Devil May Cry 5 review — a lot of style, a little less substance

I would have thought that I’d love any game that has me fighting demons with a motorcycle. I enjoyed Devil May Cry 5, which comes out for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on March 8 (I played on an Xbox One X). But I didn’t love it.

Devil May Cry 5 is an action game featuring over-the-top combat. Well, a lot about the game is over-the-top. Most aspects of Devil May Cry 5 — including humor and music — come at you with the force of a battleship broadside. It will bombard you.
