    It's incredible. I could nitpick it, but I won't. Please buy this game so we can have more Devil May Cry.

    I waited for this game since 10 years and it became everything I ever wanted to be, proving that linear games with nice gameplay can be just as engaging and giant sandboxes with tons of sidequests. My faith in capcom is now completely restored.

    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.

    Jogo excelente conseguiu amarrar muito bem a história dos jogos anteriores e trouxe de volta em grande estilo o Hack n Slash, sem falar nas partes gráficas e sonoras que estão muito boas, a trilha sonora não deixa nem um pouco a desejar, a jogabilidade é fluida e bem responsiva. Só não me agradou o fato de ser curto o que acaba deixando um gosto de quero mais no jogador.

    Así es como se hace una continuación, el sistema de combos y armas es perfecto y podemos utilizar a tres personajes que se diferencian entre ellos lo suficiente para que el juego no se sienta repetitivo.

Si te gustaron los juegos anteriores vas a amar este, yo lo considero uno de los mejores de la saga. Expand

    DMC 5 is a must-play title for action fans. The action is fast and fluid, and its accommodations for both skilled and new players make it easier for everyone to enjoy the gameplay.

    This old school meets new school dmc is exactly what fans were asking for. A video game not ashamed of its roots and proves old school gameplay with a few new twists is still viable in todays game design. Makes us wonder if gameplay has become worse with the passage of time, i'd like to see more companies be this unapologetic about the game they are making and own what they are good at.This old school meets new school dmc is exactly what fans were asking for.

    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 graphics on the One X are insane, and it runs at 60fps to boot, with all the particle effects and tons of enemies around. It's a show of force by Capcom, who is now back to true

    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.
  3. 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.
