Future Devil is Devil Hunter's skill-check contract — A-tier on the contract tier list for PvP counter play, not the first pick for Hotel raid farming. Unlocking it requires thirty Eyes collected from targeted devil kills, First Class Hunter rank from rank up guide, and passing a rhythm minigame trial at the contract NPC. Players who rush Eyes without rank see turn-ins rejected; players who hit rank without parry fundamentals fail the minigame repeatedly. This guide orders the grind efficiently and points to Future Walker build for post-unlock stat allocation.
Step 1: Reach First Class Hunter
Stars from captain quests and mission board per divisions walkthrough. Future Devil NPCs gate dialogue until rank threshold — farming Eyes early still helps but turn-in waits on rank. Redeem codes once eligible for clan reroll toward Hayakawa amplifying contract value.
Step 2: Collect Thirty Eyes
Eyes drop from devils associated with Future Devil hunt quests — typically Floor Zero deep floors and mission-linked spawns on Floor Zero map. Party farming speeds kills; tag quest active before grinding. Track count in inventory or quest log. Combine session with devil flesh farming from devil flesh guide for weapon upgrade materials.
Step 3: Locate Trial NPC
After Eye quota and rank met, trial NPC marker activates — often HQ-adjacent or Floor Zero transition zone. Official coordinates shift with patches; cross-check Trello location cards if markers bug. Bring B-tier weapon minimum from weapons guide for escort fights en route.
Step 4: Rhythm Minigame
Trial presents timing prompts layered on standard combat UI. Listen for audio beats and watch visual cues — similar discipline to F parries in parry guide but on rhythm rather than telegraph animation. Failure usually resets minigame without consuming Eyes; repeat until clean run. PC input lag beats mobile here — PC controls recommended for trial attempt.
Step 5: Equip and Practice
Future Devil lands in inventory like any contract — equip at HQ, map counter skills to hotkeys. Duel in safe zones before carrying valuable loot through Black Market routes. Future Walker build prioritizes dexterity and health for punish windows after successful counters.
Future Devil vs Other Contracts
Raid mains should still pursue Octopus or Ghost for PvE after Future unlock — compare in tier compare tool. Future shines in invasions where human opponents commit readable combo strings. Not worth delaying entire hybrid path unless PvP is primary goal.
