Nerdluster: I’m not well known for my appreciation or fandom when it comes to the Devil May Cry series. Friends know my favorite genres are limited to roleplaying or strategy games where fighting or combo driven mechanics are not core to succeeding. Even with DmC’s focus on combat style and proper timing I started to appreciate the finesse of controlling Dante as he battled groups of skeletonized demons or bulky brutes. Furthermore boss battles were where I found myself really enjoying the fighting of the game, swinging Arbiter at flashing targets or launching Dante from platform to platform really hit a sweet spot for me that is often missing in “shooter” or fantasy RPG games.
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.
