On top of that, the game runs at 4K on Xbox One X, PlayStation 4 Pro and PC, and supports HDR and 60 FPS across all platforms. It truly showcases the visual capabilities of the RE Engine. They grimace, frown and display their emotions in a multitude of different ways. Character models feature detailed pores, freckles and scars, hair flutters in the wind and Dante’s grey bristles should be featured in a shaving commercial. Devil May Cry 3, in particular.īut from a purely technical standpoint, Devil May Cry 5 is an absolute marvel to behold. But as much as existing fans will enjoy it, some important story segments won’t invoke any emotion in players who didn’t experience previous games. Overall, the narrative features some truly memorable moments and answers many crucial questions. And, of course, the usually sarcastic one-liners by Dante spice up conversations. It features some of the best writing and humour in the series, largely thanks to the comical interactions between Nero and his sidekick Nico. Devil May Cry 5 incrementally introduces new characters and their motivations, though some receive way more screen-time than others. In their initial attempt, Dante and Nero fail to stop Urizen and the struggle of overcoming this powerful adversary begins.įrom there, the plot progresses in a shuffled chronological order, jumping between multiple periods of time, yet somehow avoiding confusion. This tree gradually engulfs the city, absorbing the life-force of its citizens and turning them into inanimate husks. Urizen does so via a demonic tree located in the centre of a sprawling metropolitan area known as Red Grave City. He intends to attain absolute power by draining blood from every human and using it to fortify his own growing abilities.
This time around, Dante and his now expanded group of comrades face an entirely new threat: the Demon King Urizen. As to why they share this initial becomes revealed later in the story, and it all makes a surprising amount of sense. And V, sharing the initial with Dante’s older sibling, Vergil, and often reciting a mysterious book, adds intrigue to the overall plotline. With her quick wit and hip attire, Nico easily imbues dialogue with the most amount of tasteful humour. But new faces - namely Nico and V - don’t fall behind in terms of appeal.
Familiar demon exterminators - Dante and Nero - return to the spotlight, with Lady and Trish filling in supporting roles. Perhaps, because events portrayed in it don’t quite fit alongside other entries.ĭevil May Cry 5 brings together an unforgettable cast of characters, more so than ever before. Somewhat surprisingly, it completely ignores the existence of Devil May Cry 2. It showcases events between previous games in the form of static cutscenes and text. From what we've seen in the trailer the Breaker is a blast to use and it should only get better as you progress through the game.Īs for the story, demons are swarming Red Grave City and it's up to Nero and Rico to find their way there, contemplating on the way how he came to lose his former arm, the whole demon thing, how Liverpool FC will never win the PL and where in the world is Dante.For anyone new to the series, Devil May Cry 5 provides a brief movie, titled “History of DMC”, accessible in-game. The Devil Breaker was made by Nicoletta "Nico" Goldstein, the latest addition to Devil May Cry 5's cast and agency's new techie.
Replacing Nero's Devil Bringer is the new robotic arm aptly named the Devil Breaker. That's not the only novelty that will help address the demon situation, which is a democratically correct term for merciless slashing and ploughing through hordes of demonic monsters. As you can see from the trailer, Nero's base of operation is a rundown van that seems to be doing fairly well in terms of, ahem, pest control. Devil May Cry 5's development has been progressing according to plan and the game's appearance on Gamescom was announced a while ago.ĭevil May Cry 5 marks the return of Nero, where the story is set a few years after the events that took place in the game's second instalment. You'd be forgiven for assuming that this is a kneejerk reaction caused by the company's hot-and-cold situation around Monster Hunter: World, but you'd be wrong.
