About

The Dante of DmC is a young man who has no respect for authority or society in general. Dante knows that he is not human, but also that he is not like the demons that have tormented him throughout his life. Caught between worlds, he feels like an outcast. He is now discovering and coming to terms with what it means to be the child of a demon and an angel. This split personality has a real impact on gameplay with Dante being able to call upon angel and demon abilities at will, transforming his Rebellion sword on the fly to dramatically affect both combat and movement.

    Ultimately, DmC Devil May Cry: Definitive Edition is a steal for its $39.99 price tag. It provides fantastic gameplay which is accessible to all, an ingenious redesign to a beloved franchise, some very memorable moments (including some of the finer voice acting in gaming, even if some of the dialogue is as cheesy as the game’s predecessors), fascinatingly executed social commentary, plenty of replay value and – something many games are missing these days – tons of good, pure fun.

    With combat so fluid and well-implemented, my only real concern would be the same issues I've had with the game in the past, and others of its ilk. Instead of levels that flow along, with enemies to fight and kill, DmC repeatedly locks you in an arena-style fights, and these instances are often easy to telegraph. ...Now, this is Devil Mary Cry, not an open world sandbox, but I feel it could be a little less rail road and more flexible, but it's a minor concern, and there's plenty of game here in the decent length campaign.

    If you like beat them all, it's definetely a game to do. I thought this new Dmc style was brilliant. The combat design is flowless : many weapons easy to use for an unstoppable killing spree. I played it on PS3 and then on PS4, and I didn't really see a difference, I'm just glad they included the Virgile's DLC.
