The 3 Musketeers Of Devil Hunting

Devil May Cry 5

- Kenneth Ang

Devil May Cry has been one of Capcom’s most acclaimed franchises since the first game released in 2001, and it doesn’t look like this train is stopping anytime soon.

But, before we jump into the action, it’s good to have an idea of who you’ll be playing. Devil May Cry 5 has three Devil Hunters, each with diff erent fighting styles.

V, is your typical “broody and mysterious” kind of guy. Nero is the first Devil Hunter you meet and the main protagonist of DMC5, and then there’s Dante. Need I say more? He’s the OG Devil Hunter and all-around stylish badass.

In typical DMC-style, the world is already on the brink of destruction when you boot up the game. Demonic forces have launched a massive assault on Red Grave City. You’re put in Nero’s shoes, making your way up a demonic tree called the Qliphoth to join Dante in his fight against the invading demon king, Urizen. Unfortunately, all Nero finds when he gets there are his allies utterly decimated.

Fast forward a month later, the Qliphoth has thoroughly infested Red Grave, turning all the civilians into lifeless black husks. Acting on V’s instructions, the Devil May Cry agency takes on the task of dealing with the overgrown demonic houseplant and thwarting the mastermind behind it.
