It is finally time for Nintendo Switch owners to experience one of the dumbest (in a good way) games of all time on-the-go, with a few additions to try to make up for the long wait. Other games inspired by Devil May Cry 3 soon followed, such as God of War, Metal Gear Rising, Bayonetta, No More Heroes, and most importantly, Devil May Cry 5, the crown jewel of the series, and the pinnacle of the genre as a whole.ĭevil May Cry 3 had never been released on a Nintendo platform up until a few days ago. It had to be fast-paced, challenging, and above all, extremely over-the-top. It also set the standard for how a hack n’ slash should behave. In were the “so absolutely idiotic they’re brilliant” cutscenes that immortalized Dante (and later on, Nero as well) as the poster child for the entire genre. Gone were the “so bad they’re actually bad” plot-lines trying to make the franchise’s story serious. When Devil May Cry 3 was first released, it changed the entire hack n’ slash landscape.
