The very first Devil May Cry on Switch: a foundational stylish-action classic, sharp and gothic, that defined the genre. The port holds up on the go, though its age shows in fixed cameras and some dated level design.

Memorable bosses

A pioneer of stylish character-action, the original Devil May Cry codified surgically nervous combat: alternating sword and guns while sustaining style without taking a hit. The clashes with major demons and giant marionettes demand aggression and reading, laying the groundwork for a genre where dodging, juggling and finishing with flair makes all the difference.
