    The best version of the next gen consoles. Amazing with RT and adding Vergil, real Virgil, al juego.

    A decir verdad se siente corto de contenido a comparación de la pasada edición especial pero tiene cosas que la compensan pero no en gran medida aun así no vale mucho la pena para quienes tienen la versión de anterior generación pero para quienes no lo han probado es una excelente opción

    This is a great repackaged game of an already great game. I love the new ray tracing visuals which looks fantastic and the new 120fps is a welcomed inclusion!

    The final boss fight alone worth all your money DMC 5 special edition is must buy. Vergil gameplay is very fun and satisfying. just take your time learning and do not rush practice of your skills and it will be rewarding vergil's movesets are simply amazing and once you master them you will be in heaven.

    Antes de entrar a valorar este gran juego, no entiendo por qué la versión de XBOX Series X|S tiene menor nota, tanto por críticos especializados como por los usuarios, respecto a la versión de PlayStation 5, cuando son exactamente el mismo juego.

En fin... vayamos a mi valoración en la versión de XBOX Series S.

    Si algo ha hecho bien Capcom es crear el RE Engine: sus juegos se ven de una forma prácticamente hiperrealista. Y prueba de ello lo tenemos en este genial Devil May Cry 5: Nero, Dante, V y el resto de personajes lucen genial, los escenarios son toda una pasada... Una potencia gráfica que además mantiene los 60 fps para una jugabilidad frenética, si bien es cierto que, al cambiar varias mecánicas respecto a anteriores entregas, es necesario practicar un poco los movimientos al principio. Lo he completado en la dificultad Cazademonios (lo que viene siendo Normal en esta saga) y no es que sea difícil, pero hay momentos en los que los jefes se pueden hacer cuesta arriba y sea necesario gastar gemas doradas (por suerte, hay un gran surtido de ellas durante la partida). Y la banda sonora es alucinante.

    Ahora bien, si hablamos de la Special Edition, exclusiva de nueva generación, ésta luce mejor que nunca y aporta más contenido: jugar como Vergil, Palacio Sangriento, ray-tracing (sólo en PS5 y Series X), 120 fps... ¡Un gran upgrade!    … Expand

    Pode não ser comparável aos antigos, mas ainda tem uma jogabilidade viciante e visualmente é muito bonito.

    Great game and great slasher with cool story and music. Combos are one of the best things in this game. Just happy that i played that game.

    Immortal temptation
    Takes over my mind, condemned
    Falling weak on my knees Summon the strength of mayhem I am the storm that is approaching Provoking black clouds in isolation I am reclaimer of my name Born in flames, I have been blessed My family crest is a demon of death Forsakened, I am awakened A phoenix's ash in dark divine Descending misery Destiny chasing time Inherit    Immortal temptation
    Takes over my mind, condemned
    Falling weak on my knees
    Summon the strength of mayhem
    I am the storm that is approaching
    Provoking black clouds in isolation
    I am reclaimer of my name
    Born in flames, I have been blessed
    My family crest is a demon of death
    Forsakened, I am awakened
    A phoenix's ash in dark divine
    Descending misery
    Destiny chasing time
    Inherit the nightmare, surrounded by fate
    Can't run away
    Keep walking the line, between the light
    Led astray
    Through vacant halls I won't surrender
    The truth revealed in eyes of ember
    We fight through fire and ice forever
    Two souls once lost, and now they remember
    I am the storm that is approaching
    Provoking black clouds in isolation
    I am reclaimer of my name
    Born in flames, I have been blessed
    My family crest is a demon of death
    Forsakened, I am awakened
    A phoenix's ash in dark divine
    Descending misery
    Destiny chasing time
    Disappear into the night
    Lost shadows left behind
    Obsession's pulling me
    Fading, I've come to take what's mine
    Lurking in the shadows under veil of night
    Constellations of blood pirouette
    Dancing through the graves of those who stand at my feet
    Dreams of the black throne I keep on repeat
    A derelict of dark, summoned from the ashes
    The puppet master congregates all the masses
    Pulling strings, twisting minds as blades hit
    You want this power? Then come try and take it
    Beyond the tree, fire burns
    Secret love, bloodline yearns
    Dark minds embrace, crimson joy
    Does your dim heart heal or destroy?
    Bury the light deep within
    Cast aside, there's no coming home
    We're burning chaos in the wind
    Drifting in the ocean all alone    … Expand

    While these upgrades are certainly worth picking up the game for those that never played it, some players won’t find enough here to justify another full purchase. Still, even with those caveats Devil May Cry V Special Edition is a rocking pack that really showcases the new hardware, while still remaining one of the best action games ever created.

    The definitive edition to enjoy in all the its splendor and without any kind of compromise of one of the most sensational and adrenaline-pumping hack 'n' slash of recent years.

    If you haven’t had a chance to play the original, this is the perfect time, but if you have previously played and liked it, and can’t see yourself going back, this won’t change your mind. Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition on Xbox is, quite frankly, the best way to play the game - but it won’t convince you to part ways with your funds if you were lukewarm on the original.
