Synopsis

A reboot of the Devil May Cry series in which a younger Dante, half angel and half demon, fights through Limbo, a twisted mirror of a modern city run by demons. Levels mix fast combo-driven combat, switching between angel and demon weapons on the fly, with grappling and platforming through shifting set pieces.

What people say

Critics at release scored it well and praised the fluid combat, the way the angel and demon weapon sets play off each other, and the striking art of Limbo City. Many longtime fans rejected the reboot's new take on Dante and its changes to the series, which gave the game a poorer reputation than its scores suggest. Recent retrospectives argue the combat holds up, while the story and characters remain the weak point. On PC the main complaints are a camera that needs constant correction and an air dash that feels less responsive than it should.

✓Controls feel natural on a modern controller or mouse and keyboardCombat controls are tight and controller support works out of the box, though a gamepad is the better choice than keyboard and mouse. Source: gamechronicles.com, pcgamingwiki.com.
✓Menus, text and interface are clear on today's screensColor coding for grapple targets and weapon types keeps the busy screen readable, and the game supports widescreen displays. Source: gamechronicles.com.
✓Saving is fair: free saves or frequent checkpoints, little lost progressProgress is split into short missions with a more generous checkpoint system than earlier series entries, and golden orbs revive Dante after a death. Source: en.wikipedia.org, gamechronicles.com.
✓It teaches itself: no guide needed to make progressThe opening mission introduces combat step by step, with on-screen prompts for combo timing and new weapons and moves arriving gradually. Source: gamechronicles.com, en.wikipedia.org.
✓Pacing holds up: little grind, filler or forced backtrackingMissions are linear and varied, and revisiting levels with new abilities is only needed for optional collectibles. Source: gamechronicles.com, inverse.com.
✗Camera and movement never fight the playerThe camera often drifts on its own and needs frequent manual correction, and a sluggish air dash causes missed jumps during platforming. Source: gamechronicles.com.
