DmC: Devil May Cry is an upcoming hack and slash & beat 'em up video game developed by Ninja Theory and published by Capcom for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows. Announced in late 2010 during the Tokyo Game Show, the game is set in an alternate reality in the Devil May Cry series. It will focus on the player character Dante, a young man with supernatural powers who finds himself under attack by a seemingly sentient town known as Limbo City populated by demons.
The first quarter release season gets started in a big way this week with the release of the highly anticipated (and controversial) DmC Devil May Cry. A parallel universe story compared to the previous titles in the series, the game is nevertheless a similar combination of high-energy combos and air juggling, with a bit of platforming action mixed in.
We've previewed DmC Devil May Cry twice and came away with glowing impressions both times. Will it live up to the hype?
Another interesting title that's headed to the (this time, virtual) shopfront is Mitchell Corporation's Tokyo Crash Mobs. It's a funky looking game in which you need to throw people wearing like-coloured clothing at each other in order to make groups of three of them disappear. A match-three title, it's gameplay looks quite similar to Zuma - a game which Mitchell Corporation claimed was a ripoff of their earlier Puzz Loop (known as Ballistic outside of Japan), a title that Mitchell released as Magnetica on the DS in 2006.
