This includes all of the skins for characters and weapons, along with the six mission campaign, Vergil’s Downfall. This wouldn’t be the “Definitive Edition” without packing in all of the downloadable content. On the flip side, the lock-on feature adds a stylish health bar when targeting a foe, giving you a better understanding just how much damage has been inflicted, and how much more is required. This is a mixed bag because, while it ensures for greater accuracy with the camera, it’s not advised in hectic situations as it can be troublesome to switch between targets.

In addition, a lock-on feature has been added to the R1 button, something that has been greatly desired by the community.

Considering Hardcore Mode drains the style meter much faster than regular, combing these two will give the most dedicated of fans a run for their money. As an added bonus, this selection was made to test players by negating damage against enemies unless the style meter is at an S ranking. If Hardcore Mode isn’t difficult enough for you, “Must Style Mode” will certain be up your alley. While DmC already ran at an excellent pace, the extra boosts makes things much quicker and flows perfectly with how combat is structured. Turbo mode on the other hand just makes combat 20% faster and is an absolute must for long running fans. Hardcore Mode brings back old school gameplay balances, giving enemies a stronger punch, making it more difficult to rack up the style meter and an altered Devil Trigger ability. The difference this time around is that there are two additional combat variations added to spice things up a bit: Hardcore Mode and Turbo Mode. There’s nothing like bringing a group of enemies together with the Aquila and then performing a devastating ground pound to send them flying in all directions. The controls makes it easy for anyone to pick up and play, switching between the angel and demon weapons on the fly. Along with the iconic set, Dante also collects two additional demon, angel and projectile weapons on his journey to find out who he is and stop the tyrannical Mundus. The gameplay mechanics remain mostly untouched as Dante retains his trusty Rebellion sword and Ebony & Ivory handguns.

The result moves DmC Devil May Cry one step forward and two steps back. It’s not just a copy and paste job, though, as Ninja Theory’s baby has received a number of modifications and rebalances that hopefully make it an even greater experience. Capcom has thankfully decided to go down the road of the latter, re-releasing one of the best games in the last few years on the current generation platforms. While the sales are through the roof, the game selection has seen an unfortunate number of broken releases and remasters. With over a year since the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One launched, we’re still lacking a game that defines this console generation.
