The Devil May Cry series began with Dante, a lone demon hunter. Today, he's not so lonely; other playable characters have rotated in over the years, including Vergil, Nero, Trish, and Lady. Devil May Cry 5 expands the cast again with V, a mysterious man who uses demonic companions to fight.

Buy Devil May Cry 5 For some, the thought of a real sequel to the original Devil May Cry series was something of a myth. The remastering of the original four games seemed like par for the course for Capcom, who remastered a good chunk of its catalog quite often.

It's been a long while since we had a really cracking DMC game, and 5 is the crème-de-la-crème of Devil May Cry. It pulls you in, drags you front and centre and presents action packed demon slaying adventures which are just brutal and fun in equal measure.

Back to demonic roots How right they were. Then there's the Adam Driver-ass V. He might look like a total dullard, but his wisecracking talking bird rules and so does his whole combat vibe.

Combat is phenomenal; Technically perfect; Visuals are stunning; Great throwbacks to the series

Some cutscenes are awkward when women are involved

When it comes to hack and slash games, there are just a few series that rival Devil May Cry. The long-running franchise which made its debut on the

Playong this game for a couple of last weeks and is so awesome, back to the bests in the series!;) Great slasher with even better graphic.

It's been 11 years since we last got a Devil May Cry game actually developed in-house by Capcom, with the 2013 reboot (which I loved by the way) developed by Ninja Theory. So with 11 long years passed, does Devil May Cry 5 hold up compared to previous instalments in the series now that we're in...

an unashamedly old school return for an action legend

If you come to Devil May Cry 5 looking for a fight, then you’ll find possibly the finest example the genre has ever produced. A ludicrous variety of moves and styles, physical, kinetic combat, and more sauce than a Heinz factory. Moment-to-moment, Devil May Cry 5 is a searing, thrilling action game, with stunning visuals and serious depth. Beyond that, the wooden acting, functional but uninspiring story, and basic level design feel like a step back from the stunning dmc. While hardcore fans will be pleased to see the original Dante and co back in the saddle, it would have been great to see Capcom take on board the advancements that Ninja Theory introduced to the series. Overall, though, this is high caliber violence from a publisher who’s on a serious roll right now.

Truly magnificent combat ; Three character system is interesting; Beautiful visuals;

Basic level-design ; V is not as enjoyable as Dante and Nero; Story feels like a step back;
