Three hunters, one demon invasion
You pick up the job in Red Grave City, where the seeds of a demon tree have taken root. Nero arrives with his partner Nico in their Devil May Cry motorhome, down his right arm and up for a fight. He is joined by legendary demon hunter Dante and the mysterious V. Each has a radically different combat style, so missions change rhythm depending on who you play. Nico builds Nero's mechanical Devil Breaker arms, which give him extra powers for taking on demons like the blood-sucking Empusa and the giant Goliath.
Stylish combat built for showing off
This is high-octane action where how you fight matters as much as whether you win. You chain swords, guns, and special moves to keep the style rank climbing, swapping weapons and tactics mid-fight. Nero's Devil Breakers each work differently, Dante brings a deep arsenal and multiple styles, and V fights through summoned creatures instead of getting close himself. It is difficult, fast-paced, and precise. Button-mashing gets you through the early fights, but the game rewards variety, timing, and learning each character properly.
Bosses, noise, and photoreallic mayhem
You fight across an overrun city to the beat of a killer soundtrack with tracks built to match the pace of the action. Epic bosses punctuate the invasion, big adrenaline-fueled fights that ask you to read attacks and answer with style. It looks sharp too, with photorealistic character designs, detailed lighting, and environmental effects from Capcom's RE engine. Expect gore, violence, and strong language throughout. The tone stays over-the-top, with original otherworldly characters, sarcasm, and dramatic family conflict holding the missions together.
