Devil May Cry is franchise that has paved the road for top tier Hack N' Slash game play. With upcoming release of the series reboot, retailing, prequel or whatever it is many longtime fans have become concerned and even let down by the face lift that Ninja Theory has done but I'm here to say don't worry it's all good. If you take the title for all it has to offer and try to look past the series roots you will see that Ninja Theory with strict supervision from Capcom has created an entry that could in all likelihood surpass all the past titles.

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.
This game is going to be sick!
the only thing hurting this game is the 30fps and that they are using angel and demon trigger instead of the style system.
It can pretend all it wants to be the same and as deep , it is not and wont play as well .
I don't want to play an action game with mindless aerials for 5 minutes with no difficulty curve and unbelievably silly gravity , especially while baffoons try telling you "see it's the same gameplay ! It's as deep and combo heavy !" . Nuh Uh .
But enjoy the video guys , i'll just go back to a seemingly better looking and feeling Darksiders 2 gameplay while waiting for MG rising .
