Chains that let you pull yourself towards enemies, or pull them towards you, result in some explosive combos that see Dante zipping elegantly between enemies, dealing out brutal punishment between each throw of a chain. Combine the two, and you can knock out enemies with the swifter, lighter weapon before neatly finishing them off with a deadly demonic blow.ДЄs you gain more-advanced weapons and abilities, the combos that are open to you become more complex. Heavier, demonic weapons like the Arbiter axe focus on all-out strength, pummelling demons into the ground with a hefty brute force, albeit at the expense of attack speed. For instance, lighter, angelic weapons like the Osiris scythe are geared towards juggling enemies in the air and dealing spinning swipes that take out large groups all at once. The combat is done in a way that cleverly plays to the strengths of each weapon, and that of your opponents' weapons.

What opens up before you is a vast set of moves that can be smoothly chained together for some technically impressive and oh-so-gorgeous-looking combos. Still, once the game finally lets you loose with a bigger arsenal, the combat takes a rewarding turn. It's not long before you reach the limits of what you can do with a single weapon, though, which makes the time it takes to gather new ones a tad grating. With just a few taps it's easy to perform simple combos that cut a sharp path through enemies and launch them into the air where you can deal more damage before they explode into a wonderfully satisfying mess of gory blobs. Initially that weaponry takes the form of Rebellion, a sword with a medium speed and attack range that serves as the bedrock for combos. Dante is a man with some impressive physical skills that are augmented by an equally impressive range of deadly weaponry. It helps, of course, that the action is exciting too. Such is the variety in your adventure that it does an admirable job of glossing over the linear nature of the story.

One moment you're escaping a blood-red city that's folding and crumbling around you, and the next you're infiltrating the offices of a famed TV network where the earthly world and that of Limbo have collided in an explosion of vicious demons and ghastly black ooze that drips from every wall. Gone is the tedious backtracking and repetition of Devil May Cry 4, replaced with an adventure that-for the most part-propels you forward at a breakneck pace. It helps that they're backed by a terrific voice cast-especially the truly frightening villain Mundis-that delivers even the maddest of dialogue with the utmost sincerity.ДmC's greater focus on storytelling comes at expense of some freedom, but the game is no worse off for it. There are real moments of drama and excitement that are coupled with some well-realised characters that walk a fine line between good and evil. There's no denying that there's still a drop of Devil May Cry lunacy to it all, particularly in Dante's cheesy quips, but underneath that over-the-top exterior lies heart. What follows is a tale of evil, world domination, and love that weaves in touches of conspiracy theory and religious dogma to great effect.
