"When a game is announced and the developers mention that the franchise has been rebooted and has taken on a new look and feel, critics tend to rain down on them with negativity and a lot of the time the reboots definitely do the original franchises justice. DMC Devil May Cry from Capcom and Ninja Theory is one such franchise recreating the demon hunter Dante giving him a new look and feel, a tougher attitude, a fouler mouth and a new playground whilst maintaining the soul and aura of the classic PlayStation 2 games that started it all."
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.
Still not buying this.
I love the reactions to the people that claimed this game would fail.
Critically and reviews wise, I had a feeling this game would do good. Seeing as all the previews from different gaming outlets pointed towards the positive. But as far as it doing well financially however, it still remains to be seen.
And then calling someone ignorant! it must burn them up inside to know the game is ACTUALLY performing well critically. LOL it'll likely sell well enough to warrant another sequel. already purchased it just waiting to pick it up tomorrow!
