The onslaught of things to shoot, crush or skewer demons with is always exhilarating, and done ample. justice by Capcom’s RE Engine
Devil May Cry V rises above the rest of Hack And Slash and by its own merits becomes the current benchmark of the genre.

Peak combat, amazing and over the top story, great enemy design, exceptional bosses and insane soundtrack. This game does everything right and more. Every character is different and I had great time with them all not to mention that replayability and skill ceiling are almost infinite. Would give it 11/10 if I could

Devil May Cry 5 is 99 percent about doing things that are totally sweet and looking totally sweet while doing them. There’s no thematic depth waiting beneath its bombastic, blood-drenched glamour and its vulcanizing, improvisational violence choreography. But when Hideaki Itsuno’s unlikely sequel drew me into a meditative flow of stabbing angry skeletons with a sword the height and width of a Bob’s Big Boy statue, I still found myself carried back to electric moments and powerful memories.
Aside from my story gripes with Lady and Trish and my couple of issues with the Devil Breaker, Devil May Cry 5 practically exceeded my expectations. As a fan of the series all the way back to day one, and especially a fan of Devil May Cry 4 and my man dude Nero, Devil May Cry 5 is not only an excellent character action game. It’s also a mostly satisfying end to the story. I’m sure there’s more Devil May Cry to be had from here, but the story that started all the way back 2001 finally feels like a complete work, and that’s a rare treat.
Devil May Cry 5 is a solid, addictive and visually satisfying entry in the DMC series. With a little bit more content, it would have been an even better game.
Devil May Cry 5 is a very good and engaging episode for the lovable franchise. All three playable characters feel great, and you really should try it if you're a fan of the beat-them-all genre.
As much as I can gripe about its flaws, it’s hard not to grin when you’re shoving a running motorcycle wheel into a demon’s face. But this won’t become another action game classic.
Devil May Cry 5 is the best game of the franchise (with Devil May Cry 3 a close second). The story is great and very entertaining, the graphics are somewhat insane, the characters are great, the music is really good, the enemy design is very well done, the bosses are chaotic, and the gameplay is excellent, awesome and very fun with great weapon variety that makes you want to get better in the game to have way more fun. Capcom, take your time for Devil May Cry 6, it needs to be the best ending possible for the franchise to surpass this game. It's a game that proves that a franchise doesn't always need to change to save itself, but to let time pass and make a game that is totally worth your time and that you will love.

The combo system is great. Some of the characters are clearly more fun to use than others (Dante is super freeform meanwhile V is kinda boring). Most boss fights are really enjoyable.

Actually pretty fun and very fleshed out combat mechanics, just gets extremely repetitive, coupled with the fact that there is basically no story. It's funny though, so if you're into hack and slash bayonetta-type of games, this is even better.

The developers were unable to improve even after many years. Along with the consequential implementation of some pupulating in-game elements that catered to marketing expert-managers' demands, it became a foolish opportunity for the DMC5 developers to create the worst Devil May Cry game. As a result, it unfortunately delivers empty areas without objects, architecture, platform or environmental gameplay. This allows the dumb AI enemies to remain dumb, as they won't get stuck anywhere or cause any game freezes, also the worst idea and dumbest thing: the auto-combo mode wich shouldn't exist in an game, can be used in an empty and dumb content. The only redeeming factor are some boss battles, of those found in previous DMC games. If you would like to give a try DMC4 special offers much better and more varied content, in high performance 60FPS. Or try the much better, smarter and harder challanging combats, great gameplay, strong artdesign and performance "Metal Gear Rising"

Summary A brand-new entry in the over-the-top action series comes complete with its signature blend of high-octane stylized action and otherworldly and original characters the series is known for. Years have passed since the legions of hell have set foot in this world, but now a new demonic invasion has begun, and humanity’s last hope will rest ...
