The verdict
Excellent, deep, stylish combat with five playable characters, but the second half recycles levels and bosses and the PC port often won't launch without fixes. Skip it if you want a polished, varied campaign.
Great for
Combo-focused action fans who enjoy DMC combat depth and replaying with several characters
Main risk
Game may crash or not launch without hex-edit fixes, and half the campaign is backtracking
What players love
Extra playable characters and replay value
