Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition News
News Devil May Cry 5 Surpasses 6 Million Units Sold
Smokin' Sexy Sales
Capcom has announced Devil May Cry 5, the latest entry in its popular series, has reached a new sales milestone. The excellent action game has now sold more than six million units, which is above and beyond any other entry in the franchise. This means the game has sold roughly a million copies in six months.

News Devil May Cry 5 Slashes Through 5 Million Sales
Definitely not Dismal
It's official: Devil May Cry 5 has been yet another modern blockbuster for Capcom. The excellent action title, which first launched for PlayStation 4 back in March 2019, has now topped 5 million sales worldwide. We assume that this figure includes sales of Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition, which released for PS5 roughly 20...
News Devil May Cry Series Celebrates 20th Anniversary
Hell yeah
Capcom's Devil May Cry series is 20 years old today (the 23rd August), with the original Devil May Cry launching for PlayStation 2 all the way back in 2001. In that time, the property has spawned five main entries (six if you count the divisive DmC: Devil May Cry) and protagonist Dante has become one of the most iconic characters in...
News Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition PS5 Patch Fixes 120Hz Issue
Round two
Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition is one of the few games on PS5 that supports up to 120 frames-per-second, but the action title launched with a rather annoying issue. In short, if you played Special Edition on a display that has 120Hz functionality, the game would lock the console to that refresh rate, regardless of your preferred...
News Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition Launch Trailer Is Maximum Cheese, Maximum Hype
The storm that is approaching
Look, Vergil might be one of the biggest posers in gaming, but damn does he look fun to play in Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition. With the game launching this week on PS5, Capcom's wheeled out the title's launch trailer — and it's everything you'd expect. The music. The combos. Vergil's smug grin. It also throws in...
Hands On Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition on PS5 Is a Stylish Upgrade
S rank
Devil May Cry 5 is a frontrunner in the race for PlayStation 4’s flashiest game, so it’s no surprise that Capcom’s turning up the style for its PlayStation 5 upgrade. Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition – unlike so many next-gen re-releases – is a premium remaster, so there’s no free PS4 to PS5 path here. Fortunately, the Japanese...
News Devil May Cry 5's Vergil DLC Dated for December on PS4
Price also revealed
Alongside the announcement of Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition, Capcom revealed that Vergil will be joining the fray. The souped-up PlayStation 5 version will include the extra character, as well as a raft of performance options, when it launches alongside the console in November. Dante's brother is also coming to the PS4 version...

1080p, 60fps, with ray tracing too
Capcom has shed more light on the performance options that Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition will boast on PS5. As previously reported, you can have the game focus on frame rate or resolution, but Capcom has clarified that ray tracing also plays a major role in how the title runs. The bottom line is that Special...
News Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition Rocks a Physical Version on 1st December
Devil in the detail
As promised by Capcom, Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition will be getting a physical release, although it'll launch a little later than its digital counterpart.

News Devil May Cry 5 Takes Four Seconds to Load on PS5, 22 Seconds on PS4
Time saver
We know that the PlayStation 5 is going to take less time to load than the PlayStation 4, but we’re slowly beginning to get a grasp on how much faster Sony’s next-gen system will be. ResetEra spotted this video from a Japanese hands-on with Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition, and it shows the game booting into a mission from relatively...
