DmC: Devil May Cry
The game is set in an alternate reality of the series. The game's story takes place in Limbo City, a modern-day city secretly controlled by all-powerful demons, manipulating humanity through the comforts of life, with the demons themselves residing in a parallel plane called 'Limbo'. Living on the fringes of the brainwashed society is Dante, a young man at odds with the demons who constantly hunt him, and the civilian authorities they control. Dante is warned by a young woman named Kat that he is in danger just as a Hunter demon drags him into Limbo. Dante navigates the Bellevue Pier's carnival and kills the demon with Kat's aid, who can see into Limbo with her psychic powers. Dante returns to the human world and accepts Kat's offer to meet with her boss, Vergil. Along the way, Kat explains that Vergil leads "The Order", a rogue vigilante organisation intent on exposing the demons and releasing the world from their control. Vergil tells Dante that with his help the Order can bring down the demons. Dante learns that he and Vergil are not only long lost twin brothers but also Nephilim, the children of Angel and Demon and the only beings capable of killing the cruel demon king Mundus. Their demon father Sparda was Mundus' chief lieutenant in the war against the angels until he betrayed Mundus when he fell in love with the angel Eva and sired the twins. Mundus, afraid of the Nephilim, attacked the family and killed Eva.

I hate it so much when they make a definitive edition of a game, but it’s only available on consoles, Like Prototype 1.

Perhaps the most misunderstood game in the DMC franchise. DMC 2 still sucks ass.

Ignoring all the "This is not real DMC" matters, this is a very good game. It is too good tbh

Look, the story is mid at best and Dante looks like he lost a bet at Hot Topic, but hear me out. The combat? Absolutely sends it. Juggling demons with angel and demon weapons never gets old, the style meter stays popping and the level design is genuinely creative in ways that catch you off guard. It's flashy, it's fast and it respects your time. Yeah the narrative is cringe and emo Dante can stay in 2013 where he belongs, but if you can stomach that, there's a legitimately fun action game underneath all the questionable decisions. Worth it on sale, easy.

Now that Capcom has guaranteed they'll continue supporting the original series, I hope the reboot becomes an alternate series and continues to develop alongside the mainline games. The reboot has its own charm, and I'd really like to see how Western developers would create a modern game with combat system that has this much depth.
CAPCOM PLEASE RELEASE DEFINITIVE EDITION TO PC!!!

I will never forgive the DMC fan base for not allowing a sequel to this game and hating on it.

Listen, its a fun ass game. Don't drink the auto-hate juice. Yeah, sure, whatever, a little off brand, but it is a fun time.
