More about Devil May Cry 5

Steam's global achievement data puts 20 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. The median game this site can measure sits at 18. 16 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written February 2026 to October 2026. That is fewer refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,368 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 1,996 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 79 percent of the 4,708 reviews written there were positive, against 96 percent overall, and those are 4 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (time-limited); the score docks it lightly for that.

Finishing takes 11.1 hours; clearing it takes 79, which is 7.1 times the campaign.

172,309 people have reviewed it, which is a big enough crowd to settle the number.

Valve rates it Steam Deck Verified, and at 11.1 hours it is short enough to finish on one.

What players say

So it's a game about Vergil hiring Vergil's brother and Vergil's son to defeat Vergil so he can become Vergil again featuring Vergil. I am motivated and I'm Vergiling it. Highly recommended if you want the full power of motivated Vergil!

Going back to DMC 5 in 2026 honestly reminded me why I love this series so much. The combat is still ridiculously fun, and I can spend hours just messing around with combos, trying different moves and switching between the characters. It just feels so good to play. The whole game has such a great vibe too. The music, the style, the characters and all the over the top moments just scream Devil May Cry. Even after all...
