DmC: Devil May Cry PC Video Game




 DmC: Devil May Cry (PC Video Game)




Oh! Wait is it Dante? O yeah it is him. Cooler than its original appearance and with a pinch of western look , Dante is back and  this time with a bang. If you are an action game lover , than trust me you owe yourself to own DmC. Playing the game on your PC with a high end graphics card is a total different experience, may it be the cut-scene , the gameplay , fast slicing of enemy coupled with different acrobatic stunts everything looks stunning.

It was thought to be dreadful when a game like this one (being one of the most popular games of Capcom)  handed over to ninja theory. Previous versions of DmC were developed by Capcom and it being a japan based establishment has a main stream of fan followers from that part of the globe but when the game was decided to be handed to ninja theory which is a western based establishment with an average track record, it was bound to get rotten eggs and tomatoes, however the game rocked!

I personally felt that the gameplay of DmC was better than all its predecessor, the camera control is stable and it could be controlled with your mouse motion (unlike its predecessors).

Whatever be the changes in the appearances of our game’s protagonist but DmC is similar to its original versions at its core. This Game is not a sequel but a reboot. DmC: devil may cry is cool action packed game with our same Quick witted protagonist( slightly changed in appearance)but with whole new storyline.



The story of the game is set in modern days and it is beautifully portrayed and as we proceed in the game the story unfolds and it tells us all about the origin of  its protagonist Dante. The game reveals that he is a nephilim (child of an angel mother Eve and  demon father Sparda ). Dante fights his way throughout the game together with his long lost brother Vergil. Dante is helped by a hooded figure while his times in limbo who introduces herself as Kat (limbo was a parallel world of demons but is hidden from humans in the game) to finish the king of hell Mundus (primary antagonist of this game) in order to avenge his mother’s murder and to save humanity.




Dante has two categories of weapons. The first category is angelic weapons and the second is demonic weapons. The angelic weapons are faster to strike multiple demons while the demonic weapons are slower but causes more damage (comes handy to breakthrough enemy’s shields) . There is also an angelic and a demonic grappling hook. The angelic grapple hook was used to pull yourself towards something (either a platform or a demon) while the demonic grapple hook came handy to pull something towards yourself. While in the middle of cutting and slicing different kinds of demons these grapple hooks was very effective to use as it allowed us to charge towards enemy or bring the enemy down to us (more effective on flying enemies). And when these movements are coupled with the melee attacks gained loads of style points.



Two parallel world exists in this game. First where the humans exists and the other which is demon’s world aka limbo city. Though the humans could not perceive the other side, the effects and damaged caused in limbo is reflected in human world. There are also mini challenges in the game which could be unlocked with a special type of keys found at some place in the game.

The game lacks when it comes to its boss fights , they are too easy to get through, in addition to that there aren’t much puzzles to solve. Other than that its superb!



Finally , I want you to ask yourself that are you a hardcore action game lover who likes a pinch of erotic contents in the game, If the answer is YES, this is the game you don’t wanna miss. You will definitely enjoy every bit of the game. I give it 8.5 out of 10.
