Taken as a full package, then, Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition is an impressive one. The gameplay is as deep and long-lasting as the player wants it to be, there’s always new combos and combat potential to unlock and tons of difficulties and challenges to work through; now, even more so with addition of Vergil and the new modes present. That being said, DMC5 was never perfect.
Getting to play around with his and the original trio’s flashy maneuvers in Turbo and Legendary Dark Knight Mode is an experience you’ll never forget. Having to leave your prior save progress behind and start anew is pretty disappointing, of course. But first-time players and returning veterans will get an equal amount of enjoyment out of this excellent special edition.
Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition is the definitive next-gen Devil May Cry experience. This iteration took what was already one of the best action games of the last console generation and refined everything from the performance to the visuals. Even if you’ve experienced this game before, it’s worth a second look for all of the added enhancements. And if you missed it the first time around, this is the version to play.
