Ali Haider February 24, 2019

Devil May Cry 5 is a stylish action game set to launch on March 8th. The reviews for the game will arrive before its launch so fans can look forward to reading what the critics have to say about it.

Devil May Cry 5 will see the return of fan-favorite Dante and introduces a new character, V. Nero is the main lead character but there will be actually three playable characters: Nero, Dante, and the newcomer V.

Devil May Cry 5 uses the same engine as Resident Evil 2 Remake. It is the first brand new Devil May Cry game after Capcom tried to reboot the series with Ninja Theory. That didn’t seem to have done that well with the fans leading Capcom back to the drawing board and thus beginning development on Devil May Cry 5.

When Will Devil May Cry 5 Reviews Arrive?

Metacritic has shared the review embargo date for Devil May Cry 5. The embargo timing is set for March 6th at 8 AM Pacific time. This makes it close to two days before the official release date. For comparison, Resident Evil 2 Remake reviews were three days early and Kingdom Hearts 3 had an embargo date almost five days before launch.

Metacritic also shared how the games were reviewed by the critics. The best-rated game in the series is Devil May Cry 1, which has an average score of 94. It is followed by Devil May Cry 3 and 4, both of which are tied at 84. The worst rated game is Devil May Cry 2 at 68.

If you are excited for Devil May Cry 5, you can get your hands on it when it launches on March 8th for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
