DmC: Devil May Cry is the fifth game in the hack-and-slash third-person action series and the first not largely developed by Capcom. This title is a reimagining of the series, with the same protagonist Dante, but set in an alternate universe. The Dante in this game is very different from before, doing away with the trademark white hair and altering the main character as well as the game's tone with a much more Western influence. The gameplay is still largely identical as Dante engages many opponents with a fast fighting style, stringing together combos and hits in quick succession.
About the story
Dante, a young demon hunter, teams up with his estranged twin brother Vergil in order to save humanity from the powerful influence of the demon king Mundus.

Worth Playing
By Cody MedellinLike many ports of some of the big games from the past two console generations, the appeal of Devil May Cry is that it's now available in portable form. There's nothing new here to tempt older fans otherwise, but what they'll find here is familiar. The switching of aspect ratios is odd, and the fixed camera angles and more puzzle-oriented focus will throw off some people, but for everyone who hasn't done so before, this is still a solid action game that's worth checking out.

By Renan FontesFor the title that essentially originated the modern hack 'n' slash genre, Devil May Cry holds up tremendously well.

By Dan RizzoBeing able to button mash my way through different portions, had me tense like I was fighting for my life, trying to get through hoards of these creatures. While difficulty may have been somewhat unbalanced, the game was so much fun to dive back into. It was wary about going into the very first title in the series almost two decades later, but it’s epic plot, amazing cast of characters, it’s incredible lead, and no doubt it’s fun in exploration just makes this game a classic that every gamer should experience. Devil May Cry, is timeless.

By GameMAGDevil May Cry for Nintendo Switch is a cult action game with great style, deep atmosphere and a fascinating adventure elements. Even after 18 years it is good to play. So it's really a shame that Capcom has not fixed all the problems with bugs and sell the game with a high price and without DMC 2 and DMC 3. Outdated PS2-graphics in HD looks tolerable in portable format, built-in achievements is nice addition, but until the publisher does not reduce the cost at least twice, it is better to spend money on something else.
