Critic Reviews


God is a Geek - Chris White - 10 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is a stunning hack and slash game and never fails to amaze. Combat this good should be illegal.

Rely On Horror - Jordan Leendertsen - 10 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is a triumphant return to form for the classic action series, offering polished graphics and the series' best gameplay to date.

Leadergamer - Alper Dalan - Turkish - 5 / 5 stars
Every gamer should definitely experience this beauty!

Saudi Gamer - عصام الشهوان - Arabic - 5 / 5
One of the best and deepest battle systems, making for an exciting game that always pushes you to do better and learn more, coupled to an eclectic and cool cast of characters starring in breathtaking scenes with plenty of enemies and bosses to strut your stuff on. A triumphant return after 11 years and an instant classic.

Twinfinite - Hayes Madsen - 5 / 5
The wait between Devil May Cry 4 and Devil May Cry 5 might have been long, but the payoff is more than worth it. It doesn't deviate from the series' formula, but instead refines it to a polished sheen; one that's packed with an absurd amount of style and spirit. This is a must-play action game for fans of the series and the genre alike.

Destructoid - Chris Carter - 10 / 10
I'm going to be playing Devil May Cry 5 weeks from now in the short term and years from now long term. This is the sort of fine-tuned wacky action game the genre deserves.

Telegraph - Olivia White - 5 / 5 stars
It’s stylish. It’s cool. It’s supremely fun, fluid and rewarding.

Guardian - Patrick Lum - 5 / 5 stars
High-octane challenges in this irresistible romp have resurrected an action series that's been dormant for over a decade

Game Rant - Dalton Cooper - 5 / 5 stars
Capcom's Devil May Cry 5 is an insane, over-the-top, adrenaline-fueled action game that stomps its foot on the gas right at the start and never lets up.

Fandom - Dom Peppiatt - 5 / 5
This is the best Devil May Cry yet. Each character has enough depth to fill a game by themselves, the story does exactly what it needs to, the twists and turns keep you on edge and the combat sets a new benchmark for action games as a whole. Capcom has made a masterclass in stylish combat gaming here, and there’s enough content to keep players happy — even if it takes another 11 years for a sequel.

Remote Play - Rayyan Javeed - 10 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is a stylish, action packed, metal opera that is ready to rock your face off.

Wccftech - Francesco De Meo - 9.8 / 10
Devil May Cry V is the best entry in the series and one of the best character action games ever released. In addition to its excellent combat mechanics and level design, which expand greatly on the elements introduced in past games, the story and characters had never before received such focus in Devil May Cry. The game may be lacking in extra content such as the fan-favorite Bloody Palace mode at launch, but don't let this small flaw prevent you from getting what will surely be one of the 2019 Game of the Year contenders.

Nerd Much? - Bobby Bernstein - 9.7 / 10
Devil May Cry 5’s self-awareness is a big part of what makes it such a great game. It doesn’t care that it’s still a linear game; it doesn’t care that it’s a hack ‘n slash in 2019; it doesn’t care that its story is mostly fan service. It embraces everything that it is – despite those elements typically being labeled as dated – and we love it more because it’s doing that.

PowerUp! - Matthew Manchester - 9.6 / 10
"As far as gameplay, I can't see many people not enjoying this. Devi May Cry 5 has been one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had."

Heavy - Elton Jones - 9.5 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is without a doubt the new series plateau.

IGN - Mitchell Saltzman - 9.5 / 10
Devil May Cry 5's trio of outstanding combat styles set a new high bar for the series, and its mysterious story keeps things interesting along the way.

GamingTrend - Travis Northup - 95 / 100
DMC 5 is probably the best hack-and-slash game you'll play all year, and definitely the most stylish.

Pardis Game - Matin Nasiri - Persian - 9.5 / 10
Devil May Cry V is an enjoyable and memorable experience that is loyal to its roots while being modernized by the new standards.

Niche Gamer - Brandon Orselli - 9.5 / 10
I really couldn’t be happier with how this game turned out, and I’m a thousand times excited for where Capcom might take the franchise next.

GamePitt - Rob Pitt - 9.5 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is easily one of my Game of the Year 2019 contenders, even though it’s only March! The smooth and fluid gameplay, combined with the over the top action and intense metal soundtrack, creates a truly demonic and exciting experience no matter what system you’re on. Although the story is a little fragmented and delivered out of order in places, the reconstructed narrative is just as wacky and creative as the gameplay!

As a fan of the original games, I can’t help but love Devil May Cry 5. Not because it’s another game in the franchise, but because it’s clearly the best game in the franchise by a long shot and it’s also yet another amazing achievement from Capcom.

COGconnected - Alexander Thomas - 94 / 100
Devil May Cry 5 excels at bringing back that iconic feeling the franchise is known for and does so with killer style, strategic, fast-paced combat, and a pumping soundtrack. With a cast of both familiar faces in Trish and Lady, as well as newcomers Nico and V, this is a game that gives me confidences for the future of the Devil May Cry series.

Hobby Consolas - Álvaro Alonso - Spanish - 93 / 100
On top of being one of the best looking action games ever made, none other hack'n slash has ever been so complex and varied, but also fun. It may be all about demons and hell, but Devil May Cry 5 is like reaching heaven.

GameCrate - Angelo D'Argenio - 9.3 / 10
If you are a long-time Devil May Cry fan, or just an action game fan in general, then Devil May Cry 5 is a must-buy. It's a refreshing retreat into absurdity inspired by the late 90s yet modernized for current day audiences.

Generación Xbox - Spanish - 9.3 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 brings variety to a genre that seems to have invented everything but nothing further from reality.

Xbox Achievements - Richard Walker - 91 / 100
A triumphant return for Capcom's coolest series, Devil May Cry 5 is a stupidly slick game that does almost everything right. It'll totally pull your Devil Trigger.

IGN Spain - Juan García - Spanish - 9.1 / 10
DMC5 makes even better what this franchise does best, improving on its formula in almost every way, but doesn't do anything new on the process. The game doesn't has any hiccups or problems so if you are the kind of gamer that loves this frantic action games, you'll be more than happy with Capcom's latest creation.

Spaziogames - Domenico Musicò - Italian - 9.1 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is one of the best entry in the series and fully represents Capcom reinassance. Three characters with three different combat systems are enough to satisfy every fan of stylish action.

We Got This Covered - David Morgan - 4.5 / 5 stars
A character action game with three characters, all of which are unique and fun in their own right, is a crowning achievement in design. Beautiful, stylish, and with depth that I feel compelled to conquer, Devil May Cry 5 gives back what you put in.

Just Push Start - Mark Fajardo - 9 / 10
Between a well-written story, one that ends on a shocking revelation, to interesting characters and everything else, especially the combat, Devil May Cry 5 is the total package and a must for hack-and-slash fans.

WellPlayed - Kieran Stockton - 9 / 10
DMC5 is a beautifully produced hack and slash game that proves that Capcom still has their finger on the pulse with the series

Cerealkillerz - Gabriel Bogdan - German - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry looks extremly stylish thanks to the RE Engine and it also plays the same with lots of variety. Besides a bit to classic ending for the story and a carelessly integrated online feature long-time Fans and newcomers alike will get an amazing package filled with the usual Devil May Cry action paired with lots of new gameplay elements and a well-made atmosphere.

TrueAchievements - Kevin Tavore - 4.5 / 5 stars
Devil May Cry 5 is so successful because it is impeccably designed from top to bottom with one goal in mind: be awesome. It knocks that goal out of the park in nearly every element of the game.

Windows Central - Asher Madan - 4.5 / 5 stars
Overall, Devil May Cry 5 is a fun game — one that is utterly spectacular — but Capcom could've done more to evolve the franchise's format.

Bazimag - Mahdi Eftekhari - Persian - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is a legendary comeback for Devil May Cry series and every aspect of it from its lovely fast paced gameplay to its unique and impactful story, all reminisce the great time we had with this series throughout the years. It's not a game only for true fans of Devil May Cry, I think every gamer should give it a chance to understand the true meaning of Hack 'n' Slash and Action Adventure.

Push Square - Robert Ramsey - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is quite easily one of the best action games on PS4. Flawless in the execution of its often jaw-dropping combat, it's a masterfully crafted title that begs to be played over and over again. Stunning presentation helps sell some of the coolest cutscenes going, and the story ties the series together with style. Among a sea of uninspired open world outings, Devil May Cry 5 is an explosion of character and laser-focused excellence. Capcom is well and truly back.

PC Gamer - Tom Senior - 90 / 100
Three great characters and a beautiful, fluid combat system make this a must-buy for hack-and-slash fans.

TheSixthAxis - Nick Petrasiti - 9 / 10
Hideaki Itsuno, my hat goes off to you and your crew. It's only March, and yet Devil May Cry 5 is another clear Game of the Year contender. The silly arguments on whether the original DMC or DmC is better can stop now, because DMC5 is here and it's bloody brilliant. This is a proper return to form for the series, something that fans of both can get behind.

Fextralife - Fexelea - 9 / 10
DMC5 is a worthy return to the main stage for action games, delivering unparalleled gameplay executed beautifully and with consistent, remarkable performance. Fans of the genre will love this title, and newcomers are likely to become fans.

Press Start - James Mitchell - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 rights all the wrongs of its predecessors with style and gusto, whilst being incredibly welcoming to series newcomers. The three playable characters bring great combat variety against the games huge slew of enemies and bosses. There are a few little niggles that stop the game from being the best it could be, but Devil May Cry 5 is undoubtedly one of the best in the series.

DualShockers - Ryan Meitzler - 9 / 10
11 years after we last saw Dante, Nero & Co., Devil May Cry 5 shows that the series is in fine form with one of its best installments yet.

Critical Hit - Darryn Bonthuys - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is a masterpiece in action. It has heart and charm in its epic story that comes full circle on the series. It looks sexier than the sun setting over a billionaire's collection of cars that are parked on a Santa Monica strip in California. It plays phenomenally well and will leave you drenched in sweat and satisfaction when the end credits roll, while wishing for more of its sassy attitude.

VideoGamer - Joshua Wise - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 revels in its own gleeful stupidity, presenting a world in which the most valuable commodity is style.

Easy Allies - Ben Moore - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 has some of the best combat yet seen in an action game.

GamesRadar+ - Oscar Taylor-Kent - 4.5 / 5 stars
Capcom has done it again, re-energising a classic series like never before, and pushing the genre forward in a fresh way. It looks better than ever, plays better than ever. It's Devil May Cry better than ever.

Softpedia - Cosmin Vasile - 9 / 10
As for those who haven't played any of the other titles, Devil May Cry 5 should be the reason to rectify the error. It took CAPCOM quite a long time, but at least they got it right, Devil May Cry 5 is a masterpiece.

GamingBolt - Will Borger - 9 / 10
It might have small flaws, but Devil May Cry V is like a fine meal; it deserves to be savored, and if you do you'll likely want to re-experience it. The fact you might see everything it has multiple times over in doing so is just a bonus.

Shacknews - Brittany Vincent - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is an excellent action game. It's an even better Devil May Cry, perhaps the best the series has seen just yet.

Cheat Code Central - Lucas White - 4.5 / 5
Aside from my story gripes with Lady and Trish and my couple of issues with the Devil Breaker, Devil May Cry 5 practically exceeded my expectations.

Worth Playing - Cody Medellin - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is a must-play title for action fans. The action is fast and fluid, and its accommodations for both skilled and new players make it easier for everyone to enjoy the gameplay. The title is packed with a healthy amount of levels and several different hooks to keep you playing after you finish the campaign. The presentation is stunning, and while the game does contain microtransactions, they can easily be ignored. Capcom has another winner on its hands, and DMC5 is an early contender for game of the year.

USgamer - Mike Williams - 4.5 / 5 stars
Capcom fills fans' dark souls with light! Devil May Cry 5 is an excellent return to form for the franchise, setting it up for a bright future. Nero's here, Dante's back in pitch-perfect form, and V provides a brand-new style of play. All Capcom really needed to do with Devil May Cry 5 was repackage the classic DMC gameplay with a modern coat of paint, but DMC 5 is an excellent, thoughtful update.

Metro GameCentral - 9 / 10
A perfectly judged comeback that's full of all the wild invention and stylish mayhem fans demand but proves surprisingly accessible and varied for everyone else.

GameSpot - Matt Espineli - 9 / 10
DMC5 proves the series can still be brilliant and imaginative without compromising its longest-held traditions.

ZTGD - Ken McKown - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is a return to the series in its truest form. Capcom has been a massive hot streak lately and I cannot wait to see what they do next. I loved DmC and thought it was a solid reboot, but I feel like continuing the original series was the right move. The combat feels great, the game looks oustanding, and the nostalgia is strong with this one.

GearNuke - Khurram Imtiaz - 9 / 10
This is the best Devil May Cry game since we met a young Vergil and Dante in Devil May Cry 3. While this sticks to its old-school game design and doesn't innovate much from it, the main attraction, which is its combat and iconic cast, is back in a highly polished package with jaw-dropping stylish action.

Atomix - Miguel Reyes - Spanish - 90 / 100
The wait for Devil May Cry 5 was long, but I think it was very worth it. The title is everything the fans expected from this installment and presents it to us in a game that looks and plays great, that offers new proposals within its already known formula and whose story, with excellent narrative rhythm, will fascinate all the veteran followers of good Dante for all the references and revelations that he exposes. It is by far the best game in the series.

The Games Machine - Daniele Dolce - Italian - 9 / 10
DMC is finally back, and it's here to teach all of us a lesson on how to make an excellent action game.

TrustedReviews - Jordan King - 4.5 / 5 stars
Devil May Cry 5 isn’t perfect, but Hideaki Itsuno’s latest effort builds on what came before it while staying true to everything I love about Dante and friends. Consider my Devil Trigger thoroughly pulled.

SECTOR.sk - T��a Mat��ov� - Slovak - 9 / 10
After more than 10 years Capcom brings us a Devil May Cry game that truly topped our expectations. By adding a variety of new inovations into a well built formula, they created a game worth the wait.

Marooners' Rock - Robert Workman - 9 / 10
This chapter of the series has something to offer for everyone with its array of characters, unpredictable story and impressive combat

PCWorld - Hayden Dingman - 4.5 / 5 stars
Devil May Cry 5 is a game that delights in setting the bar high up front and then continually one-upping itself with ever-more-ludicrous cutscenes and some of the most stylish combat in the business.

The Escapist - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is 99 percent about doing things that are totally sweet and looking totally sweet while doing them. There's no thematic depth waiting beneath its bombastic, blood-drenched glamour and its vulcanizing, improvisational violence choreography. But when Hideaki Itsuno's unlikely sequel drew me into a meditative flow of stabbing angry skeletons with a...

GotGame - David Poole - 9 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is intense, stylish, and full of over-the-top action that fans will likely love.

Oyungezer Online - Eren Eryürekli - Turkish - 8.9 / 10
Dante is spectacular, Nero is enjoyable and V is... well, different. At the end of the day, it's safe to say that DMC V is the best until something better comes up (perhaps Bayonetta 3) and it's a game everyone, fans and newcomers, can deeply enjoy.

Everyeye.it - Francesco Fossetti - Italian - 8.8 / 10
Another great center for Capcom remains, an effective revival also (if not above all) from the technical point of view and the iconography. Devil May Cry returns in a resounding form, and reiterates that it is here to stay.

Merlin'in Kazanı - Furkan Güler - Turkish - 87 / 100
Devil May Cry 5 is brings back old school hack 'n' slash mechanics to the new generation. First time in the series, Capcom emphasize the storytelling. The game is also shines at cinematics and graphics are gorgeus with butter smooth 60 FPS on both consoles.

Walmart Tips & Ideas - Paul Hunter - 8.6 / 10
Being the first, and likely only Devil May Cry game of this console generation, Capcom has really stepped up and delivered for their fans. What’s not to love? Devil May Cry 5 offers an excellent story with three very interesting protagonists, matched by superb gameplay delivering extreme style. Top it off with an awesome metal soundtrack, detailed graphics, and lots of modes to extend replay and you have the total package.

GameWatcher - Bogdan Robert - 8.5 / 10
A stylish, badass return to form

Game Informer - Joe Juba - 8.5 / 10
Chaining together impressive combos is as fun as ever, though hopping among three characters makes it hard to hone your expertise

GameZone - Cade Onder - 8.5 / 10
Even though it sometimes feels uncharacteristically by the numbers in some places or fails to have a noticeable amount of pizazz, Devil May Cry 5 is a hell of a good time. With plenty of wonderful character moments that'll make fans gush, a glorious frenzy of bloody action, and a healthy dose of great metal music to score it all, Capcom has triumphantly returned yet another beloved franchise to its former glory.

Jogazera - Renan Pessolano - Portuguese - 8.5 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is one of the best action games we've seen so far. It has a wide variety of combat mechanics to make each fight unique and memorable

Video Chums - A.J. Maciejewski - 8.2 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 features incredible action-intense gameplay as well as gorgeous visuals, engaging cutscenes, and phenomenal audio.

The Outerhaven Productions - Keith Mitchell - 4 / 5 stars
In the end, Devil May Cry 5 doesn't reinvent the wheel. Instead, it takes everything that fans of the series loved, dials it up to 11 and presents one of the best game in the series yet. Right up there with Devil May Cry 1 and 3 for me. Plenty of combat, the pacing is just right, and a nice amount of content to play through once you've reached the end. My only gripe is those blasted microtransactions, which I feel has no place in a game like this. A minor inconvenience in what I consider an enjoyable action game that I haven't been able to put down. It looks like Capcom has yet another GOTY contender on their hands. Devil May Cry 5 is every bit the game I was looking forward to and then some.

Tech Advisor - Lewis Painter - 4 / 5 stars
Devil May Cry 5 should satisfy your hack-and-slack itch in a big way. Huge, Hollywood-esque attacks are amped up by insane combos and devastating effects to create something truly satisfying, and the story has a lot to offer too.

PlayStation LifeStyle - Joseph Yaden - 8 / 10
There's almost too much to love about Devil May Cry 5, and I'm so glad Capcom is continuing to deliver games of this quality.

Screen Rant - Cody Gravelle - 4 / 5 stars
Devil May Cry 5 is an entertaining romp through the underworld made even more exciting by its three protagonists.

Gameblog - Jonathan Bushle - French - 8 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is a very good and engaging episode for the lovable franchise. All three playable characters feel great, and you really should try it if you're a fan of the beat them all genre.

GameMAG - Russian - 8 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is a great action game, created for fans of the original universe, which is almost all superior to the DMC4, but makes a few new mistakes. Crumpled story, with a focus on fan service, which jumps in time, ragged ending and featureless levels can be a disappointment. At the same time improved combat system, great variety of bosses and opponents, along with beautiful characters, great battle tracks and spectacular cutscenes will not disappoint you.

Hardcore Gamer - Adam Beck - 4 / 5
I may have been fairly critical throughout this review, but in the end Devil May Cry 5 is still one of the better character action games you'll play.

PC Invasion - Andrew Farrell - 4 / 5 stars
Devil May Cry 5 might not be the best entry in the series, but it's a good time with great gameplay, in spite of the middling story and bland art direction.

PCGamesN - Jacob Ridley - 8 / 10
Few games are as endearing in their madness as Devil May Cry 5. It's deeply old-school and made for fans first, but its new character will entertain newcomers and keep them coming back for more.Jacob Ridley

Gadgets 360 - Rishi Alwani - 8 / 10
All in all, Devil May Cry 5 is a solid entry in a franchise we'd like to see more of. It looks good and for most part, plays well. Although the new character V isn't as fun to play as Dante and Nero, there's more than enough to keep fans and newcomers interested.

Attack of the Fanboy - William Schwartz - 4 / 5 stars
Despite the questionable monetization, Devil May Cry V is an impressive game on the presentation front and a deep hack and slash with a ton of moves, combos, and weapons to master across three unique characters.

Gamers Heroes - Johnny Hurricane - 8 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 converted me from a skeptic to a believer. Old fans and new alike will find something to enjoy in this title.

Digital Chumps - Eric Layman - 8 / 10
Lavish pop-goth theatrics and profusely ridiculous violence compose the bible to which Devil May Cry 5 remains unabashedly faithful. Whether engaging with micro-intricacies buried deep inside its three protagonists or simply opting for maladroit participation, both approaches are furiously consumed with making the player look and feel extraordinary. Devil May Cry 5 is flexible, confident, and genuine Devil May Cry.

GameSpace - William Murphy - 8 / 10
Devil May Cry 5 is a solid game, and one I'd heartily recommend for anyone who once loved or has interest in the series. For those looking for something more than a beautiful brawler to sink a dozen hours into, you may want to wait for a sale.

BaziCenter - Mohamad Shokri - Persian - 8 / 10
In a generation that playing a good Hack 'n' Slash is like a dream, Devil May Cry 5 offers you a great, fun experience. DMC5 attracts you from the start and keeps the fun all way to the end thanks to its solid gameplay formula, and although some minor issues prevent it from reaching the series former glory, DMC5 is still the best choice for fans of HnS at the moment.

Game Revolution - Michael Leri - 4 / 5 stars
Its reluctance to properly evolve keep it from being the king of its genre, but its commitment to its stylish and responsive mechanics still makes it one of the best hack and slash games, crown or not.

PlayStation Universe - Garri Bagdasarov - 7.5 / 10
Devil May Cry V is the game fans have been waiting for, for better or for worse. It's not the best in the franchise but it's a welcome and stylish return to the original Devil May Cry saga.

GamesBeat - Mike Minotti - 70 / 100
Devil May Cry 5 won't be a total disappointment thanks to its stunning production values. Aside from the recent Resident Evil 2 remake, this is the best-looking game Capcom has ever made. Its adventure is a fun one if you don't take it too seriously (which shouldn't be too hard). As much as I can gripe about its flaws, it's hard not to grin when you're shoving a running motorcycle wheel into a demon's face. But this isn't an action classic.

Stevivor - Steve Wright - 7 / 10
Excellent combat, dated design

TrueGaming - خالد العيسى - Arabic - 7 / 10
The new gameplay mechanics and enjoyable boss fights can't compensate for the weak story and repetitive missions and a camera that ruins the fight occasionally, the potential is there but the bad decision made blow out away.

CGMagazine - Kenneth Shepard - 6 / 10
Devil May Cry 5's risk-averse approach grounds it as other games in the genre are reaching for the sky.

Eurogamer - Martin Robinson - Recommended
Capcom returns to its trusted formula for something that plays like a outrageously pretty PS2 game - and that's a very good thing.

Kotaku - Heather Alexandra - Unscored
Devil May Cry 5 is a firework. If you’re the one with the lighter, then setting the explosion off is a simple as flicking your finger.

VG247 - Kirk McKeand - Unscored
Though it’s not without its flaws, DMC 5 is a game where action is king.

The Jimquisition - Jim Sterling - Unscored
DMCV is everything fans want, and everything the rest of the world needs.

Rock, Paper, Shotgun - Matt Cox - Unscored
There is a demon, and I’m going to kill it. With style. I’ll shoot and slash and somersault, chaining together increasingly outlandish combos while listening to electro-metal where I only catch the odd word like ‘sword’ or ‘death’.

Thanks for the quotes and links lash.

Honestly what one could expect from a dmc game from what I've read, for both negative and positive.

Not sure what to think of V, from the few lines on several reviews some seem to like him and some don't, he honestly looks boring to me from videos but I guess I'll find out myself.

I'm kinda looking forward to trying V just because he looks so different playstyle wise.

Game looks and runs good at the start. Gonna lock it to 60fps though as otherwise it ranges from 120+ to just over 60 which could be jarring. Unless I find there's some overkill setting that lowering it will allow it to run more consistently near 144Hz without sacrificing the quality. There's a visual bug with the depth of field or another effect used similarly causing shit within it to be super pixelated instead. The RE engine is pretty impressive here, outside some aliasing which hasn't changed since RE7/RE2R despite the TAA+FXAA options, everything looks sharp and detailed and stylish and smooth despite the much more chaotic action of this game compared to RE. Other than that it's just good old DMC. If you liked 3/4 I'm sure you'll like this one. It's not as intuitive (or simple) as Bayonetta!

I feel like V would be easiest, especially if you have the upgrade for Nightmare that makes green orbs drop more frequently.

I never do Bloody Palace stuff but do you keep the red orbs from it? Is it the most efficient method to get red orbs to carry over into the main game stuff?

Though to be honest I’m more likely to return to DMC 4 right now to work on the alternate characters.
