Spearheaded by Adi Shankar (who also brought us Netflix's...

"Please stay tuned for my next creation!"

Definitely not Dismal
It's official: Devil May Cry 5 has been yet another modern blockbuster for Capcom.

Capcom's Devil May Cry series is 20 years old today (the 23rd August), with the original Devil May Cry launching for PlayStation 2 all the way back in 2001.

News Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition PS5 Patch Fixes 120Hz Issue
Round two
Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition is one of the few games on PS5 that supports up to 120 frames-per-second, but the action title launched with a rather annoying issue. In short, if you played Special Edition on a display that has 120Hz functionality, the game would lock the console to that refresh rate, regardless of your preferred...

Hands On Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition on PS5 Is a Stylish Upgrade
S rank
Devil May Cry 5 is a frontrunner in the race for PlayStation 4’s flashiest game, so it’s no surprise that Capcom’s turning up the style for its PlayStation 5 upgrade. Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition – unlike so many next-gen re-releases – is a premium remaster, so there’s no free PS4 to PS5 path here. Fortunately, the Japanese...

News Devil May Cry 3 on PS4 Loses Out to Switch Exclusive Feature
No love for PlayStation?
Widely considered to be the best entry in the franchise, Devil May Cry 3 is launching on Nintendo Switch next month.

We're feeling a...
Game of the Year #5 - Devil May Cry 5
Hell yes
Devil May Cry 5 is Capcom back to its best.

In short, Devil May Cry 5 is easily one of the best...
News Don't Get Too Excited Over This Supposedly Secret Devil May Cry Video
DLC or a new game? We doubt it

News No More Devil May Cry 5 DLC as Development Has Finished, Capcom Reiterates
Cry all you want
Don't expect anything more from Devil May Cry 5, as Capcom producer Matt Walker has reiterated that development on the game has ended.

News Devil May Cry 5 Removes Ridiculous Bum Censorship on PS4, But Not in Europe
Eh?
What even is this story? If you've been keeping up, you'll already know that a scene in Devil May Cry 5 was censored on PlayStation 4 here in the West, and when we say censored, we mean the bare buttocks of a lady were partially obscured by lens flare. It was one of the most pointless and pedantic edits that we've seen in a long time. And now...
News Bloody Palace Mode Is Available Now in Devil May Cry 5 on PS4
No fooling
As announced last month, Capcom is bringing Bloody Palace Mode back to its OTT action series.

Apocalyptic
Devil May Cry 5 has sold over 2 million copies since its launch two weeks ago, on the 8th March. That's according to Capcom, with the company revealing the number during a GDC 2019 presentation.

News Sony Censorship Row Re-erupts with Inexplicable Devil May Cry 5 Edit
The butt of the joke

News Devil May Cry's Final Cinematic Trailer Is Sheer Spectacle, If a Bit Spoilery
You've been warned
The final trailer ahead of Devil May Cry 5's launch on the 8th March is about as dramatic as they come, and it's chock full of crazy imagery, ridiculous demons, and everything else that you'd expect of the franchise.

News Devil May Cry 5 Earns the Approval of Fans in New Trailer
Smokin' sexy style
There have been some real ups and downs in the Devil May Cry series. The second game is widely recognised as kinda bad, while Ninja Theory's DmC: Devil May Cry is the divisive black sheep.

Dante stop believin'
Wherever you stand on DmC: Devil May Cry, the fact is that Ninja Theory didn’t deliver the game that fans wanted.

Oh FFS Capcom
Capcom, why? You were doing so well! Just when you're on the verge of thinking Capgod is back, the Japanese company does something really stupid to remind you that yes, this is still modern Capcom.

News Devil May Cry 5's Dante Battle Music Has Not Gone Down Well
Scream and shout
Capcom's released a new music track from Devil May Cry 5, and well... We've struggled to find anyone saying anything positive about it.
