Welcome back to Spawn Point, where we take something wonderful from the world of gaming and explain what it is, why it’s worth your time and how to get involved. This time, we look at “Spectacle Fighters”, or “Character Action Games” if you like your genre names vague and uselessly ambiguous.

What’s so spectacular about these fighters, then? It’s Spectacle Fighters, a genre of mostly third-person action games that focuses on the visual spectacle of combat above all else. These are games designed to make you both feel and look like a badass through a huge range of freedom in combat options. They also tend to rate your performance with a score, rank or grade of some kind, usually from D through to S.

Devil May Cry 5 features demon hunters old and new in a new trailerhttps://www.rockpapershotgun.com/devil-may-cry-5-tgs-gameplay-trailerDominic TarasonThu, 20 Sep 2018 20:44:04 +0000https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/devil-may-cry-5-tgs-gameplay-trailerTokyo Game Show 2018Devil May Cry 5CapcomDevil May CryAction Adventure

The gang's all here, minus Dante's trouble-making brother Vergil. Capcom had a fresh trailer for their upcoming demon-blatting hack n' slasher Devil May Cry 5 for the Tokyo Game Show, and this one's a bit more heavy on the in-game action. While DMC4's returning hero Nero is set to play the lead role again, original devil hunter Dante is back with his sidekicks in tow. Check out their new moves in the trailer below, plus a teasing first peek at the new, third playable character - the mysterious V.

Devil May Cry 5 embraces its own campness and revs up to launch in Marchhttps://www.rockpapershotgun.com/devil-may-cry-5-gamescom-trailerDominic TarasonTue, 21 Aug 2018 19:55:29 +0000https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/devil-may-cry-5-gamescom-trailerDevil May Cry 5CapcomDevil May CryGamescom 2018Action Adventure

It's so very good that Devil May Cry 5 is aware of just how daft it is. Unveiled to great surprise at E3 back in June, Capcom have been demoing their hack n' slasher revival at Gamescom. As well as giving us a firm March 8th release date for next year, Capcom also dropped a new trailer, and it's leaning all the way into the ridiculous excess that the series became famous for in Devil May Cry 3 onwards. Check the videos below for demons, gore, banter straight out of a superhero cartoon, wildly enthusiastic vocal battle themes, and some gameplay footage.

After briefly passing through another developer and another protagonist, Devil May Cry is going back to the old ways. Capcom tonight announced Devil May Cry 5, directed by Hideaki Itsuno (the director of DMC 3 and 4) and bringing back old Dante (now properly old) and Nero as our heroes. Expect over-the-top hack 'n' slash action, doofy demons, big bosses, and sarky quips. Nero has made a new pal too, who you can meet in the announcement trailer below.

Devil May Cry HD gets the PC collection it deserves, kindahttps://www.rockpapershotgun.com/devil-may-cry-hd-gets-the-pc-collection-it-deserves-kindaBrock WilburSat, 17 Mar 2018 18:51:59 +0000https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/devil-may-cry-hd-gets-the-pc-collection-it-deserves-kindaResident EvilPlatformerRPGBayonettaCapcomDevil May CryHorrorAction Adventure

Devil May Cry is finally on PC in an HD collection that brings together the first three games into a magical hack-and-slash adventure that allows the player to take some revenge on some utterly bizarre demons. These three Playstation 2 originals first got the HD treatment in a bundle back in 2012, so sure, 2018 is an appropriate time for PC owners to finally have access. The question is: what is that HD treatment worth to us now?

Twitch Prime now includes a monthly bundle of gameshttps://www.rockpapershotgun.com/twitch-prime-now-includes-a-monthly-bundle-of-gamesDominic TarasonFri, 16 Mar 2018 22:16:01 +0000https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/twitch-prime-now-includes-a-monthly-bundle-of-gamesMr ShiftyShadow Tactics: Blades of the ShogunOxenfreeTwitchDevil May CrySuperhotStealth

Like it or not, subscription services are becoming a greater part of the gaming sphere with each passing month. Humble Monthly, Origin Access, the XBox game pass (which now includes PC games) among others. Many of us already have a subscription to Amazon Prime, which brings with it a slew of perks and giveaways on streaming mega-hub Twitch.tv, and now you can get a monthly bundle of games as part of the service.

The first month's lineup is an impressive lot, including time-bending FPS Superhot, teen horror adventure Oxenfree, Hotline Miami-esque Mr Shifty, board-game adaptation Tomb of Annihilation and (last, but by no means least) brilliant Japanese-themed Commandos tribute Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun.

It's been a while since Capcom announced that the original Playstation 2 Devil May Cry trilogy would be making their way to PC, upscaled and polished up for modern machines. After going silent over the holidays, the Japanese publisher have finally piped up, and released a trailer for the updated bundle, along with a release date: March 13th.

Even though Dante's iconic red duster never goes out of style, I feel that this debut on PC may be a little more than fashionably late. Even more strangely, Capcom may well torpedo their own launch plans by giving away the first of the three games to anyone subscribed to Amazon Prime as part of their Twitch perks package later this month.

Three of Capcom's Devil May Cries are getting a treatment from Nurse Definition, in fact - 2001's first game, 2003's somewhat disliked Devil May Cry 2, and 2006's special edition of Devil May Cry 3. I.e., the first of four hacky-slashy games to star the original, silver-haired, which way to to the Final Fantasy VII cosplay contest Dante, as opposed to the shorter- and darker-haired finger-flipping version from Hellblade studio Team Ninja's 2013 DmC. They're getting high-def and sixty frames treatment in a $30 triple-pack next May.

Wot I Think: Devil May Cry 4 - Special Editionhttps://www.rockpapershotgun.com/review-devil-may-cry-4-special-editionRich StantonTue, 07 Jul 2015 16:00:46 +0000https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/review-devil-may-cry-4-special-editionDevil May Cry 4: Special EditionReviewsFeatureCapcomWot I ThinkDevil May CryAction Adventure

As the mighty PC strides into the future, a choice faces the great console developers. Support the biggest and most powerful platform on the planet or miss out on sales: seems like an easy decision, but the results can be questionable. When considering Capcom's Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition [official site], for example, exhibit A would be DMC4's original PC port in 2008, a straight-from-console affair that could only be controlled with a pad. Great game plus great hardware doesn't always equal great experience. So, with the Special Edition now launched, does this devil finally get his due?

We might have missed out on the Definitive Edition of DMC: Devil May Cry on PC but the Special Edition of 2008's Devil May Cry 4 is coming our way. It'll arrive on June 24th, a few days after the console release, but will include all of the same goodies. Those goodies include a new "Vergil game mode", allowing players to control Dante's devilish brother, as well as a mode that replaces the original game's controllable characters (Nero and Dante) with Lady and Trish.

Have You Played... DmC: Devil May Cry?https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/have-you-played-dmc-devil-may-cryAdam SmithMon, 15 Dec 2014 15:30:30 +0000https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/have-you-played-dmc-devil-may-cryDmC: Devil May CryNinja TheoryFeatureHave You PlayedCapcomDevil May Cry

Have You Played? is an endless stream of game recommendations. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time.

It's a mark of how much I enjoyed ridiculously named reboot DmC: Devil May Cry that I'm absolutely gutted because there's no sign of a sequel. It was the daftest game I played in 2013 and one of the deftest as well. Having alienated many fans of the series before release, by featuring a different brand of posturing pretty man than they were used to, Ninja Theory's gloriously over the top romp seemed doomed to fail, but it's a beautifully barmy concoction.
