Devil May Cry 5 is a brand-new entry in the legendary over-the-top action series Devil May Cry. The game features three playable characters, each with a radically different stylish combat play style as they take on the city overrun with demons. Developed with Capcom’s in-house proprietary RE engine, the series continues to achieve new heights in fidelity with graphics that utilize photorealistic character designs and stunning lighting and environmental effects.

The Devil May Cry game with my personal favourite combat, but also some of the most garbage writing and humour as if it was written for a 14 year old.
this game is great, and is carried by the amazing combat, having perfected the smooth & fluidity across the Devil May Cry games, while although it is a great starter in the series, i still have a lot of problems when it comes with it, especially when it comes to characters and just how bland they are compared to their past games (Lady is probably like one of the most bland characters in videogame history in 5, which is insane cause she has so much character in the past games)
worth checking it out if you care about combat about all else, but the story and characters are god awful written

Absolutely a peak action game, it's short campaign with the unlock system does hinder you really utilizing the full potential of the game's combat system so I'm glad I went back and replayed some levels once I unlocked more moves and it really clicked. Dante's moveset is given some fresh new additions that are welcome and the returning weapons are the necessary ones to really make this the right balance for the perfect stylish action game character. Nero also is much better than 4 with the variety of the robotic arms really allowing much more experimentation and the air juggle potential later on is insane and extremely fun. V is fun to use but his playstyle does sometimes get really repetitive and one-note but the game does use him sparingly enough to not make it a big bother.
I did have issues with how samey a lot of the levels looked as well as the level gimmicks not being that interesting and the story ending too soon after things got really interesting. It's still a must play game regardless and I'm glad I finally got through this entire series and had a blast.
