3.5/5

Personally - I think it's underrated. Mostly reminding me of Bayonetta, it's a great hack n slash game.

The combat is really smooth and enjoyable. Controls are pretty much the same as in the other games, but using Angel/Demon weapons and making combos is just satisfying. There are many enemy types, all of them requiring different combos in order to defeat.

Game's aesthetic looks great and it runs great. I absolutely loved the variety of ideas and creativity they put into designing these stages.

Soundtrack goes incredibly hard, it's very diverse and catchy as well.
The game is linear but you've still got more freedom to discover compared to, let's say, DMC 4. Like in the other games, there are secret missions, which are much more diverse.

Now onto some things I didn't like - as many say, the game is a bit generic. Compared to the original, the characters are a bit cringy. Too many action sequences and not enough playable content - I would really like if the boss fights were harder and if there was more of them overall. It's also noticeably easier than the other games.

The devil trigger is just weird and you can't rebind it on controller.

I think it's an enjoyment to play, even as your very first DMC game.
