Sweet Surrender is a DLC Devil Breaker that can be equipped by Nero in Devil May Cry 5.
Description[]
Sweet Surrender is a white prosthetic hand with a soft rubber-like texture, a speed setting dial on the back of the hand, and decorative gold on the forearm. When in use, it glows pale green.
File[]
- Sweet Surrender
- A Devil Breaker created by Nico to relieve Kyrie's tension.
- Nero is too rough to do the job without hurting Kyrie, so this device is made of soft materials. Its vibration feature is especially effective at alleviating shoulder and hip pain.
Gameplay[]
Sweet Surrender is added to Nico's store menu if the DLC is purchased, and can be manually equipped at the start of Mission 02: Qliphoth. However, if the player has the DLC it can randomly spawn as early as Mission 01: Nero. It is in the highest price band for Devil Breakers at a cost of 3500 in the store, the same as the Buster Arm.
Sweet Surrender has no offensive functions and can only deal damage with its Break Away move. Instead, it offers very slow but constant healing while activated (with the Devil Breaker button turning it on and off in the same manner as Tomboy), or a larger one-off heal (3 segments of the health bar) by using its Break Age move. Notably, it is the only method of manually restoring health that does not affect the stage ranking, which is probably why it is so expensive.
Like all DLC weapons, it cannot be equipped in Bloody Palace mode.

Trivia[]
- Rather than saying its name when he switches to it, Nero just says "Devil Breaker."
- Despite it having a hand, Nero uses the reload animation for a handless Devil Breaker when using Color Up with it equipped.
- This Devil Breaker is likely a humorous play on electric shoulder massagers like the Hitachi Magic Wand, which was first produced in the '70s and quickly repurposed by several users as a sex toy. Eventually the brand embraced that practice, blurring the line between vibrators and electric massagers marketing-wise.
