Kuro Game has officially announced that Punishing: Gray Raven will launch its much-anticipated collaboration with Devil May Cry 5, titled Lamento di Phantasma, starting from August 6 until September 19. This crossover event brings in two iconic DMC characters—Dante and Vergil—alongside a slew of event content including exclusive story missions, banners, skins, and anniversary rewards.
