    All i can say is that CAPCOM is destroying its rivals doing what they should be doing. RE2 remake was amazing. Now this masterpiece called DMC5. And just one freaking month separates both games. Both made by the same company.

    Great Game! Great animation/sound/music/grahpics. Great DANTE! Only pity that game is easier then DMC 4, but it's doesn't matter if you're true fan like me. Will hope DMC6 will be sooner then 10 years :D

    The game looks gorgeous, the gameplay is really fun, varied and has a nice pacing, the story is straight forward (which is not a bad thing) and the characters are super charismatic and entertaining. The only thing I dislike are the environments, they don't detract from the game but they could have made it perfect.

    that's what the fans wanted in 2013, not the stupid restart of the series. A great combat system, not a chopped version like in DmC, and a great soundtrack, not like in a stupid restart. pull my devil trigger bite into memory for a long time.

    Honestly, I am not that into games where you have to fight your way trough hordes of enemies but DMC 5 somehow made me adore it anyway - especially since V´s fighting style where he uses summonned demons fit my favorite play-style perfectly.

    The story is amazing and the relationship between Dante, Nero and the mysterious V (with a secret revealed later in the game) is both deep and engaging. The family feels is really what made the game stand out to me, along with the amazing music and cut scenes - some of them, like the intro with Nero, are so iconic that they have easily become some of my favorites. I can not recommend this game enough!!    … Expand

    Devil May Cry is back in its full glory. It's not only one of the best character action games I've ever played in terms of combat, pacing and soundtrack, but it's also a love-letter to the series as a whole, full of heart and easter eggs. If you even remotely enjoy DMC or games in this genre, this one is a must have!

    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 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.    … Expand

    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.

    The game looks beautiful, but sadly they go into a giant tree in the later half of the game and the colors gets a bit borrowing and especially Dante's jackets. It is not a lot red. It's more like a really dark red which is just sad.    … Expand

Capcom's REngine has done a beautiful job bringing the characters and the setting into the current gen, and I think looks even better than many if not most other AAA titles at this time.
    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

    Devil May Cry has always been a franchise plagued by mismanagement with as many ups such as DMC3 and DMC1 and downs like DMC4 and DMC2, the root of the problem being Capcoms troubling management issues such as Hideaki Itsuno having to help salvage DMC2 four months before release, DMC4 terrible asset flips to overshadow yet another deadline issues all while having no concrete idea of the future plans for the franchise that after DMC1 could have reached for the skies and yet came to a failed reboot in 2013.

    None of the issues above plagues DMC5 which makes it the first Devil may cry game in decades to have a clear concise, emotional story with hilarious scenes, over the top action, emotional cutscenes all while still keeping the flamboyish corky style that made the series popular and iconic, all of this coupled with an incredible throwback gameplay that builds upon DMC4 and DMC3 while still inovating and adding tons of gameplay dynamics makes DMC5 the Ultimate Devil May Cry experience and yet another Capcom sucess in recent years    … Expand

There's even a "The Void" practice zone whenever you learn a new move (you can even try out all the moves before you decide on the upgrade for your character, so it is accessible between missions and when you get upgrades). Said another way, you won't be prone to forget a huge list of combos. It is as incremental as you want it to be. If your're new to the series, you get new moves as you progress in the game. Inside the gameplay, even beginners will soon see how to mix moves together. This makes the game an absolute joy to play.

    Speaking of which, the combat system is great. There are different settings for beginners to advanced players. Some settings even let the game do combos for you if you physically can't do the combinations of button presses. I do find turning around or changing direction a bit jerky, but I guess they wanted the controls to be very responsive rather than have smooth transitions during quick change of directions. This only happens when you completely change direction, so no big deal.

    There are a lot of cutscenes. So if you're not a fan of that, it may be annoying. But that's always been a staple of DMC games. The bosses are interesting. They're not just boss #1, #2, etc. Well, at least the ones I've seen so far. The characters are of course very dismissive of any opponent they defeat because that's their shtick.

    As others have said, story is simple and yet keeps you intrigued. I do like the various characters and personalities. This part is extremely well done. Overall, it's fairly linear. There are secret areas and secret mission that you should try to find throughout though.

    The games runs very smoothly on 1440p with everything maxed out. Then again, I have 1800X + 1080Ti. The game does not fill ultra widescreen (3440x1440). You just get black bars on the side. Note that it does widescreen just fine. Having said that, I'm reading there is an unofficial ultrawide fix available that I'm gonna try right now.

    Can't recommend this game enough!    … Expand

    Back in 2002 when i finally got my PS2 (took a while to save up money as a 13/14 year old) Devil May Cry was first game i got for it, been psyched about it for a year and was one of the main motivators for me to get a PS2 in the first place.
    As i suspected when i finally played it DMC was everything i hoped for, and it instantly skyrocketed to the top of my favorite games list.

    As i suspected when i finally played it DMC was everything i hoped for, and it instantly skyrocketed to the top of my favorite games list.
    Bar DMC2 which was a "slight" disappointment, DMC games always held a special place in my mind.
    DMC reboot wasn't a bad game, on the contrary it was pretty good, alas it was not what fans wanted and what we waited for.
    I'm glad to say DMC5 is a return to form for Capcom and for DMC franchise, all the main characters are back with a vengeance, and i can honestly say that the game is everything i've been hoping for from a new main line DMC sequel.

    Graphics 10/10

    Not much to say here, RE engine looks incredible, game seems well optimized, and it ran great on my system (Ryzen 2600X, 16GB RAM, GTX 1080, at 3440x1440), only small gripe i had was that game doesn't support ultra-wide (atm) so i had 2 grey bars on the sides of the monitor.

    Audio: 9/10

    OST is as expected great, game's main anthem Devil Trigger, which is also Nero's battle music is a departure from usual heavy metal songs. But it fits Nero much better imho.
    Rest of the soundtrack especially Dante's battle theme are more in line with older OSTs.
    DMC3 OST still stands as best in the series for me, 5 isn't far tho.
    Played with English dub, and voice actors did great work, not much else to say, there are some scenes where lip sync doesn't sync very well, but luckily it doesn't detract much from game, and it's doesn't happen very often.

    Gameplay 10/10

    Nailed it, and nailed it so much.
    Everything just "feels" right, way Nero and Dante control is just like i remember from old games, and any veterans returning should feel right at home in DMC5.
    V is a fresh take on combat in DMC where he doesn't fight directly, Instead you control his "pets".
    It's weird at the start but you get used to it, altho i quickly found a way to cheat my way to SSS with him and it's rather easy to pull off.

    Story 9/10

    I'm rating it within "DMC sphere" of storytelling, anyone who played older DMCs knows that DMC story can be weird to say the least, like a fun B movie.
    And that's fine, DMC never took itself very seriously and DMC5 is no exception.
    If you are new just relax don't engage your brain too much and enjoy the ride.

    Overall I loved every second of new DMC, I'm gonna play higher difficulties now, and hunt some achievements.
    And here's hoping Capcom makes a proper DMC6 in a couple years and we don't have to wait 10+ years for a new mainline DMC again.    … 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

    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.
