When the action gets really frantic things seem to be ok, but when an abundance of particle effects were on the screen, occasionally I’d get dips into the 20s. While this game does look gorgeous at 4K/30 with all of the bells and whistles enabled, I did run into the occasional framerate hits. This is disappointing as other titles are going all in on proper reflections, banking on better immersion for a little bit of work. I was rather disappointed that mirrors didn’t see an update, reflecting a smeared vague approximation instead of a crisp reflection. Our capture below is 4K/30 for reference. Whatever your preference, there’s a mode for you. Disabling ray tracing allows you to push up to 4K and 120fps. More specifically, you have the option of 4K at 30fps with ray tracing enabled, or you can pop down to 1080p at 60fps. More than just shiny, this engine upgrade also brings support for up to 120fps (provided you have the hardware), as well as 4K resolutions. These improvements come courtesy of an improved RE Engine spruced up for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Rain on the streets streak and distort with reflected neon, and particle effects bring the whole scene to life. The first and most noticeable feature update has to be the ray tracing that seems to populate nearly every surface of the game with beautiful reflections. It’s a laundry list of fan service, delivering the ultimate version of this high speed hack and slash. Like we saw with Devil May Cry 4 SE, this installment gives us a wealth of fresh content, new modes, additional difficulty levels, and retouched audio and video.
This isn’t the first time Capcom has returned to the franchise with a sort of “Director’s Cut” version of a Devil May Cry title.
Instead, I’m going to talk about the improvements you can expect to see in Capcom’s Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition. Editor Travis Northup gave us a fantastic review that I couldn’t possibly top, covering every aspect of Devil May Cry 5 on Xbox One X, so I’m not going to rehash what he’s already covered so well.
