if the retail release had that soundtrack and mustaches all around i probably would've actually enjoyed the time i spent with it
Also available on Xbone. Launches March 17. MSRP of $39.99 / €39.99.60 fps and 1080p resolution — It looks and feels super smooth to play.
Uprezzed Graphics — Including textures, characters, and cinematics.
Big Bundle of Content — The game includes DmC: Devil May Cry, plus all released DLC: Vergil’s Downfall campaign, 3 Dante skins, 3 Dante weapon skins, and the item finder.
New Skins — 2 new character skins. Devil May Cry 1 Dante and Classic Vergil.
Turbo Mode — Turbo Mode returns to the Devil May Cry series, with the game running 20% faster in this mode.
Hardcore Mode — Hardcore mode retains the experience of DmC, but with a throwback to the classic Devil May Cry games in terms of balance. In this mode, which can be toggled on all difficulty levels, the style system has been rebalanced to make ranking up much harder and ranks deteriorate much quicker. In addition, Devil Trigger doesn’t launch enemies into the air, parrying takes more skill, and all enemies hand out more damage.
Manual Target Lock — We’ve seen more requests for this than any other feature! The manual target lock works as closely to the classic Devil May Cry lock on as possible and has fully configurable controls.
Vergil Bloody Palace — Only second to Manual Target Lock in terms of the number of fan requests! This is a new Bloody Palace mode featuring 60 levels and Vergil as the playable character.
Must Style Mode — This is a hardcore modifier on an epic scale that can be played over any difficulty level. Players must be at an S rank or higher to deal any damage to enemies.
Gods Must Die Difficulty Mode — This is DmC Definitive Edition’s hardest difficulty mode. It takes DmC’s ridiculously hard Dante Must Die mode and adds a touch more punishment: All enemies spawn with Devil Trigger active and no items or health drops can be used.
Rebalanced and Retuned — We’ve studied fan feedback and made a whole host of tweaks and balance changes. The style system has been rebalanced, as have bosses. Exploits have been fixed in combat and some of Dante’s moves rebalanced, such as the Demon Evade. Gameplay tweaks have been made following hardcore player testing; frames have been removed from Kablooey shots, Parry/Evade windows adjusted, and collectibles, keys and doors redistributed.
Integration of Popular Community Mods — DmC Definitive Edition includes community mods such as an optional timer disable for Bloody Palace Mode, a triple dash for Angel Evade, and the ability to hit red and blue enemies with any weapon.
New Cutscene — an added cinematic scene that never made it into the original.
Also, Devil May Cry® 4 Special Edition will be available for PlayStation®4 and Xbox One in Summer 2015.
DmC now with all the features we should've shipped with the original game including core gameplay mechanics like, lock on!
Well better late than never I guess.
And you get to pay for it again too!
Spoiler: show
All the things they said they didn't need in the game too.
I love that they have to declare 1080/60 on the box.
I might actually try the game now.
Sounds like this fixes up a lot of the stuff that made me not want to try it out in the first place. I don't really care too much about the mischaracterization of Dante as long as the game plays well.
It's a terrible DMC game in terms of story/characters but overall it's not a bad action game (definitely better than I thought it would be). Just really easy for the most part and cheap for the rest, but it sounds like they fixed all of that so it should be good this time around for game play.
Devil May Dubstep.
That said I enjoyed it.
Also that trailer for DMC4....they gonna make Vergil playable somehow?
Hype as FUCK. I've actually waited on playing DMC4 till trophies came along. The entire trailer had me raving
I never actually played DMC4 other than a demo on PC, so definitely interested in that. I don't think I care about the new DmC version.
Yeah, I didn't have a PS3 at the time and no gamepad on PC so after I tried the demo with keyboard I said 'forget that'. Could've gone back when I got a PS3 or gamepads but honestly forgot about the game.
It wasn't a good Devil May Cry game, but simply from the action gameplay standpoint it was fucking fantastic.
DmC was easily one of my favorite plats. Its excellent soundtrack quickly made me a fan of Combichrist and Noisia. If you skipped out on DmC the first time $40 is going to be a steal.
At least they're not charging $60 (or $70 in Canada....) for the "Definitive" re-release like most other companies that have done it already.
DMC4SE I'm game for if it comes to PC also. The original version was one of the earlier PS3 games I owned and completed, and had pretty fond memories of it.
