Throw all these together and you’ll guarantee yourself an SS rank in style. You can also upgrade Dante’s skills at a divinity statue close by and add more combo styles to his repertoire. When you get bored with swordplay, the game will throw you more weapons of play with to spice up your combo, namely the Enyx gauntlets, Aquila projectile cutting blades and the Revenant shotgun. All non-firing weapons retain their combos, so there’s not a whole lot of combos to remember, just which trigger to hold for Arbiter or Osiris moves. Your flawless performance is gauged across the D to SSS grades evade all attacks while keeping your cool with the countless of styles and your score will get a boost with combo bonuses and multipliers.

Combos can be chained for a slew of never-ending attacks all while the R1 button is primed for last-minute dodging. Players will be introduced to the Rebellion’s alternate forms, the Arbiter, a demonic axe made for heavy attacks and the Osiris, an angelic sickle for lighter, but faster attacks.īattle style is still the combo-mashing funtime the franchise is known for. It is then we are introduced to Dante’s Angel and Demon forms, which brings to mind Castlevania: Lords of Shadows and even inFAMOUS with the familiar red and blue colours. Eventually, Vergil also assists Dante to come to terms with his untapped power, which is good because sword-fights and guns can only take you so far. Dante is still highly skilled with his Rebellion sword and guns, taking out demons big and small with competent effort. Which brings us to the DMC style we know and love.

Dante remains ignorant about his hidden past until he meets up with the leader of “The Order”, his brother Vergil, who seeks his help to destroy Mundus’ grip on the city. But I guess you can’t blame the guy.Īnd Dante finds himself around demons in the alternate world of Limbo and was helped out by psychic medium girl Kat, a member of “The Order”. Mundus now controls the people of the city in human form lying in wait, until Dante draws too much attention to himself. New Dante’s dystopian future is heralded by the reign of Mundus, the demon emperor, who seeks the sons of Sparda as revenge for his betrayal as Mundus’ right-hand man when he fell in love with an angel who gave Sparda Dante and Vergil. It features a reimagining of lead protagonist Dante no longer a half-demon mercenary, but a demon-hunting nephilim, a half-demon, half-angel hybrid in an all new story taking place in an alternate canonical universe. But is this reboot damned?ĭmC: Devil May Cry (or, for the sake of redundancy, DmC) is the fifth title of the Devil May Cry hack-and-slash series. Dante returns in a new form in Capcom’s reboot of the Devil May Cry franchise.
