Press Play talks to Product Manager Karl Reader about what’s new in DMC, and what series fans can expect to return in this new take on the beloved franchise!
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."
Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.
Still a good game though.
Best to good for me: 3, reboot, 1, 5
2 and 4 are trash, didnt like any of them.
5 has very good gameplay variety but i hated the foes.. it is just insects the whole time. Reboot has the best foes for me
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
2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.
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
This right here is my order as I thought DMC 5 was amazing and obviously 3 comes after 4 was great and 1 for the nastilgic value it holds 2 was so terrible that my local GameStop gave full refunds to people who returned it.
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."
Exclusive new Spider-Man 2 suits will be revealed as part of Marvel LIVE! at New York Comic Con next month.
I will be there, will be my third time going to nycc.
Already reserved the deluxe edition of the game, just waiting for it to be downloadable then unlocked.
I like this game...but....ngl seeing alot news about costumes for promotional work is not exciting.
....... How is it exclusive when the game is only on PS5? That's a rather liberal use of the word and really takes away from what it represents. Exclusive is just a word now, it used to actually mean something. Once timed-exclusive came about, it lost its pop
I think they mean as in never before seen anywhere Spider-Man related and will debut in the game.
Replies(1)Was there a comic-con suit in the last game? I could be wrong, but it was a cel-shaded (at least I think that’s the one) and it was one of my favorite suits to use.
I welcome all these suits! Hope there’s even more! I enjoyed switching out suits throughout the last game.
I hate how they say that they're staying true to the core combat mechanics. How is that true? Because it's a hack and slash? Making DmC like god of war is not staying true to the series.
lolz "core combat" its a hack n slash so yeah that's all the core concept they kept sounds great. yay he is Half Demon Half Angel.... fuk it lets go nuts lets also make Engergy Companies as bad guys, wtf who thought this was a good idea..
"We still got original Dante..."
Dante = half demon half human
Dante = has white hair because of genetic trait in story relating to his father, and outside game reference to Japanese folklore perception that people with white hair was possessed by demons.
Dante = not someone who curses.
Dante = does not smoke (Ninja theory's version did in beginning so the "He doesn't smoke anymore" doesn't work).
Dante = not created by Ninja theory
Dante = was no longer "cool" and would get "laughed out" in a bar in Tokyo according to Tameem.
And as a insult to Dante fans they ruin Devil trigger by making their version of Dante look like real Dante with red jacket and white hair. They say they did that to pay tribute - clearly they did it to ensure better sales. What better way to pay tribute to Dante than not replace him huh?
Right ...you have original Dante in DmC with a different look despite what has been said about Original Dante, and how he is as a character.
Such bullshit is only accepted by brainwashed people.
