a disgusting, rhinolike beast with a gigantic mouth of crooked teeth. It's apparently so horrible and aggressive, it had to be chained up lest it turn on it's allies. When its chains are broken, two disgusting limb-like tongues emerge, flailing about madly at anything in sight.

* We see Eva shoving a young Dante into a closet from ''his'' perspective as it looks like demons are attacking their home. Dante might be half-devil, but he's also half-human and was also a ''child'', so seeing the naked AdultFear on Eva's face as she's telling him to proverbially hide himself with a new identity if she doesn't return will be highly traumatic to any kid, even future badass devil hunters.

* Also from the GA 2018 trailer, there are moments when V shows up with visible cracks on his face as if he's literally falling apart. Given his limp, ''he might be''.
[[spoiler: He very much is, in the later parts of the game he's slowly rotting away. Why? Because he's ''Vergil'', having cut his own humanity out of himself, and in doing so he's also created something much worse than himself.]]

** Just as well, the Red Soul Orbs have gone from the traditional {{Narm}} appearances everyone's familiar with to screaming, withered and almost squishy-looking crystalline faces. Considering the first deposit of them is right next to said withered humans, [[PoweredByAForsakenChild it's not hard to make the connections.]]

* Some of the newer demons featured in the trailers are particularly gruesome, likely taking influence from the more nastier demons from the reboot. And thanks to the RE Engine used in ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil7Biohazard'' and 2019 remake of ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil2'', every demons now introduced in GrossUpCloseUp style, displaying each of them in all its disgusting and vile glory.

---> It has begun. I will show you.. .your worst nightmares. I will give you... despair and... '''death'''!.
* The icing on the shitcake humanity is stuck in during the trailer: Humans are now FULLY aware of demons come ''5'' with countless humans desperately trying to fight down hordes of colossal demons and being [[CurbStompBattle cut down. Badly]]. To add more to the horror factor, these demons are attacking people in [[DaylightHorror broad daylight]].
