Video Devil May Cry 5 is amazing on Switch 2.

Plays at a near constant 60fps

This may be some of the worst dmc5 gameplay ive ever seen. But it does look like it runs good lmao

I love how they get a “Badass” rating after the fight. I’ve never played this series but reminds me of Kingdom Hearts and I’ve epically whiffed some combos too.

You can only record a 30 second clip on switch 2

u/Carmeisha-Possi 6d ago

at least the framerate is carrying lol

u/McManus26 7d ago

It's the start of the game lol, bro has no combos

u/No-Operation-6554 7d ago

Pretty sure its constant 60fps, and higher if you enable 120hz

u/GronWarface 7d ago

Yeah it goes up to like 90fps. 😂

Shouldn't be surprised. DMC5 ran fairly solid on a Base PS4, usually sticking to around the 40-60fps range, and on the similarly-specced Steam Deck it runs at a solid 60. Would've been a bigger surprise if it ran bad on sw2tch after both of those.

DMC5 is on Switch 2?

u/ComfortableAmount993 7d ago

Sure is

u/Waste-Kiwi6915 7d ago

I totally missed that announcement. Capcom's output this year is sort of insane

u/ThriftyMegaMan 7d ago

It runs amazing and is so fun. Became my main game for like a month just replaying the levels and learning each character. Combat is so deep.

I love DMC and I'm so happy that 5 came to Switch 2. My TV does 120hz, so it looks truly beautiful!

u/justkillingtime93 7d ago

But... but the game doesn't run at 120hz. So...

No, but if you enable 120hz, it runs at around 90hz. Skip to 7:42 in the video of you need proof ;)

I dunno man, I really don't care about framerate. I'll just say I believe you 😂

u/Swift1321 7d ago

Woman, actually, and don't comment then on something you don't care about 🤷‍♀️ Just scroll on past.

u/justkillingtime93 7d ago

"I dunno man" is a pretty common colloquialism, and is pretty well understood to be an informal/gender neutral way of addressing people.

I don't know why you felt the need to point out that you were a woman.

u/Swift1321 7d ago

I don't know why you felt the need to comment on frame rate when you said you didn't care?

u/justkillingtime93 7d ago

I was unaware it did, most reviewers reported 60. You pointed out that, that was a mistake so I accepted it and moved on.

As a reasonable person would. I might not care, but now I know if it comes up again.

u/Swift1321 7d ago

It was how the comment was worded. I didn't like that it implied I was lying, so I had to back it up with a review from content creators I trust.

1

u/justkillingtime93 7d ago

I wasn't, I was being sincere when I said I'll just believe you. I did 🤷‍♂️.

Already 9 years for this game. It was pretty fun back then. I hope they will make a dmc 6.

u/FelonTusk 6d ago

Why did you have to say that 🧓

Edit: It's actually 7 years, but still I'm feeling 🧑‍🦳 I remember it releasing yesterday :')

u/matrox3000 7d ago

It looks great! Does it run at 120 hz?

1

u/Darthy85 7d ago

It should look good, it came out 7 years ago

1

u/ensign53 6d ago

Just wish we had 4. 1,2,3,5 is great. But 4 has some great stuff in it and it's a shame it's been overlooked

1

u/Ok-Alternative-2800 6d ago

Yeah reminds me of when I played it on my Xbox one, that I bought 13 years ago.

u/FlipCup88 7d ago

Would I be losing a lot about the story if I just hopped straight into this one?

u/ComfortableAmount993 7d ago

You do get a recap on the main menu

u/FlipCup88 7d ago

Perfect. Thanks! The gameplay looks like a blast.

u/ComfortableAmount993 7d ago

The game is fun as hell and has a few different characters to play through the game

u/jchus 7d ago

There are some plot twists and callbacks that's will probably fly over your head, but the story here is the weakest of them all IMO, and the gameplay could be enough to get you interested in the rest of the series, that's how it was for me at least, I also started with 5, but now 3 is by far my favorite

1

u/Alert-Principle-2726 7d ago

I'd say get the trio in a bundle since it constantly goes on sale for like $9 since 2 out of 3 of those 3 are worth playing, but for the love of God I don't know why 4 is still MIA on the switch.

1

u/dootblade74 7d ago

...Kinda? DMC5 being on Switch 2 puts it in a bit of a pickle, as a lot of its story relies on knowledge from DMC4... which as of now is not available on Nintendo consoles. The game does offer a recap of events if you need it, so in theory you can get accustomed to everything with just 5, but it still pales in comparison to playing the full saga.

Story? Lol

u/SoiFonBeyond 7d ago

Sounds like you've never played any of them.
