• ABILITIES •
Accelerated Healing
Dante is capable of rapidly healing from serious wounds without breaking so much as a sweat. He survived being ambushed by multiple Hells Prides who basically shishkabob'd him, has been stabbed more times than he can count, and pulled himself off multiple swords while said swords were embedded in things. You'd have to do something insane like chop off his head to stop Dante from healing from any wounds he gets.
Superhuman Senses
Thanks to his demonic heritage Dante's senses are enhanced; his vision is improved, as is his sense of smell and his vision. He is also capable of sensing other demons in his vicinity.
Superhuman Strength
Dante possesses incredible raw bodily strength even while in human form. He is able to easily throw around street thugs and an obese prison warden. He is also able to easily snap handcuffs. He can shatter stone with little difficulty and often overpowers demons much larger and more imposing than himself with ease. Dante also once easily blocked a punch from Nero's Devil Bringer and even casually forced him back with enough force to destroy a wall behind him and knocked down Nero with a single push to the back. He's even strong enough to block The Savior's punch with Rebellion without showing much strain. Dante's display of superhuman strength, endurance, and resistance to injury shows that his physical condition is much tougher and more efficient than that of even most of the powerful demons, allowing him to exert his supernaturally enhanced muscle power to vast proportions without fear of injury or fatigue.
Superhuman Speed & Agility
Dante is superhumanly fast, and in some cases appears to be teleporting. During his younger years, was capable of swinging his sword so fast that raindrops cannot escape his blade over a wide area. Also while Dante was running down the side of Temi-Ni-Gru, he shot Rebellion, causing it to fall so quickly it began superheating the air around it, then he chased his sword fast enough to catch up to it and eventually reaching a speed great enough that the air around his hand became superheated as well. Dante's reflexes are fast enough that he can dodge bullets, slice them, shoot them out of the air, and even catch them with his teeth. Dante is extremely agile as well; able to jump to great heights or even balance himself on a flying rocket, as well as run up vertical walls. In addition, his agility allows him to perform amazing feats of acrobatics that easily surpass even the finest human acrobat.
Superhuman Durability & Stamnia
Dante is capable of going on hours-long missions with constant fighting, no rest, food, or water, and shows no fatigue. Alh, his endurance does have its limits, a fact that was taken advantage of by Arkham. Dante's durability has been shown to allow him to simply shrug off wounds that would either disable or outright kill a normal demon, such as being impaled through the chest with his own sword. He was also punched by Beowulf so hard that his body made an imprint in the stone ground, but Dante showed no signs of injury. His teeth are also strong enough to catch bullets He is capable of withstanding Hellfire and lightning strikes with no signs of injury. He was even capable of withstanding an impale-like attack from Sid empowered by Abigail with no response of pain. Despite some of the physically punishing things Dante has gone through, he has the ability to move forward with little difficulty. Even while impaled with Hell Pride's scythes lodged in his torso and arms, he casually walks about his office.
Demonic Power Manipulation
Dante is capable of channeling his own demonic energies into the things around him, most notably his guns Ebony and Ivory in order to produce charged shots and fire without needing to reload. He can also channel it into the air around his feet giving himself for a neat little double jump.
Sin Devil Trigger
Due to his half-demon physiology, Dante can release his demonic power through his Devil Trigger. This allows him to shift from his human guise to his demonic visage. Not being purely cosmetic, Dante's already superior physical capabilities are amplified significantly and this form grants him the ability to fly.

Can make an ultrasonic whistle. Painful for most people and total hell for dogs demons.
Ice Barrier
Regardless of your element, you can now create barriers of ice.
• SKILLS •
Skilled Hand-to-Hand Combatant
While using gauntlet weapons, Dante has been shown to be highly proficient at hand-to-hand combat, using various martial arts techniques, including Bruce Lee's one-inch punch. He is also capable of defeating lesser demons completely unarmed with little difficulty. In his second fight with Nero, Dante outclassed his nephew with solely hand-to-hand combat upon being disarmed, soundly knocking him down and taking Yamato from him.
Weapon Proficiency
Dante is proficient with a variety of weapons, including swords, scythes, gauntlets, and even unorthodox supernatural weapons. He displays an impressive ability to judge the capabilities of weapons almost as soon as he picks them up.
Marksmanship
Although he is aided by his superhuman precision in gunfights, Dante has an innate mastery of any firearm he comes in contact with. He is capable of shooting Ebony and Ivory in two different directions at once, and can aim with such accuracy that his bullets stack on the hilt of Yamato.
Keen Intellect
An often overlooked aspect about Dante's abilities is his analytical skills. He showcases these skills in the form of a talent for reading people; he accurately assessed that the seemingly gentle Modeus was interested in killing him for his soul, and that Modeus was going to try to take revenge against him for killing Baul. He's also easily deduced and figured out the Familiars' intentions to atone during Mission 18 of Devil May Cry 5. His knowledge about demons and the demon world, as well as his work as a private investigator, put his intelligence to be above average. He's also a combat genius, comes up with various tricks and cunning fighting styles to destroy his enemies. As described by the alternate universe version of Shadow, Dante has a sharp mind, able to instantly understand the true extent of Mundus' generals' power in the alternate universe and that they got enough power to form an independent government to oppose the Demon King. He also displayed a great knowledge about magic, as he easily figured out the magic used by the alternate Trish.
