Hell Gates, or simply Hell Gate, is a transportation device which allows traveling between Human World and Demon World. It is the primary method of transportation between worlds, although it is not the only one: others known are Temen-ni-gru and direct summoning.

Many types of Hell Gates were featured through games and anime, although Fortuna's Hell Gate considered to be the only true one, and possibly the biggest.

Devil May Cry 4

The true Hell Gate and its three lesser copies feature prominently in Devil May Cry 4. A long time ago the true Hell Gate was sealed by The Dark Knight Sparda, who used Yamato as a key to the seal[1]. Recently the Order of The Sword sought Yamato to open the Hell Gates, which was a vital part of their plan. They have found it, but, although it was in their hands, they couldn't use it as the blade was broken.

To push forward their plans, Agnus, the Order's Chef Alchemist, creates three lesser Hell Gates, copies of the real ones[2]. He used the Devil Arm(s) to power the Gates, although it isn't clear from his replies which one(s) exactly he used. The three lesser gates, located in the outskirts of the island, allowed Berial, Echidna and her children, as well as Bael, Dagon, and their kin into Fortuna island.

Nero closes the gates as he chases Dante, but doesn't actually destroy them. Later, in the event when Nero used Devil Trigger first time in his life, Yamato was restored and taken by him. However later Sanctus tricks Nero and captures him, taking Yamato in the process. He gives it to Agnus, who opens true Hell gates, causing total chaos in the city.

As Dante returns to Fortuna to battle the Savior, he kills the escaped demons and uses the Devil Arms they relinquish to destroy the Gates. After Dante returns to the true Hell Gate, he battles Agnus and retrieves the Yamato, which he uses to destroy the final gate.

Other games

There are some other types of hell gates featured trough Devil May Cry games.
