Ninja Theory's reboot, with a reimagined Dante switching between angel and demon weapons in a Limbo that reshapes itself around him. As a standalone action game the combat is fluid and the levels are the most visually inventive in the series. It is also mechanically simpler than DMC3 or 5, the writing tries hard to be edgy, and the constant camera shake genuinely causes motion sickness for some.

✓ Nearly identical: deep RPG systems, action RPG combat and puzzle design.

≠ Missing: real-time strategy.

Open-world traversal built around electricity: you climb, grind rails and fight in the same continuous motion, and it rarely asks you to stop moving. Combat stays readable even when the screen fills up. The karma system is the weak part — choices are signposted as obviously good or evil, so the moral framing lands flatter than the moment-to-moment play.

The most content of any entry, with raids, settlement building and a genuinely long saga across England. Combat is heavier and more brutal than the previous games. Length is the problem — well over a hundred hours, with arcs that repeat their structure region by region, and it asks for far more time than its ideas sustain.
