Abstract: It wasn't until I revisited Ninja Theory's take on the franchise that it truly sunk in just how much of a return to the conventions of the past Devil May Cry V is.Where the reboot zealously sought newcomers, Devil May Cry V feels unapologetically slanted...
It's one of the rare missteps though in an otherwise excellent game. Load times could be tightened up. It's frustrating that there's a load time before and after pretty much every cutscene, as well as every time you go into the upgrade menu. But again, I...

Truly delicious combat, Fabulous visuals, Innovative story presentation, Great new playable character, Vastly replayable, Immensely satisfying
Linear story, Not the longest game, Gameplay is uniform throughout
Devil May Cry 5 is such an extreme joy to play - and is built on such a logical, focused structure - that you'll find yourself returning to it again and again, whenever you feel the need for a blast of cathartic, cobweb-blowing, spectacularly stylish acti...
Abstract: Style is everything, and Devil May Cry 5 has it in spades. It's in the blithe way rakish new character V holds a book of poetry and reads from it in the middle of battle. It's in the adolescent aggression that flows through the attacks of Nero, the charac...

Great character variety, Beautiful visuals, Exceptional soundtrack, Embraces its absurdity
Story has some moments of poor pacing, New players will feel a little lost
These tattoos will be coming to a nerd near you soon.Devil May Cry 5 is the action game equivalent of a grown-up goth kid. It looks better than it ever has before, it works a lot harder than it used to, and it still has the same music taste. Each fight is...

Incredibly slick controls, gorgeous aesthetics, Combat so satisfying you'll never want to stop playing, High skill ceiling with excellent newcomer options
Could have used more missions per character, Ending feels a bit rushed, Mostly unobtrusive story that may confuse the unfamiliar
Capcom has done it again, re-energising a classic series like never before, and pushing the genre forward in a fresh way. It looks better than ever, plays better than ever. It's Devil May Cry better than ever...
