Devil May Cry 5 Standard Edition - PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4

Devil May Cry 5 is an excellent game, which I would recommend to any fan of action games with lots of fighting. There are three playable characters, Nero, V, and the one and only Dante. One thing that is amazing is simply the number of techniques and moves that your characters have access to. Along with Fantastic Graphics and game play this game makes for the perfect combination of fantasy and action adventure!

Wow! Just the graphics it self is awesome, with plenty eye candy goodness. Bought the game with the recommendation of my friend. He wasn’t lying about how great the game is. Looking forward for the part 6 to come out. A must game to add to your PS4 collection.

Devil May Cry 5 is pure, unrelenting, action bliss. This is the best action game of the year. The game is a welcome return to the long-standing series that has been dormant in the mainline series since 2008's DMC4. While I personally enjoyed DmC, the reboot, a lot, many were dismayed with it. Well, this is a game that will please fans of both worlds. The game follows Nero, Dante, and a newcomer, V. All the characters are well fleshed out with fantastic combat styles unique to each of them. The story is campy yet fun, with its fair share of surprisingly emotionally resonant scenes. What separates DMC5 from many other games is that it's not so much focused on killing monsters and demons as it is about how you kill them. Style is the name of the game. DMC5 will actively push you stretch the limits of how long you can continually punish a lone, poor demon. The phenomenal combat paired along with the excellent pacing makes the full package something you can't pry yourself from. The minute the game ended, I wanted nothing more to jump back in. I highly recommend you begin with the standard difficulty when first starting off rather than the "Human" difficulty. Don't be fooled, however, as the hardest difficulty you can pick right off the bat is only the second easiest difficulty. This game wants you to keep replaying the game. New systems, mechanics, weapons, and combos are sprinkled throughout the main campaign, demanding that you take advantage of the new skill. You literally receive a game-changing ability right at the end of the game, essentially telling you to replay the game again. If you want to test your might, the Bloody Palace game mode is a extremely fun mode that will constantly test how good you really think you are with a 99 stage gauntlet through all the enemies and bosses in the game--using only one life. You die, you start from ground zero. Capcom is killing it. No one could've predicted such a strong redemption arc with the company, but here we are with Devil May Cry 5 (and Resident Evil 2 remake). Do yourself a favor and dive into Devil May Cry 5. If you're new to the series, don't worry, there's a video included with the game that will go over most of the main plot points from the previous games. The game absolutely can be played stand-alone. And don't be surprised if you find yourself saying to yourself, "Pull my devil trigger." The game's soundtrack is an absolute beast. You'll see.

One of the best games I've ever played. Killer music, excellent gameplay, great story if you're a fan of the series. I'd recommend this to anyone who likes action games at all. The campaign is pretty short, but it's a game you're supposed to replay on higher difficulties to get better rankings, and a survival mode is coming out soon. You can swing a motorcycle like a sword and rev a sword like a motorcycle. Buy it.

The music, the characters, the story, the gameplay, it is all here. Being the fifth game in the series, not including DmC which was a reboot, this brings back Nero, Dante, and a new character named V who are all playable. Each one comes with their own unique style and motivates the player to get better while increasing their rank mid-battle. The story is rather short which took me about 12 hours, but you will not unlock everything on your first playthrough. There is microtransanctions to give you a boost, but you do not need to as I have almost unlocked everything after two playthroughs. Other than the story, bloody palace is another mode where you go through 100 floors of enemies and bosses and really tests your skills.
