    I paid 600$ to play as 1 character 1 month early in a game I've already put 200 hours into and I regret nothing. The game of the generation.

    The final boss fight alone worth all your money. Just buy DMC 5 special edition. vergil is so satisfying to play and his movesets are just amazing. Do not rush in this game take your time leaning all the movesets, practice properly in the void and you will have a great time. DMC 5 SE is 1010

    This game is the main reason that I got a PS5! What we have here is the absolute pinnacle of the Hack and Slash genre. Vergil feels perfect to play, the game looks amazing and it basically has endless replayability due to its exquisite core combat and abundance of modes.

    Faster and more fluent – is there anything else to wish for, especially that the game itself is still amazing? Actually, the Special Edition has much more going for it, including a new difficulty level, new rendering modes (up to 4K 30 fps with ray tracing), and the ability to play as Vergil. Sadly, the new character doesn’t come with his own levels. I also need to point out fps drops in the 120 Hz mode, and lackluster use of DualSense’s features. [02/2021, p.48]

    While light in the storytelling department, there’s enough here to keep fans happy and more than enough stylish demon slaying to keep this series engaging.

    If you haven’t yet played Devil May Cry 5 and you have a new console at home, don’t waste a second and go buy this brilliant action game. If you’re a veteran, just buy the Vergil DLC and be done with it.
