Those inclusions are exclusive to the Switch port, by the way. There is also the inclusion of local co-op if you decide to tackle the Bloody Palace, the game’s survival mode. This makes what is already pure freaking mayhem even more chaotic and entertaining. One neat addition is the possibility of changing your main attack style on the fly if you decide to play the game on Free Style mode. Thanks to a (near) constant framerate, the Switch version of Devil May Cry 3 is still as fast-paced as it needs to be. The more stylish you end up being, the more points you’ll earn, and the more you’ll be able to spend on even more moves and weapons in order to maintain this vicious but addictive murder cycle.
Kill everything in sight by creating combos, switching between weapons and never getting hit by an enemy. You have a sword, a pair of guns, the ability to lock on enemies, a special move, and an ego the size of an obese walrus.
The first thing you need to know about Devil May Cry 3‘s gameplay, and the franchise as a whole for that matter, is that it’s all about being fast and stylish. The question is, how does a game from more than fifteen years ago, from a generation in which 3D movement and spatial awareness hadn’t been properly figured out yet, hold up to today’s standards? Well, let’s find out. It is finally time for Nintendo Switch owners to experience one of the dumbest (in a good way) games of all time on-the-go, with a few additions to try to make up for the long wait. Other games inspired by Devil May Cry 3 soon followed, such as God of War, Metal Gear Rising, Bayonetta, No More Heroes, and most importantly, Devil May Cry 5, the crown jewel of the series, and the pinnacle of the genre as a whole.ĭevil May Cry 3 had never been released on a Nintendo platform up until a few days ago. It had to be fast-paced, challenging, and above all, extremely over-the-top. It also set the standard for how a hack n’ slash should behave. In were the “so absolutely idiotic they’re brilliant” cutscenes that immortalized Dante (and later on, Nero as well) as the poster child for the entire genre. Gone were the “so bad they’re actually bad” plot-lines trying to make the franchise’s story serious. When Devil May Cry 3 was first released, it changed the entire hack n’ slash landscape.
