How it feels

A breakneck, acrobatic brawler where every encounter is a chance to chain flashy, over-the-top combos against demonic hordes, dripping with gothic camp and a punishing learning curve.

What players say

Players praise the combat and Nero's introduction, but overwhelmingly warn that the PC port is broken on modern systems, requiring community patches just to start. Many call the game unfinished, with a rushed second half that recycles bosses as Dante. Long-time fans are split on whether the gameplay holds up.
