Devil May Cry is back! But in a platform you don’t expect… or like

Devil May Cry is a beloved franchise among action game fans. Since its first appearance on PlayStation 2, it has served as a benchmark for nearly all action and hack ‘n’ slash games. Led by the iconic Dante, this Capcom saga has evolved over the years, consistently remaining at the forefront as one of the most powerful franchises in the action game genre. That’s why the announcement of a new mobile installment, Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat, is so promising.

Originally released in China on June 11, 2011, by Yunchang Games under strict supervision from Capcom, Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat delivers everything we would expect from a game in the franchise. It features weapon switching, puzzles, and character design that fans are familiar with, along with the need to play skillfully and stylishly to maximize our combo meter. Taking inspiration from Devil May Cry 3: Dante’s Awakening, it incorporates stages from Devil May Cry 4 and DmC: Devil May Cry, enemies like Fantom and Beowulf from Devil May Cry and Devil May Cry 3 respectively, and even includes nods to the latest installment in the series, Devil May Cry 5.

The gameplay in Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat closely resembles the main series but has been adapted to the limited screen space of mobile devices. This means that while we still have a style rank system that rewards us for utilizing different combos, weapons, dodges, and taunts to increase it, there are also some limitations not found in the original games. Each character can only have up to four weapons, there is no automatic mode, and Dante only has two styles: Trickster and Royalguard.

All of this is not a problem because if there’s one thing that Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat does well, it’s overcoming those limitations while still capturing the essence of Devil May Cry. The other two styles of Dante are integrated into his move set through specific inputs. There are four playable characters to choose from: Dante, Lady, Vergil, and Nero. And although there are initially only two difficulty modes, they only apply to the enemies, as the campaign mode has its own gameplay mode that unlocks upon completion: the Memory Corridor. Here, we unlock the two highest difficulty modes: Son of Sparda and Dante Must Die, two classic difficulty modes that couldn’t be missed in a Devil May Cry game.

All of this makes Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat a very interesting game with great potential. Having already been successful in China, it’s now a matter of spreading the word about this game destined to succeed under the name of the action king that is Devil May Cry.
