Below is the official press release straight from Capcom. Hands up who knew that DMC4 was always going to make it to the Xbox 360... along with Assassin's Creed, Grand Theft Auto IV, Guitar Hero II - the list of games we have to do without on the silver console grows shorter each day.

The series appeal is not limited to games; an animated TV series to be broadcast on Japan's WOWOW network is slated to air Spring 2007. The latest iteration, Devil May Cry 4 will take advantage of each platform's hardware strengths to achieve the most stunning visuals in the series to date, and the introduction of a mysterious new protagonist will keep the action fast and fresh. Even before its release, Devil May Cry 4 has been met with tremendous anticipation, as fans patiently endured long lines at TOKYO GAME SHOW 2006 for the chance to play the demo. Devil May Cry 4 will be released simultaneously for the PLAYSTATION 3 and Xbox 360 platforms.
Capcom was among the first software developers in the world to make games for the next-generation consoles, and those efforts have been met with great success. In addition, Capcom's use of an integrated development environment is one of the many methods being employed to improve efficiency and help take advantage of the cutting-edge functionality in next-generation systems.
Capcom will continue to produce titles that appeal to users while pursuing a multiplatform strategy to help enhance profits.
