“ Devil Trigger” is still one of the best theme songs in video gaming history. V is still the controversial new character that some hate, while others, myself included, love. Dante’s arsenal of weapons is as stupid as it has always been. Nero’s brand new look and attitude are as amazing as before. Do you want to turn your Devil May Cry experience into a borderline Dynasty Warriors knockoff, all while testing how many enemies your PS5 can render at once? Legendary Dark Knight is the mode for you.īesides these new modes and the next-gen graphical improvements, this is, by and large, the same fantastic game from 2019. And by that, I mean A LOT more enemies onscreen, all of them dealing more damage than usual. In theory, it’s almost the same thing as the game’s normal Hard Mode, but with more enemies onscreen. The other addition included in this version is the return of the Legendary Dark Knight mode from Devil May Cry 4. His campaign feels like an afterthought of sorts at times. You’re not going to see crazy set pieces like the ones featured in the main campaign with Nero, Dante, and Sassy Kylo Ren. Vergil’s campaign is short and almost completely devoid of a story or cutscenes. He does not feature the best campaign, however. For as much as I love playing as Nero, and for as much as I love Dante’s Michael Jackson-esque hat, I actually think that Vergil features the best combat system in this entire game. More combos and abilities can be unlocked later through Vergil’s journey, but that’s his core gameplay. He can teleport towards the enemy you’re currently locked on, making an already stupidly fast-paced combat system feel even faster, and conjure a clone for a few moments, essentially doubling your damage output. He also has a basic long-range attack meant to extend your combo streak, and two amazing powers. Playing as Vergil is, well, amazing! As expected, he is stupidly overpowered, starting out with two types of sword, as well as Nero’s Devil Arm from Devil May Cry 4. You’re here for the brand new modes and the chance to play as fan favorite Vergil once again. Let’s be honest, you’re here for something else. Sure, ray tracing is a welcoming feature and the option to run the game at 120fps is great if you can afford a TV that actually features said frequency, but if you want to pick this game up, it’s not for the graphical enhancements. Unlike my previous review of the PS5 version of DIRT 5, there is more to Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition than just pretty visuals and better performance. There aren’t many cutscenes in Vergil’s campaign, with some of them running at 30fps for some bizarre reason.
