    A must buy game for any Action game fans, especially a DMC fan.
    This is the climax of the entire series.

    One of the best looking games ever.
    Loved the story.
    Gameplay is insanely fun.
    Best DMC by far.
    This was my game of the year. I'm shocked it did not get game of the year.
    Highly recommend

    To be honest, i played every DMC game so far (including both campaigns of terrible DMC2) and i am kind of disappointed with DMC 5. I had way more fun with Ninja Theory's reboot. Story is funnier in 5 but combat just feel... off. I completed DMC5 but i don't think i never come back to it again.

    The best DMC since "Dante's Awakening". It looks fantastic thanks to the RE Engine which also powered Resident Evil 7. Stylish action, crazy humor and a good story all help to make this an instant classic. There's a bit too much loading screens, but that's my only real complaint. If you didn't like the DmC reboot from 2013, then you'll probably love this over-the-top entry. I would rate itThe best DMC since "Dante's Awakening".

    i love this franchise to death and that may make my opinion on this game a bit biased, i think that this game is a top tier hack and slash with beautiful graphics, goofy dmc humor, and amazing gameplay. The gameplay lacks a bit of snap that dmc 3 has and it only feels satisfying when you're playing as Vergil which on the other hand makes the game too easy, the bosses on their own aren'ti love this franchise to death and that may make my opinion on this game a bit biased, i think that this game is a top tier hack and slash with beautiful graphics, goofy dmc humor, and amazing gameplay.

    I kinda feel weird about this game. On the one hand I really like the aesthetic of it and the vibe it is going for. On the other hand, it kinda felt like a "look, dont touch" type of world with a combat system that didnt really do anything for me. I get that it is a hack and slash game and that combat arena after combat arena is the main point, but I kinda expected more. I think it isI kinda feel weird about this game.

I guess I will skip Bayonetta then and maybe try out Nier Automata as that has more of a story?… Expand

    Actually I always love DMC3SE most... But when DMC5 came out, it was like there's a fire burst in my world! Even the story of DMC5 is really awful, but the charming characters and god like action system really rocks!!!!!!

    Pure videogame bliss.
    This game looks absolutely phenomenal, the visuals are stunning, the environments are beautiful and the music is absolutely banging, easily one of the best and most important parts of the game.
    Arguably the best Hack 'n' Slash combat in any videogame so far, Dante is easily the best character to play as, his mechanics are insane and he has so many weapons, it's    Pure videogame bliss.

    Arguably the best Hack 'n' Slash combat in any videogame so far, Dante is easily the best character to play as, his mechanics are insane and he has so many weapons, it's wild. Nero is very enjoyable aswell, at first he feels kind off generic, because his kit is all-around quite balanced, but once you unlock more abilities his combos are incredibly fun to do. As for V, he is... interesting, his gameplay mechanics are quite different but not really in a good way, he slows down the pacing by a lot and sometimes his levels feel like a slog to go through.

    I didn't really mind the story, the writing is a little bit weak but there are some nice plot twists and epic moments in it.

    The cast is pretty good, every character is entertaining and cool, but what bothered me is the very cheesy and cringey dialogue, the over-the-top "badass" one liners and the unnecessary jokes.

    I think the biggest issue of the game is the outdated level design, every level is linear and boring to look at, dark colors everywhere, pathetic puzzles and no variety at all.

    It's worth to mention that, at first, I wasn't a big fan of the gameplay and the characters, but once I reached Chapter 10, the game got progressively better and better, with Dante carrying the entire game, I really came to appreciate it by the end, it's just a very fun and solid game that I recommend to everyone.

    Final Rating: "Fantastic" ~ 8.5/10.    … Expand

    Gameplay is sleep inducing & the characters suck. It's simply no fun for me... better play Bloodborne or NieR: Automata than this "Trash" here!

    DMC 5 was so chaotic with enemies everywhere and very difficult bosses toward the middle/end, overall it's an amazing game and continues the epic feud between Dante and Virgil! Who will win in the end?!

    Good gameplay, interesting (but confuse) story, nice graphics. Probrably it is on my "top 50 games for ps4" list.

    Delivering an interesting story diving deeper into the grounded psyche of characters without forgoing its cartoonishly flamboyant elements, it also concocts one of the best combat systems ever through multiple playable characters each with their own mechanical quirks with varying degrees of cumulative technical complexity making up a rich, rewardingly deep, wildly expressive combat.Delivering an interesting story diving deeper into the grounded psyche of characters without forgoing its cartoonishly flamboyant elements, it also concocts one of the best combat systems ever through multiple playable characters each with their own mechanical quirks with varying degrees of cumulative technical complexity making up a rich, rewardingly deep, wildly expressive combat.

    a blast of fun, for sure. somehow they managed to add another new protagonist that is unbeliavably charismatic
    the 3 playable character system kind of don't give you so much time to get deep into the characters, but they all play pretty smoothly and this is easily overlooked by the great story, enemies desing and visuals

    Le hicieron mucho ruido a este juego y está puntuado muy alto para lo que realmente aporta. La verdad esperaba encontrar un juego más entretenido pero no fue así.

    No entendí por que al empezarlo sentía que no era capaz de hacer ningún combo y acabó siendo el Devil May Cry con mejor jugabilidad de toda la saga. Queremos el 6, ya!

    Another success for Capcom. Devil May Cry has received a fresh injection of demon blood, and is as SSStylish as ever. A treat to look at, and a treat to play. [Issue#161, p.86]

    When one rival put on weight, grew a bushy beard and decided to raise his son in the Northern bewilderness, the other chose a pair of stylish high-heels a couple sizes too small and the third now only appears to smash some oversized ta-tas, Devil May Cry 5 is proving that it is too early to put hack'n slash games out of commission. It's a gorgeous, glorious game of great current interest. A crown jewel from Capcom's most skilled goldsmiths.

    Although the online functions could have been better, the unique and satisfying combat styles of Nero, Dante and V greatly contribute in evolving Devil May Cry 5 to the next level. While gaining a more photorealistic look thanks to Capcom’s RE engine, the stylish action we have come to love from the series is better than ever.
