We wish DMC3: SE is the standard of Capcom's releases on Nintendo Switch going forward. This is the best version of this beloved action game and it feels great on the go.

The latest port of the highly acclaimed Devil May Cry 3, not only succeeds in bringing the fan-favorite title to the Nintendo Switch, but also manages to improve it. The already solid combat has only improved with the addition of the Free Style mode, and the new co-op mode for Bloody Palace will let you share the fun with a friend. Despite the stationary camera and re-used bosses, this game pleases more than it punishes. Indeed, whether you are drawn to this latest iteration of DMC3 out of a sense of nostalgia or a love for its excellent combat, you will surely enjoy this greatly re-playable game

It's hard to believe that a 3D action game as supremely enjoyable as Devil May Cry 3 released 15 years ago. It's a modern masterpiece that genre fans need to play even if they already have dozens of times before.

Devil May Cry 3 is a must-play if you’re already a fan of Capcom’s combo-based action series or if you’re new to the genre. The handheld and Joy-Con controls may not be ideal for prolonged periods of play or players with difficulty mashing buttons, but you’ll still be treated to one of the best and most stylish action games currently available on the Switch.

Without it, we would not see the success stories of many major modern hack and slasher’s such as Bayonetta, Dynasty Warriors, Darksiders, Castlevania, No More Heroes, God of War, Heavenly Sword and many others. Devil May Cry 3 is still the staple of the hack and slash genre, and will remain one of the greatest action games of all time.

Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition is a decent remaster for the Nintendo Switch, with a big addition that changes the gameplay dramatically. If you never experienced Dante's Awakening in the past, this is the way to do it.
