GamesRadar - Listen up: Whether you love it or hate it, the first new Devil May Cry game in five years is almost here. Capcom has entrusted Ninja Theory to reboot one of the most revered hack-‘n’-slash franchises ever made, and its radical take on Dante’s world promises a stellar mix of old gameplay with a new aesthetic. If you’re as stoked as we are to take the new Dante for a spin, you won’t be disappointed; we can say with certainty that this is one of the most intense action games you’ll play all year.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."
3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best
Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...
5, 3, 1, 4, 2.
I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.
But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me
Huzaifah from eXputer: "Devil May Cry 5, the latest iteration in the iconic DMC franchise by Capcom, still holds its own as a fantastic hack-and-slash in 2024."
NVIDIA continues to add games to GeForce NOW. This week, Devil May Cry 5, Gears Tactics, and The Crew Motorfest lead the charge.
Just a fair warning, if you do not plan on buying the game or have no interest in it, don't read the article. It has some satire/passive-aggressive parts to make you feel like you are unintelligent or bad person. Example below.
"If you’re not excited, well, don’t buy the game, and don’t forget to swing by the market and pick up another jug of Haterade on the way home from work."

Review score prediction: 10/10
The stories in the old DMC games sucked!!! compared to this game
To repeat how they aren't getting it... 1.. 2.. 4... The same 4 that's been consistently trolling it since 2010! You'd think they'd be tired and just give up. I totally understand that they have their opinion but with 3 days till release you'd think the point would have stuck, those who are interested will play it irregardless of the , however much merit or lack there of, it may have for those haters to hate.
I guess bashing DmC is a serious priority in their lives.
