Just like Nero, you have a new set of skills to learn and upgrades you can buy for your attacks. It wasn’t very satisfying and the combat felt very weak compared to our other two protagonists. As you’re not attacking, the animals are, I found myself just standing back and spamming the button, only using my cane for the deathblow. V was actually my least favourite character in Devil May Cry 5. V can also summon a giant rock-creature to rise up and attack the enemies, but I didn’t think it was that effective. Basically, the eagle shoots and the panther bites, so it’s your standard projectile and melee attacks, only you’re not the one physically attacking as you press the button and they attack – like Pokemon. Other than that, he can call forth support from two of his tattoos, a panther-like creature and a giant eagle. This is V’s only physical attack – he smacks things to death with his walking stick! As I mentioned before, instead of just sitting on the bench, V will get his hands dirty and help you fight off the demons, even if he hobbles around with a walking stick. V is the gothic newbie to the franchise, having appeared in nothing at all before Devil May Cry 5. Well, until things get a little too frantic and he retreats from battle. V isn’t just going to sit back and watch either, as a worthy companion, he’ll use the magical powers he beholds to aid our hero as much as possible. Dante, along with Trish and Lady, has been hired by a new mysterious ally, V, in hopes of taking on this new threat and putting an end to it before the world is devoured. We’ve already been through Devil May Cry I – IV yet a new, and more sinister, evil has arisen from out of nowhere. The overall story, when placed in order, is set many years after the demons first appeared on the Earth. So, if you get a cutscene which has no exposition about what’s going on, or why, then it’ll most likely come back to it later on with more info. Also, the game is like ‘Beyond Two Souls’, it seems to play out of order, which is handily shown by a timeline that slots each mission into its chronological order whilst the mission is loading. ![]() ![]() The story of Devil May Cry 5 is full of surprises, twists, comedy, and rather conveniently placed lens flares over naked bodies, so I won’t go into the details too much as I don’t want to ruin any of the “ohhh” moments you’ll have. It appears the sun really does shine out of her arse…
