With the brilliance of the new Resident Evil 2 fresh (looking so forward to the new remake of Resident Evil Zero as well. I had very high hopes for Devil May Cry 5 and to say this game reached my expectations and then some would be quite an understatement, My only real complaint is I felt the game was a tad short because I truly enjoyed It so much. From the moment I started the game I knew I was in for an amazing Capcom feast, both the visuals and sound design are wonderful and the accompanying story was a fantastic adventure to say the least. The gameplay is simply some of the best I've experienced from Capcom over the last year. The boss fights are huge and full of challenge and life. In terms of content the game has a decent amount for you to sink your teeth into I just wasn't done when my experience was over. The DMC story mode was a nice addition as well which I think many of the younger players may have missed the epic tale of the DMC series. Can't wait for the next batch from our beloved Capcom in the world of terror and survival.… Expand

    I've never played a game with such an amazing combat system. It's easy to start, but you're always craving making those sweet SSS combos, and the game rewards you for it.
    My only complaint would be that the developers spoiled all the weapons before the release. Still, an amazing game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Devil May Cry 5 is a fun, emotional and thrilling game that can easily transition between campy fun and hard-hitting character moments.

    The gameplay itself is fun, although when I transitioned to V I personally sighed, the 3 characters you play as (Dante, Nero and V) are all interesting and bring their own mechanics to the table, V personally felt annoying and weird to play at times, just because I felt disconnected when fighting as I had to watch Griffon and Shadow hit **** while I stood back. Nero and Dante are especially fun, even if Dante has so many modes and combos and weapons that learning them all can be overwhelming but fun.

    The replayability isn't too bad. I'm not one to replay a story straight after on another difficulty but this was one of the first games I did. Even re-watching some of the cutscenes again, they're just that fun!
    There are about 5 modes, all with a degree of difficult and the bloody palace is sure to keep you around    … Expand

    Dentro del hack and slash es lo mejor que ha salido en años. 3 personajes totalmente distintos uno del otro, lo que le da una variedad increíble. Una historia atrapante; los personajes femeninos, especialmente Nico están muy bien. Buenos gráficos y las payasadas de los personajes masculinos son la guinda de la torta. Un DMC como debe ser de toda la vida.

    Gráficos brutales y una jugabilidad profunda y exigente para obtener las puntuaciones más altas.
    Se hecha en falta algo de exploración y puzles durante el desarrollo de las fases, entiendo que el fuerte y objetivo sea el del combate pero aportaría variedad a la experiencia general.

    Incredible entry to the Devil May Cry series. Tons of replayability and unlockable skills. Very high skill ceiling without being ridiculously punishing for players who just want to go through the story.

    The onslaught of things to shoot, crush or skewer demons with is always exhilarating, and done ample. justice by Capcom’s RE Engine

    At 15 hours long, and with the unlockable Son Of Sparta mode upping the difficulty while switching enemies around, Dante’s latest is both stylish and generously stuffed. Though occasionally intimidating and repetitive in places, you’ll still relish making Satan sing.

    Distilling everything that's made the series great to this point and offering a razor sharp modern take on the combo-heavy character action genre that DMC helped instigate, Devil May Cry 5 is a juvenile-yet-very-adult game for those who like their monsters grotesque, their combat stylish and their demon-hunting boys and girls dumb but outrageously sexy.
