  1. It doesn’t hurt that it’s also weird, full of surprises, stupendously daft and often laugh out-loud funny – though not always for the intended reasons.

    It is very, VERY rare that a game is able to out shine it's predecessors, especially a game like DMC which has a game base spanning back toIt is very, VERY rare that a game is able to out shine it's predecessors, especially a game like DMC which has a game base spanning back to the PS2 days, but this in my opinion is the best in the series so far. The combat is slick, the story is great, Dante is exactly how you expect Dante to be years after DMC 3/4, there is just no aspect of the game that hasn't been improved on.

    Capcom are doing a great job at the moment with both their remakes (Resi 2) and new games (this). The game is very well optimised on PC, no signs of a generic "PC port" and actually feels like they put in effort in for the PC community.

    Fans of the series will feel right at home, new players may be a little confused at first, but I am sure YouTube by now has a "everything you need to know before playing DMC5" or something to catch you right up.

    All in all I highly recommend the game to anyone who is a fan of the genre, this is definitely going to be a GOTY contender for 2019.

    Devil May Cry 5 is the most beautiful game in the series! The stroy is simple, but interesting. The combat system is great and exciting,Devil May Cry 5 is the most beautiful game in the series! The stroy is simple, but interesting. The combat system is great and exciting, specially the new character V; but it could get a little confusing at first! The game even has 2 endings! The RE engine is well optimized and eye catching. The game has a lot to offer and you'll enjoy playing it even for the second run! In one word, DmC5 is worth your time and money! Full Review »
