A month after the Qliphoth broke ground, Nero has lost an arm, Dante has lost a fight, and V has turned up with a cane and three demons on a leash.

Three completely different fighters

Nero with swappable mechanical arms, each one a new toy. Dante with four styles and four weapon sets live-switched mid-combo. V, who does not attack at all and commands summons instead.

The rank meter

D through to SSS, and it only climbs if you keep varying what you do. The game is built to be replayed on harder difficulties chasing a better letter.

It looks extraordinary

The RE Engine with photogrammetry for the faces. Six years on, it is still one of the best-looking action games available.

Runs on modest hardware

Locked sixty is achievable on very ordinary machines, and it scales up to whatever you have.
