    El mejor juego que existe, al menos en términos de gameplay, no existe un juego mas completo, complejo y profundo, fácil de aprender y muy difícil de dominar, por no hablar de sus gráficos bestiales gracias al RE engine, o su música dinámica, una verdadera pieza maestra que vuelve para recordarles a todos, que los juegos, siguen siendo juegos y lo mas importante siempre sera el gameplay

    Amazing gameplay and music. My only gripe is that the game wasn't that long and doesn't make a ton of sense, and that there was a bit of confusing amount of bonus purchase content. I'd like to receive the whole game please. It's definitely one of the best DMC games

    Although its story and environmental design leave much to be desired, Devil May Cry 5 is a superb and insanely fun hack and slash title that no action fan should miss out on.

    A must-have if you enjoy character action, the game feels incredible and the skill ceiling is so high. The adrenaline rush of chasing that SSS rating is unmatched, paired with amazing life-like visuals thanks to the RE Engine and a soundtrack that you will never get out of your head.

    Devil Trigger slaps so hard, and may be the best song ever made.

    DMC 5 was built using the RE Engine from Resident Evil 7 and this game looks better than those two previous RE games. Facial animations look real with huge detail, the lighting made the game looks real at times and the level design is amazing, maybe a little bit linear but amazing.
    I did like the story, even that i think it made reference to the previous games that i haven't played... I will eventually.
    But combat was a little bit... well... meh... it wasn't bad, but is not perfect either. In the game the player will be switching between Dante, Nero and V, each character has their unique and different combat style and upgrades that can be done with red orbs that the player will found through the level,back at the combat, at the moment you get use to play as one character the game forces you to play as another and now you most adapt to that character combat style, so... i never fell 100% comfortable with this combat style switch.
    Now moving quickly to the performance... woow!!!! Using a GTX 1080 Ti this game runs amazingly smooth with no fps drops what so ever without using too much GPU and CPU usage
    Aside from that DMC 5 is an amazing game that is worth your time.    … Expand

    It's pretty annoying that it keeps saying "DISMAL" during the beginning of every fight, and situations where doing anything else would be bad strategy. Wish I could turn that stuff off and just play the game without it trying to rank everything I'm doing.

    There are some glitchy things where something may not seem possible until you see someone do it, and thus know to just keep trying.

    In many instances during battle you can't tell what combo you're doing or at what point of a specific combo you're at (it's just chaos). Which pretty much defeats the whole idea of the combat type.

    Tips only show up on the loading screen, and they automatically disappear instead of having you press a key to continue. Many of them disappear too fast.

    It seems like a console port that wasn't thoroughly done. Some annoying things like not being able to press space or the keypad "enter" as equivalents of the main "enter" key. And instead, the "forward" key (E for me) has that function.

    Many of the items/abilities in the game are unclear on how they should be used. A good game doesn't make you search the internet for instructions.

    There are so many combinations of keys/moves. I couldn't remember them all. Thankfully there's an "auto" mode that randomly chooses and performs various combos.

    If you have your equipment/devil breakers in a certain order then lose/use one, you can't add back the same one in the same place. You either have to put it at the end or tediously reorganize everything.

    At the end there's a fight scene that you control when the credits are rolling, then it switched to directions and when I press escape to pause it skipped the entire thing.    … Expand

    Another RE Engine game from Capcom, and another yet again visual treat for us PC gamers, no doubt.

    First off, I have to say that I didn't play, back in the day, the original DMC games, didn't have a console and I only got to play DMC 4 on my PC when it came out, but didn't finish it (I needed a better PC back then, the game looked amazing on DX10 and all new'ish stuff and tech from    Another RE Engine game from Capcom, and another yet again visual treat for us PC gamers, no doubt.

    First off, I have to say that I didn't play, back in the day, the original DMC games, didn't have a console and I only got to play DMC 4 on my PC when it came out, but didn't finish it (I needed a better PC back then, the game looked amazing on DX10 and all new'ish stuff and tech from those days, but I didn't have enough power to enjoy it fully).

    I did play DmC, the reboot, and I didn't felt it was compelling enough to play a lot more than I did, as an action hack and slash game it did its job, yeah, quite decently, although the rest of the game, coming from my limited knowledge of the DMC lore...I didn't feel it so I can only imagine that the proper DMC fans didn't, either.

    But well, I do enjoy these type of games with really good character based combat that is not just mashing buttons nonstop, and has some thought behind it. And man, does DMC 5 has that and the some more, yeah, it does. This game's combat is Amazing, with a capital A indeed. The more you play, the deepest you go into tapping your long dwelling skills dormant inside, that's for sure, there's just so much stuff to do, combine, and improvise, and all of this in split of a second, fast, action packed moments. Yeah, I like games that put my reflexes to the test, that's for sure, as an old school shooter player, that's my jam for sure, so when it comes to action combat games like this, I feel at home here and I can feel my skills and understanding of the game's mechanics growing more and more every moment. That's when you know you're playing a great game right there, among other things.

    On the PC settings / "port" department well, it's the RE Engine, it's incredible what this engine can do, with its Physically Based Rendering (PBR), everything looks quite realistic and the character models, specially, are incredible, more so in cut scenes of course.

    My only small complaint about the PC version is that they implemented mouse and keyboard support, but it feels incomplete...well because it is. Moving the camera with the mouse is well done, I'd say even better than with a gamepad, of course, it's a mouse, it provides more freedom, but when it comes to keyboard controls...meh, some keys cannot be used, like TAB or Left Shift, or most of the right hand side part of the keyboard (oh yeah, I said right hand side...because I'm left handed, and I use that area a LOT). So, being left handed it's quite difficult to use any decent setup, because only the arrow keys can be mapped, not any surrounding keys, and not the Numpad, which according to the keymap menu....it's like it doesn't even exist. That feels poorly done, and I was expecting better coming from the nice PC controls RE 2 Remake has, or even RE 7. Maybe a patch could improve this, but I'm just playing with my trusty Dualshock 4, which is good enough of course.

    Also, it feels like the PC version is being held back a little bit by console parity, since many of the graphic settings (those set to "Variable") will only be active in cut scenes, and not in the actual gameplay. This makes the game run even better than RE 2 or 7, sure, but was it really necessary on the PC? I don't think so, and it should've been an OPTION for the player to choose from. Hopefully a patch can make this right too, so we can have an even better looking experience which, don't get me wrong, it already looks incredible, and the fluidity of the combat and the game in general really shows.

    All in all...another great hit by Capcom, this is just amazing how right after the GOTY contender that was RE 2 back in January, we now get another one here with DMC 5. Capcom is on a roll here, and I say keep 'em coming!! We need more Capcom franchises brought back on the RE Engine, this has so much potential, for any platform be it console or PC.

    Very, very solid 9/10, doesn't get the perfect score only because the poor mouse and keyboard controls: yes, this is better with a gamepad, that doesn't mean a PC game should have sub par options for the other input method, it could've been better, but well, it's just that, nothing more.

    Thank you, Capcom, for all these amazing games.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Devil May Cry Continues... This sentiment makes me giddy with joy as a gamer.

    Setting aside the character design aesthetics of DMC:Dmc it was a competent game, but one that lacked heart and soul of everything that made DMC series into what it was.
    With this entry all is forgiven and forgotten as this is An Absolute Blast to play and even more since it reminds me of the finger hurting combo/switching techniques required to get the Smoking Sexy Style that gave DMC 3 it's legendary status.
    Special shout out to Nico for feeling right at home in the crazy world of DMC hotties.

    I had a full on joyous experience playing through all the protagonist added with nostalgic feelings from DMC 1, DMC 3&4. Even though the story is not as deep, but it has never been a focal point in any from this series.
    The game play is near flawless and the weapon switching and style switching mechanics were fun once you crossed the minor learning curve. Each of the three protagonists have a unique play style of their own which served to keep it fresh and challenging to achieve the SSS ratings.

    Minor gripes of course exist. Would have liked Dante to be more playable and would have also enjoyed if Vergil Returning was not the whole and sole reason for this game to exist. But I am happy none the less since future games in the series have potential for much more varied story lines. Also would have loved for Trish and Lady to have a more significant role, but this can be rectified in a sequel as well.

    If u ever loved Dante's Cocky one liners or fell in love with Dante rocking out with Nevan in DMC 3 or wanted to slap Nero so he could be more cooler like his Dad in DMC 4; You will love the experience this game provides you and if you are fan of the Series I can bet this will bring back all the good feels.
    If you are not it is also a good place as a starting point to get a feel of what this series is like.

    You can use 3 characters each one with unquiet move stets and also you can upgrade in the "skills tree" that the game have. May be the ost is not the best but... works.

    In fact, there couldn't be a greater diverging contrast between 2 games from the same makers like DMCV and RE2 Remake; RE2 is amazeballs in every way (5 playthroughs already, and I'm still at it!) despite a minor dent in its gameplay mechanics, but DMCV needed another year in the workshop - honest. For such a "Big Game", the general vibe it exudes is just "silly and unserious" like the developers where making it to be a "Big Joke" instead.
    Past Nero's 1st? chapters and 2 into V's, and my fingers were getting the cramps! Like, when was the last time that happened?! Cos I'm literally mashing the same buttons throughout.
    Devil May Cry: DmC stills stands as my fave in the series; it had a cool story, cool graphics (for its time) and enjoyable gameplay! And you find it's only fans of the original who dis it.
    PS: Whoever came up with the silly idea of making a Devil Arm out of bananas, or spoons and forks, most definitely didn't take the making of this game seriously!    … Expand

    DMC 4 was a fun game for a few days, it looks absolutely stylish, has a great soundtrack but i found the level design to be lacking. Especially late game i ran through the same corridors and found it quite boring.

    The game ran without problems and is one of the best looking ones of this generation. While i know that the game is meant to be replayed i could not push myself to do it.

    I wanted to like DMC5 more, but I couldn't.

    For starters, I was hooked from the first trailer and in one sense I'm not disappointed at all. This game is absolutely STUNNING. It's undoubtely one of the prettiest games I've ever played. And it knows it. Because it's presentation is so over-the-top insane it couldn't be forgiven if it was another title. I'm talking about high-fidelity    I wanted to like DMC5 more, but I couldn't.

    For starters, I was hooked from the first trailer and in one sense I'm not disappointed at all. This game is absolutely STUNNING. It's undoubtely one of the prettiest games I've ever played. And it knows it. Because it's presentation is so over-the-top insane it couldn't be forgiven if it was another title. I'm talking about high-fidelity japanese panache. That goes from photorealistic cinematics and intricately detailed character models to hardcore eye-candy babes and mind-blowing antics. All coupled with some immersive soundtracks and voice acting. On top of all that, the game is not only gorgeous but runs like butter. Mad props to optimization.

    Where else it is most praised, however, I have to disagree. Gameplay. It's not that good. Best hack 'n slash ever? Hardly. First off, the controls are a mess. There's no way you're playing them on default without a rebind. And good luck on using mouse and keyboard. Also, if you're sporting a Dualshock, there's a detour you should take by installing a mod with the proper layout. Because you're gonna do A LOT of button-mashin'. Even though there is a rich variety to skills that implies some training and mastering, the game never gives you the opportunity to do so, for two main reasons: 1. It's always counting, meaning the combo meter will reset quickly if you idle or take your time to strategize or to even remember all the skill moves and abilities that you have (because you're constantly thrown between characters and playstyles); 2. It prioritizes 1v1 combat and there are few area-of-effect attacks even though you're always crowded by foes, so much so the camera will betray you and you won't even see what freaking combo or move you're actually performing, so you better off smashing every joint of your pad and hope by the end you'll be rated zZz for letting the game play itself.

    To make matters worse, the level design is straight-up LAZY. They must have been very proud of the groundbreaking visuals because this other department was half-baked AF. There's the ruined city, there's the ruined cemeteries and there's the demon tree, which gets even worse by late game - and they're all deserted. The encounters follow the same thread: advance from this arena to this corridor to get to the next arena and so on, and maybe with some godawful and unresponsive platforming thrown in the mixture.

    And lastly, the story. It's barebones and generic, and most of the characters are ultimately wasted - which is a shame, considering how cool they all are.

    Looks so good though, I almost forgot I came to give a mixed review.    … Expand

    Pretty disappointed with the game. Seeing how high it is rated by both the press and players I might have expected a bit too much but there are some issues that just can't be overlooked.

    First, the story is very simple and straight forward, i wouldn't say it was bad but definitely not memorable. On top of that the levels are very linear and there's not much diversity in the environment.    Pretty disappointed with the game.

    But my main problem with the game is that the 2 difficulty levels you get to choose on your first playthrough are too easy. This is my first DmC game and I literally steamrolled through the entire game without seeing the death screen once. You unlock higher difficulty levels by finishing the game or by beating Urizen at the begining but most people don't know that on their first playthrough, I didn't.

    That's a shame because I enjoyed the gameplay and would have had a much better time playing this game if it was actually challenging.
    Aside from a good gameplay, the game has very likeable characters and some good pieces of humor.

    I think the reason behind DmC 5's success is that it offers deep gameplay mechanics while staying very casual friendly.    … Expand

    The soundtrack departs a bit from the metal we're used to from 1-3, and adds a bit more of a pop-ish tone, which caught me off guard but does ultimately work and ends up making it very catchy.

    5 improves GREATLY upon 4 by restoring Dante and the Sparda family story to the forefront of the main plot, and ironed out a lot of my major gripes about Nero as a character, namely his somewhat whiney and borderline angsty personality. He seems to get a lot more close to how Dante was in DMC3, though not quite as flippant, which is fine, he is his own character.

    Like with every DMC proper title this game is easy to learn but difficult to master. The first two difficulties are fine for beginners and/or casual play, then the more experienced/skilled can enjoy more challenge with the later difficulties, which really do start living up to their names (Dante must Die/Hell and Hell).

    The multiplayer element, which is totally new to the series with this title, is thankfully not in your face. There's fairly minimal interaction with other players, you may see them from across the level, or in one particular mission very briefly fight alongside them, or you can turn this feature off entirely if you just want a pure solo experience. Though you will miss out on some chances for gold orbs if you do that, which can be useful.

    My only complaint is a personal one and really has no impact on the value of the game, so I won't reflect it in my score. My one complaint is that one particular character does not get enough screen/story time for my liking. The way he was used was executed well and is properly paced for the story, but I just didn't get enough of him. Hopefully more will be added as the game ages, maybe DLC including this character if 5 follows any of previous game trends. *fingers crossed*    … Expand

After finishing the game, I started son of Sparda (hard) and it was only slightly more difficult. Some dancing enemies are replaced with enemies that actually attack you, everybody has more HP and they do more damage, but it wasn't very challenging.

    The game seems rushed, it has 20 missions, you get 1 weapon for Dante on mission 18 and 19 which seems waaay too late, since mission 20 is just a boss fight. On mission 18 you fight a monster you've already fought in DMC 3 or 4, and you get the same weapon.

    Gameplay for Dante is very fun, Nero is so so due to his lack of primary weapons (1 gun + 1 sword + many special abilities) and V is just very uninspiring button mashing until the enemy dies.

    Overall, a bit too short, very repetitive, bosses without much personality and fun to play, but not incredible. Currently it's rated 9.0 which seems too high.    … Expand

    Awesome music, beautiful graphics, a lot of funny moments, interesting story line, great optimization, addictive gameplay(especially as Dante), each character has his own style, etc. But these levels inside the tree are very boring, as all you can see is a lot of red/black color, no fascinating views, but there are a lot in the city.

    De fato é um jogo ótimo com gráficos incríveis , uma das melhores mecânicas da série , e como uma sound track impressionante , dei 9.0 por causa dos problemas de câmera em cenários muito pequenos, alem disso mais nenhum problema, esse jogo foi feito com muito carinho , e eu espero uma continuação

    It's just a great sequel to an action game franchise that improves and expands on the formula. Nothing is ground breaking or out of this world but Its quality combat and core fighting mechanics make this a great iteration of Devil May Cry. The story is kinda campy, over the top and totally capcom,but it's still a great time.

Nothing is ground breaking or out of this world but Its quality combat and core fighting mechanics make this a great iteration of Devil May Cry. The story is kinda campy, over the top and totally capcom,but it's still a great time. Voice acting is pretty good, and the performance is great, running on 120+ fps on older hardware. However, the camera needs more work. Devil may cry 4 had multiple camera modes and i'd like to see a return of those. No 21:9 or arbitrary resolution support. Some more graphical options would be really appreciated too. The coop sections are really cool but only 2 missions really use that feature and it's impossible to train coop combos reliably. More levels would be my priority after Bloody Palace and more playable characters.

    There's no cancerous walking segment or tons of cutscenes to screw your pace over BUT i would like some missions to have faster checkpoints and reload times. Mission 19 and 20 shouldn't have a checkpoint option. And it shouldn't have the cutscene replay if you select restart mission. Other stuff also appreciated would be native PS4 Controller support on PC, like Yakuza has so far. I would also like the void to be a bit more refined. i would recommend the team to look at trainers available for previous games to see what players really want to use.

    One huge bug that has cropped up is that force quits or game crashes corrupts and deletes your saves, including all your golden orbs from logins and stylish appraisals. This is a huge bug that made me replay the campaign 2 more times. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.

    Bloody Palace will be out April 1st so let's see if that's any good.    … Expand

    Hands down one of the best games out there. With smaller budget than most AAA games, but the graphics, storyline, environmental details and character to NPC interaction/combat is on point. Having a company such as capcom completely putting big companies such as ubisoft and Ea to shame. It's definitely a must try. 10/10 would suggest

    Pretty good action game, one of the best in the genre. Each of the 3 characters has a distinctive play style and plenty of options to execute cool combos; Graphics are nice, and soundtrack is a banger. There are no real glaring flaws here - big recommendation.

It lacks many important things like environment design, boss and enemy design (Capcom really needs to learn how to design demonic creature without a lot of big eyes and tubes emerge from shoulders and body), innovative story, gameplay (except running narrow environments which lead to square like areas to fight hordes of demons and bashing buttons). The worst problem about this game is that except for graphic and animations this game is not a 2019 AAA game as it should be. In this generation all great games tend to utilize an open world or at least a semi-open world area (which I don’t approve); but this game is so damn barred that you can’t go two steps in the wrong way. Altogether it feels like a big pile of junk food which all are delicious but you can’t get anything good at the end.    … Expand

    I feel like there is a good game in here somewhere but the game does a very bad job at introducing itself to new players. With three characters that all control very differently mixed between chapters it feels like so many mechanics are thrown at you too quickly and it becomes overwhelming resulting in a whole lot of button mashing.

    Graphics are excellent, probably the best Capcom has ever produced, the game runs smoothly and in general is well put together. I had no problem maintaining a locked 60fps on ultra settings.

    In terms of pacing there is good and bad. It is a relief for me not to have to collect a load of pointless collectables like in so many games these days, DMC5 at least gets to the point of the game in that respect however is it really necessary to have so many cutscenes. It seems like every new area or enemy encounter has to have it's own cinematic introduction. At least there is no quick time events though.

    New moves are unlocked with red orbs which can be farmed in-game or bought with real money which is a disgrace as the game does not really start until you have unlocked all moves so this does affect the games balancing. Capcom is very greedy and also want you to spend more money on soundtrack items which cannot be unlocked any other way but will show up in game menus (like in Street Fighter V).

    In summary only buy this game when it's on sale if your willing to put the time in to mastering the controls and overcoming DMC 5's steep difficulty curve.    … Expand

If you want a super good rich story telling games, please go for other games such like Persona 5. If you really like a great combat game, please go for God of War. I don't think this game is a masterpiece. A masterpiece games will let player feel the story is unexpectedly interesting and feel tension during combat but not just simply make a game just hit, fly and jump. Then make a story to tell someone this guy is your father then end of story, it is too short, you know? Probably the PC players never experience what is a real masterpiece game. That's why a PS4 console is a must for every PC gamers. Please wait until April 2019 and play this game -- Days Gone.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Amazing game. Gorgeous graphics, exciting OST, fluid combat mechanics and kind of unlimited(?) combo potentials. Have always been a fan of the DMC series. Although I am not very skillful, I always enjoy spending time hack and slash my way to infinite devil trigger mode, and for all achievements in later games in the series. The reason I marked it down by 1 is because I am a little bit unsatisfied with the weapons/combat, characters and story. Despite all the complains in the below, I am still gonna go for DMC6 in the future lolololol.

    Weapons/Combat(Nero):
    Interesting twist with the devil breakers. Is it just me or is the game constantly giving out mega busters? I had like 8 of them in stock after one play through while the others have like 2-3. I broke devil breakers from time to time for more stylish points but it seems to me that capcom is dishing out a lot of mega busters for me .... Anyway, the skill set of Nero did not change much and I still suck at Max act/Exceed. Just Nero being Nero.

    Weapons/combat(Dante):
    I have always loved seeing Dante showing off/trying out his newly obtained weapon. In DMC5, 2 new melee weapons? Come on. Nunchuck is not even that new coz it appeared in DMC3. I like the Bruce Lee sound Dante is making tho. The motorbike is a slow (grinding?) weapon. Slow weapon is just not my type. It's a hack and slash game. What do you expect? If it is a slow weapon, I would like it to be impactful like the gauntlets. Not the mention the Rebellion/Sparda evolved into Devil Sword Dante fked up the Sowrdmaster move set. Of course it is stronger this way, I can land extra hits with O/B while doing my normal combos. But the home run move is gone which made me sad. Luckily I can change back to Rebellion after endgame.
    For ranged weapons, only the usual guns without weird **** like Pandora's box? That just made me reluctant to upgrade Gunslinger. Maybe because Pandora's box was too OP? But I do think Dr. Faust
    is a nice idea for players to farm red orbs more easily.
    And I think Royalguard is the most OP style now, just because of the royal revenge. Vergil dodges your SM combo but got wrecked by RG.

    Weapons/combat(V):
    For me, this is the most boring character. Interesting idea of adding different play style. Need to hold the controller in a weird way for micromanaging Shadow and Griffin, lock on and read a book from afar. Not the most comforting gaming experience for my right hand. Going in for last hits occasionally. Can easily get high stylish points compare with other 2 characters coz low risk of being hit. The battles are so far away that I can't really feel it. Playing as V is like a subject that you are doing well naturally but you have no interest in it.

    Characters:
    DMC series has been trying to make characters looks badass. Mostly by main characters taunting bosses before boss fights, inhuman/stylish combats moves against enemies during cut scenes, etc. But I think DMC5 has gone a bit too much for over emphasizing "coolness" in places where characters could be acting normally. The whole poetry reading from V is getting on my nerves. I don't know whether there is a deeper meaning to this but I certainly think he is more like "acting cool" than "being cool".
    On the other hand, the characters grew old in a way that is not very pleasing. I mean you can see them growing from teens/young adults in DMC3 to mature adults in DMC4, especially Dante, Vergil and Lady. In DMC5, Dante went from playful adult to a drunk street beggar look. Vergil was a handsome man (no homo) and now he is like a grumpy, gloomy bastard. I guess Lady is kinda alright. Trish was hot from DMC1-4 but she is looking like an aunt right now.... And where the fk is Kyrie? Not in a single fking cut scene? Only voice during phone calls? What the fk is wrong with you game designers? Budget cut of sth? And why is Nico suddenly popping up out of nowhere?

    Story:
    Didn't explain how Vergil got back from hell. How the hell did Vergil had a son Nero? Like Dante said, it's kinda expected when Nero and Yamato reacted in DMC4. But no explanations of what was going on in hell with Vergil? Did he fked a succubus or sth so Nero is like 75% demon and stronger than him? Nero just awaken his potential right before final boss fight with will power? Not getting beaten up and end up in a bad situation with sword pierces through chest? So the "apple" just fixed Vergil? He was like crippling and falling apart, he separated himself, causing big ass troubles, ate an apple, recombine, then he is good to go. What happens to the supreme power from apple that made Mundus the king of hell? All in all, Vergil just life stealing from normal humans for healing? And Dante decided to forgive him at the end because Vergil is not taking over the world? Not that I really mind the somewhat typical/lame story lines and endings from all DMC games. I am just here for some hack and slash. But there are just a lot of things unexplained.    … Expand

Excellent sound and music, For adult gamers the story is cheesy and many ridiculous things happen but it was never meant to be a serious game and it's made mostly for teenagers after all. Overall this is a very good game and very polished and you don't need a powerful PC to enjoy it,

    Devil May Cry 5, while seemingly shallow on the surface, conceals its greatest features and true experience for only the dedicated to discover. The satisfaction of finally overcoming a block in the game that held you back for so long is where the real experience lies, and the game demands that you not be weak of heart to reach it. Put in the time and effort that the developers expect of their fans and you’ll truly be able to reap the rewards and see DMC5 for what it is; a truly off the wall, batshit insane romp through the best the genre has to offer.

    The culmination of the franchise and so much more. Capcom is still putting up the pressure one notch above, with new mechanics, a renewed gameplay, and a replayability that will make you start the game a second time without losing your smile. The story has matured and a good balance has been found with its three destinies that intersect over the course of the missions, until its apocalyptic final. Only big downside in a game that requires precision in its highest difficulty levels: the camera problems and the targeting system.

    Bland location design aside, Devil May Cry 5 is excellent in all other aspects. Deep combat system, charismatic characters, nice graphics, vibrant soundtrack — this is one hell of a crazy-ass meaty slasher.
