Since farming out development of its franchises to Western developers, Capcom has had mixed results. For every Dead Rising 2 there’s a Bionic Commando rearing its ugly head. But since there isn’t a series Capcom wouldn’t entrust to a western developer, Ninja Theory has been tasked with reinventing Devil May Cry, now branded DmC: Devil May Cry. Much like the previous example, the quality of the series has been all over the map, culminating in the disappointing Devil May Cry 4, which saw Dante upstaged by a whiny clone named Nero.

Devil May Cry 5 surpasses 10 million sales as Netflix animated series drives major surge in franchise popularity.
It's been six years since Capcom dropped Devil May Cry 5, but it's still more than worth replaying in 2025 thanks to its rich gameplay.
Because the anime is on Netflix and we gotta ride that DMC in the news again wave.
It’s been sitting in my backlog for a while now. One of the first games I wanted to try for this current gen due to the long load times of previous gen. I’ll get around to it soon!
One of the best, stylish, and fun action slasher on the system. You definitely should get to it, as soon as you can.
The DMC5 team went on to make Dragons Dogma 2, the DMC director (3,4,5) left capcom to make an action game at another studio and the rumor is that a DMC remake is next...so i wouldn't hold my breath on DMC6.
Everytime its on sale I think about buying it but never do. I only played the orginal and somr of 3 so I guess that's part of it.
Steam's Summer Sale looks primed for Steam Deck players - with a huge collection of titles on offer for the handheld.
