Overall, Devil May Cry 5: Devil Hunter Edition is a great game to have included on Nintendo Switch 2 and developers did an excellent job of porting to the console without compromising the experience all all. The beautiful gothic aesthetic in art style, environments, and soundtrack convey the developers message perfectly. Split time between 3 different protagonists makes for a more interesting experience both as far as the story and in combat. This game is a must play, especially if you have not played it before on other platforms or only play on Nintendo consoles.

Even seven years after its original release, Devil May Cry 5 remains one of the best action games currently available. Its combat feels incredibly modern, the campaign remains fun, and the huge variety of characters ensures excellent replayability. Despite some limitations on the Switch 2, the Devil Hunter Edition also does justice to the game's legacy.

Almost 7 years after its original release, Devil May Cry 5: Devil Hunter Edition makes it clear that Capcom's action game stands the test of time. Playing on a Nintendo Switch 2 comes with little to no compromises, so if this is your first time experiencing it, know you'll get the real deal and a game worth absolutely every penny.

Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition proves that time has done nothing to diminish one of the finest entries in the series, while also demonstrating that the Switch 2 is now capable of handling truly high quality ports. Its campaign remains explosive, stylish, and narratively compelling, and its combat still delivers the depth, variety, and flair that define the franchise. The main drawback is that this is not the definitive edition, as it omits several key features from the Special Edition and relegates Vergil Mode to an extra that adds more gameplay value than narrative significance. Even so, for newcomers, it remains an outstanding way to experience one of the greatest action games of recent years.

Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition is perfect for those with no prior experience of the adventures of Dante and his companions. In other words, me! It is easy to get into the story thanks to a "movie" that recounts the series' history, while various difficulty levels and accessibility options ensure players of all skill levels can enjoy the game. The characters' roguish charisma makes every moment entertaining, and time spent with the trio certainly never drags.

Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition on Switch 2 is an impressive port that still feels fresh even considering its age. It’s performance is great, especially in handheld mode. If you did already play it on a different platform, specifically if you grabbed the Special Edition, then the omissions mean you could skip this version and not miss anything. But if this would be your first time following Dante, Nero, and V on this new adventure, it’s a great way to play it.

The variety of character abilities is pure poetry—classic Devil May Cry. Even the story holds its own by fleshing out the backgrounds of certain characters. The problem lies in the pacing; repetitive levels quickly lead to boredom.

DMC 5 on Switch 2 is sick. It looks great, runs really smooth, and the combat is still some of the best in any action game. Really impressive port and a must-play on Switch 2.

Großartiger und zeitloser Titel, zu dem ich immer wieder gerne zurückkehre. DMC5 ist eine Wucht und besitzt ein Kampfsystem nahe der Perfektion.

Mi Devil May Cry favorito después del 3. El juego es buenísimo, y sí, funciona a 60fps estables. Una lástima que la resolución sea tan pobre. A veces es mejor no lanzar un producto en otra plataforma y dejarlo donde está, en lugar de hacer tantos sacrificios y manchar la experiencia. Si pudiera devolverlo, lo haría.

The game is great... on another system, but on the s2. It runs poorly. Not only it cheaper to purchase on any other system, but on the s2, the framerate often drops to 12 fps during heavy action scenes. The graphics is also a downgrade compared to pc and Xbox as well. Avoid this purchase.
