"DmC: Devil May Cry will challenge purists of the series with its all-new take on Dante’s story, but is the reboot a heavenly experience that successfully relaunches the franchise while retaining the series’ trademark action experience?"
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.
"The overly elaborate costumes and cheesy jokes have taken a backseat – so those who enjoyed all the goofy banter will need to adjust. Not to say there isn’t banter, it’s just much, much better and, this time around, the script is smarter, edgier and more relatable."
Yeah, because unnecessary cursing is so much better, a patchwork story that's more cliche than life is so much better too right? It's not better, it's worse.
And to say this game is more adult? Are you really serious? This game was made to pander to teenage douchebags, frat boys, and jersey shore lovers. That's not "adult." Ohhh, the inclusion of a sex scene is what you're talking about, I get it. Pff.
**EDIT** This game is only good to people who don't care about challenge, depth, and likeable characters. Given that this gen has seen a smattering of those kinds of games, it's no wonder it's been getting good scores. Still funny that it has the exact same problems as Ninja Gaiden 3 and yet gets the pass.
