Still, that’s where the new characters come in. In short, this is DMC, old-school, and it’s great to have it back. The story is typically convoluted by DMC standards, and is peppered with the usual irreverence you would expect, particularly from Dante, who basks in delivering comical dialogue and showing off in ostentatious cut scenes. The frame rate boost in particular is a perfect complement to Devil May Cry’s intrinsically fast-paced swordplay, and not once did I experience any discernible dip in performance as I sliced and diced my way through hordes of demonic foes. As such, it looks and plays better than ever, even though some of the texture work is a little dated in places, which isn’t exactly a surprise considering the game is seven years old.

The addition of a HD spit and polish, plus three new playable characters, means there’s plenty of content to sink your teeth into-even if it fails to eschew some of the glaring errors that were present in its original incarnation.įor better or for worse, this is the same game you played back in 2008, minus the obvious appeal of a silky-smooth 60fps and sharper visuals. Despite this, there’s plenty of reason to get excited about the re-release of 2008’s somewhat critically polarizing entry, which perhaps acts as a stern reminder of why we fell in love with Devil May Cry to begin with all those years ago. With a new game yet to be announced and sales of the most recent entry, DmC: Devil May Cry, performing under expectations, the future of this once-mighty brand appears decidedly ambiguous. The release of Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition comes at a slightly inauspicious point in the venerable hack-’n-slash series’ life time.
