Totalvideogames.com have a QandA with Hiroyuki Kobayashi- Some choice quotes below, click on link for more:
While both characters share some similarities - both can attack with a combination of sword and gun - there are a number of differences. The most obvious of these is Nero's Devil Bringer with which he can grab enemies and smash them into the ground, draw them towards him or obtain items that were previously out of reach. Nero's ability to grab enemies really makes a change to the way a player can attack an enemy. When Dante attacks the force of his blow will send the enemy away from Dante, but Nero can attack using his sword or gun and then reel the enemy back in to follow up with another attack. By repeating this process the player can rack up some really impressive combo chains.
Nero is a young knight in the Order of the Sword, a religious order based in the coastal city of Fortuna, that worships the legendary Sparda and whose mission is to protect the city from demonic attack. When Dante bursts in on an important ceremony and kills the High Priest and other members of the Order, Nero fears for the safety of his childhood friend Kyrie and attacks Dante. This is when the player will take control of Nero for the first time.
Certainly some people have commented that it was an odd decision, but the introduction of a new main character has a number of positives. Firstly it allows us to introduce a new gameplay mechanic, the Devil Bringer, and this opens up some really interesting combat opportunities. Secondly we are not just introducing Nero, but also the characters that make up his world and a new setting for the series with the town of Fortuna
Nero charges up his sword using a throttle system, just as if it was a motorbike. In practice, this involves the player pressing L1 or LB, for PS3 and 360 respectively, in order to fill up a total of three sections of the Exceed Gauge. Getting the timing just right will really help as you can fill all three sections with just one press if you get it spot on.
