Fans of the popular Devil May Cry series will have a new title to enjoy soon, albeit only on mobile devices. Pre-registration for the spin-off game Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat has now opened up. You can pre-register on the official site here.
Players that pre-register will have a chance to gain access to the upcoming closed beta that was announced on their official Twitter account recently.
Here’s the official announcement trailer for the game that showcases some of the combat:
What is Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat?
Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat is a spin-off of the original game series and has been in the works since 2017. It is being developed by NebulaJoy, with guidance from CAPCOM as the publisher. Nebula has one published game under its belt, the global version of Mega Man X DiVE.
It has been reported that this DMC game is canon and will take place sometime in between the events of the original Devil May Cry and Devil May Cry 3: Dante’s Awakening. If you’re a fan of the DMC universe, then this could be a dealbreaker for whether or not you want to try out this mobile spin-off.
The combat attempts to stay true to the original series, with players able to pull off satisfying combos. There are also a variety of DMC characters to play, including Dante, Nero, Lady, and Vergil.
Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat is currently available to play in a small number of regions, and the general consensus so far is that while it’s a great fan service game, the combat is a little too simplified for die-hard fans of the series.
