The style system encourages you to essentially rack up a high hit count without taking damage, further adding complexity and fun to the combat. Enemies have strengths and weaknesses you’ll need to learn to abuse. Once you beat down your expectations about how an action game should play, Devil May Cry’s design shines through. What makes Devil May Cry’s combat so special is that it’s unique. But none of that compares to any modern action game. There is depth in the form of a few different types of weapons and you can buy more combos to expand your arsenal. Instead it plays more tactically, requiring you to lock on to perform many actions and to keep Dante focused on a specific target. There are no free-flowing combo mechanics here. Looking forward, it’s easy to see how Devil May Cry combat eventually became the modern action staple in Bayonetta, but by any modern standards Devil May Cry is utterly archaic. It’s 2018 and we’ve come a long way to get to where we are today with games like Bayonetta (Xbox 360), which coincidentally shares the same game director in Hideki Kamiya.

This collection is close to identical to the PS2 version, just ever so slightly prettier. You won’t find touched up visuals beyond the resolution change, newly rendered cutscenes or gameplay fixes here. For those who didn’t play it a couple years ago, that means you’re getting each of these games lovingly changed to an HD aspect ratio and that’s about it. I can’t promise there’s not some minor change somewhere, but for all intents and purposes this collection is indistinguishable from the last generation version. In fact, you’re quite literally getting the exact same thing. If you played the first Devil May Cry HD Collection on Xbox 360, then you’ll know what you’re getting. This collection neatly fits into that third option. Or it could be a slightly disappointing, no-frills port. It could be a bounty of classic titles brought up to modern standards like Rare Replay.
