The verdict
A fast, stylish hack-and-slash with excellent combat, music and art, held back by cringe writing and a Dante and Vergil that don't feel like DMC. Skip it if you're a purist.
Great for
Action fans who want fluid combos and a great soundtrack and can treat it as a standalone game
Main risk
Edgy, cringe story and characters plus color-coded enemies that interrupt combos
What players love
