Devil Bringer

The Devil Bringer is the "weapon" that takes the form of Nero's right arm. Its origins remain a mystery but it bestows upon Nero incredible power, including the ability to bend space and time to pull himself across distances instantly and pull enemies to Nero. Nero states, after receiving the Yamato, that "From that day forth, [his] arm changed and a voice echoed 'Power. Give me more power.'" It seems to also give him incredible strength, as he is able to parry the sword strike of Berial, who is almost five times Nero's height, with his Red Queen. The story seems to focus some attention on the Devil Bringer, its powers, and its origins. It also seems to disturb Kyrie, the main female lead in DMC4, that Nero possesses the Devil Bringer, possibly because it is obviously of demonic origin, but after saving her from Sanctus, she comes to understand Nero and accept his arm. The arm allows Nero to absorb certain items, such as the Yamato, and gain their abilities. It is by doing this that Nero attains his Devil Trigger.

Red Queen

The Red Queen is a version of a specially designed weapon used by the Order of the Sword created by their chief scientist Agnus. It is unique in its motorcycle type accelerator handle which can be used to rev it up to release a flaming propellant along the blade with a powerful strike. However, it is later shown that Credo too, has a handle similar to Nero's but no evidence to show it is used for the same purpose.

The Red Queen itself is specially modified by Nero allowing it to be revved-up three times and this entire build up of exhaust can be released all at once for a single powerful blow or with separate strikes. This and several other modifications makes the Red Queen nearly impossible for anyone but Nero to wield[1]. Judging by the shape of its blade, the Red Queen is more than likely modeled after the German Grosses Messer (lit. "big knife").

Blue Rose

Nero's personally designed long ranged weapon. The Blue Rose is a unique over under barrel style revolver, this design allows it to fire two magnum rounds with each pull of the trigger. Nero is the only member of the Order of the Sword allowed to wield a firearm such as the Blue Rose because they believe guns to be dishonorable.

Like Dante's own Ebony and Ivory the Blue Rose can be charged by Nero channeling energy from the Devil Bringer into the revolver. This charge ability has three charge levels each requiring more power to be channeled from Nero's demonic arm and is represented by the Devil Bringer glowing different colors.

When the Blue Rose is fired while Nero is in his Devil Trigger form Summoned Swords similar to Vergil's are created that spin around and into the enemy, charging up the shot creates multiple swords that spin around you until the shot is fired.
