    Not much to say. As a great fan of the series this game is just awesome. The characters and the gameplay are Amazing, the story is quite good and the graphic is badass. Might not be as good as dmc3, but still a fantastic game.

    Devil May Cry 5 is both a love letter to its franchise and the entire medium of gaming. It impeccably bookends Dante and Vergil's arcs while also making Nero a more sympathetic, human character. It's story is as wild, over the top, and charming as DMC 3 and contains the same dramatic, character-driven set pieces that made DMC 3's final moments so memorable.

The gameplay is stylish and nuanced with a level of depth I have never seen in an action game. The level of variety in each character is insane. Dante, Nero, V, and Vergil all have drastically different play styles and move sets and all of them work really well. You can spend hours practicing combos with Dante and it'll still feel like you have only scratched the surface with what he can do. The story and game play weave together to create one of the most powerful and exhilarating games to date. Expand

    This isn't just the best DMC game, it's the best action hack and slash game of all time.

    One of rare examples of modern AAA games where gameplay is complex and challenging instead of being filled with superflous mechanics. It's a game where you could sink hundreds of hours to learn its deep and layered combat system. The story is fun and engaging and the visuals are great. A modern

    A true successor to DMC 3 :) great and satisfying combat, great soundtracks, cool story, very cool bosses, beautiful graphics and very good optimization on PC. This is literally DMC 3 on steroids! 10/10 for me :)

    A well rounded hack-and-slash DMC style game (duh) with the perfect combination of fairly easy to play but a challenge to master. Gameplay is dynamic with many options and well though-out. On top of that RE engine looks incredible AND it runs extremely well. Bravo Capcom.

    Some of the cons are common with all hack-and-slash games, somewhat repetitive mobs and sometimes excessive button

    Some of the cons are common with all hack-and-slash games, somewhat repetitive mobs and sometimes excessive button 'mashing'. Also I feel like the music was just ok, there was a lot of room for improvement

    Even with the flaws, it will be a defining game for not only the DMC series but the genre as well.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Yes yes and absolutely yes. I can't believe I waited to pick up this game. DMC5 is such an amazing game with such a great story, beautiful graphics, awesome characters and fun gameplay. I held off so long only because I grew off of hack and slash type games and I came back with a bang and this was it. DMC reboot was a disgrace. This on the other hand? Man you have to pick it up whenever you get the chance. It's easily worth your money.

    Why did I give it a 9 out of 10 though?
    Well it's simple. It needs more Vergil and I don't like V's sandals. Other than that it's something I'll never forget.

    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.

    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.

Uma obra que te faz rir com as zueiras de Nico e Dante, ao mesmo tempo que te deixa intrigado com o personagem misterioso V (que, desde o começo, todos já suspeitam quem seja). Combate muito variado e fluido, com diversas opções de armas e de combos. Único ponto negativo a se destacar é a falta de inovação nos cenários, podiam ter utilizado uma maior paleta de cores. Apesar disso, é impossível dar maior destaque a esse problema já que a experiência é extremamente gratificante, colocando DmC V entre os melhores jogos (se não o melhor) da série DmC.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Capcom, you've outdone yourselves. Ok first off, this is a TRUE sequel and it isn't bad like a certain reboot, looking at you Ninja Theory.

    Well jokes aside, this is one of, if not the, best entry in the Devil May Cry series. The story is excellent, characters just feel right, the combat system is smooth. There really isn't much to complain on this game. The only thing I personally would nitpick on is Vergil's facial structure, he looks a little derpy and the dubstep music. But even so, this is not just a game, it feels like true fan-service from Capcom. The dubstep music is only used for combat with Nero, BUT if you feel like you want an old soundtrack from the older dmc games, then you can do just that.

    Devil May Cry 5 offers a new way to play Nero with a mechanical arm he loses early on in the game and at first i wasn't convinced but during mid-game i was kind of digging it to be honest. All the arms have different abilities and ultimates and varies the gameplay.

    At first I was a bit concerned about how Capcom was going to handle the playable characters in a way that feels natural, but they happily surprised me.

    Verdict & TL-DR:

    Graphics: 10/10
    Gameplay: 9,5/10
    Story: 10/10
    Characters: 9/10
    Music: 9/10

    This is the long awaited and theorized DMC game that all the fans have gotten and it lived up to the hype, Graphics are the best they've ever been in DMC without even having a big impact on performance all thanks to the RE Engine. Gameplay was even better that I thought it would be, the story was fantastic, the characters felt right and although i didn't like the dubstep battle music, there was an option to change that and the soundtracks were epic.

    Replay = yes

    Amazing Graphics, Soundtrack & Story

    Gameplay is just as brilliant I have never played earlier instalments.
    players get to play as three characters: Nero, V and of course Dante. Each of them has their own unique powers i like to play v the most myself.

    it is amazing, i really enjoyed it 9/10.

    Devil May Cry 5 absolutely oozes style in everything it does. And that is saying something in a series that has always been about stylish combat and over the top action sequences.

    One gripe I do have is that the level design is very linear and has little to explore which is in somewhat stark contrast with previous games. However, that does give the game a razor focus on the main sell of

    All the playable characters were super fun and had unique playstyles. V is the only new playable character and his playstyle is very different from anything we have seen in the series. Surprisingly, I had a ton of fun playing him although I initially expected him to be boring due to his no hands-on fighting style.

    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.
