Devil May Cry 5 Review

It's been a long while since we had a really cracking DMC game, and 5 is the crème-de-la-crème of Devil May Cry. It pulls you in, drags you front and centre and presents action packed demon slaying adventures which are just brutal and fun in equal measure.

Overall, though, this is high caliber violence from a publisher who’s on a serious roll right now.
