Nero's here, Dante's back in pitch-perfect form, and V provides a brand-new style of play. USgamer's Mike Williams: "Capcom fills fans' dark souls with light! Devil May Cry 5 is an excellent return to form for the franchise, setting it up for a bright future. He "had the idea of taking what you need to protect and what you need to attack with and separating those two elements." Thus, the unique concept of V was born, where he acts separately from his offensive familiars, who attack enemies while he weaves through the battlefield. When creating V, Itsuno mentioned that he wanted a character that would play totally differently from the two established ones. When an enemy's health reaches a certain threshold, V can swoop in and execute them, but otherwise, he can't directly attack on his own. When V reaches Devil Trigger Level 3, he summons Nightmare, a hulking golem-like beast that works alongside the other two summons. Meanwhile, Griffin the bird launches ranged attacks and helps V maneuver around the battlefield. Shadow takes the form of a panther, using its agility to pounce on foes. From afar, he controls two creatures at all times. V, on the other hand, boasts a completely different combat style. Read on to find out what you should expect before Devil May Cry 5 drops on March 8.ĭante and Nero are mostly close-quarters combatants, both being accomplished swordsmen. Once you get a good grasp of the game, you'll understand why millions of fans around the world fell in love with a game that oozes style.
Regardless of your player character, however, you can expect to fall into a rich yet complex game that constantly challenges you to be better and cooler. For example, nearly half of DMC4 put players in the shoes of Nero, another hunter. Dante, a demon hunter who is half-demon himself, stars prominently in the franchise, but he's no stranger to sharing the spotlight. The series started as a prototype of Resident Evil 4, but it spun off into its own set of games. Although the franchise has had some missteps, DMC1 and 3 still stand as acclaimed PlayStation 2 classics, featuring a deep combat system and a high skill ceiling. These hack-and-slash adventures put style above everything, but don't mistake that for lack of substance. To the joy of action game fans everywhere, Capcom plans to release Devil May Cry 5 this year on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Windows. Some fans would argue that Ninja Theory's DmC: Devil May Cry doesn't count since it's a Western-developed reboot, in which case it's been more than a decade. Years have passed since the world was graced by the wonderful ridiculousness of a Devil May Cry game.
