Devil May Cry 5 (PS3)

Devil May Cry refers to a franchise consisting of five video games that showcase the hack and slash genre. Hideki Kamiya created the franchise, which Capcom developed into the action video games. The story has a contemporary setting. Interestingly, the series was supposedly being developed to become a sequel to the Resident Evil series, which is another popular Capcom offering. However, Devil May Cry showed a completely different style that it was made into a completely new intellectual property, instead.

The focus of the series is the protagonist Dante’s quest for revenge on account of his mother’s murder. So, he has to fight and annihilate demons in heavy combat. Player must try to execute several series of attacks while avoiding get hit in the stylized fight scenes. There is emphasis on variety of attacks that. This somehow maintains the style level.

The Devil May Cry has enjoyed success, having even been awarded by Capcom the “Platinum Title”. This success is limited to the video game titles but manages to translate into merchandise, such as comic books, collectibles and action figures.

Recently though, Capcom has passed on the reins to Ninja Theory as developer as officially announced ruing the 2010 Tokyo Game Show. DmC – Devil May Cry, the game developed by Ninja Theory, showcases a parallel universe copy of the protagonist Dante.
