Critic Reviews for Devil May Cry 5: Devil Hunter Edition
Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition is another great Capcom port for the Switch 2, maintaining that crucial 60fps gameplay without completely tanking the visual presentation. There are a few blemishes, mind you, and the absence of an entire mode means this isn't the definitive release of the game.If you've never experienced DMC5 before, however, you're in for a treat. This is one of the best action games out there, and the finest DMC entry so far.
Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition brings the demon-slaying action of the franchise's peak to the Nintendo Switch 2.
That said, it's clear the party can never be complete. Capcom, it's a shame you didn't include absolutely all the content , and it's a real slap in the face that you still haven't committed to "real" physical cartridges and are releasing it as a Keycard, when it would fit perfectly on a 32GB card, and it's arriving two months later...

The Switch 2 is never going to be as powerful as a PS5 or XBOX Series, but games like DMC 5 show it doesn’t need to be. Aside from a slight… crispiness to the character models hair, similar to other RE Engine titles I’ve played on Switch 2, this game looks great.
Devil May Cry 5: Devil Hunter Edition is an incredible technical achievement. A masterclass in action, the landmark title works perfectly on the Switch 2, making this an essential purchase for those who have missed the adventure.
Just as with the original release of Devil May Cry 5, this Devil Hunter Edition for Switch 2 arrives during a golden age for Capcom, which is enjoying the success of RE Requiem and Pragmata while awaiting the new Onimusha. The overall quality of this edition is excellent, and in terms of content, there's nothing to complain about despite the absence of some features found in the previously released Special Edition. It's also a shame about a few technical glitches, though they don't significantly detract from the overall quality of the experience.

Devil May Cry 5: Devil Hunter Edition may not be a definitive port of the game, but few players would bother complaining about what's missing. This is still a fast and fluid action title with plenty of content and a campaign that never feels like it's dragging along. Most importantly, this is a port that looks just as good as its more powerful console brethren without any performance drops. Capcom has already proven in the Switch 2's first year that it can be trusted to bring out solid ports of its games with minimal compromise, and DMC5 keeps that streak going.
