DmC: Devil May Cry

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Ninja Theory's reboot reimagines Dante with fluid style combos built on swappable angel and demon weapons, set in a surreal Limbo city that warps and twists around you. It pairs a punk attitude and satire of media and consumerism with a pounding soundtrack.

Bayonetta 2

Boss fights as highlights

A blistering character action game where Bayonetta battles angels and demons using Witch Time dodges, wild combos and summoned demons. Absurdly over-the-top spectacle backed by an extremely precise and deep combat system.

DmC: Devil May Cry - Definitive Edition

Lavish presentation

You slice through demons with stylish, juggling combos that reward expressive play, all wrapped in a gritty reimagining of the Devil May Cry series. This edition bundles the base game with all previously released DLC, including the Vergil's Downfall campaign, running at 1080p and 60 fps.

God of War III

Boss fights as highlights

Kratos' savage war on Olympus delivers colossal boss fights against gods and titans, fluid combo-driven combat and presentation that was jaw-dropping for its era. Puzzles and climbing sections break up the carnage.

God Hand

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A gloriously absurd Wild West brawler where you pummel demons and freaks with a customizable moveset and the divine God Hand. Fast dodging, a punishing difficulty curve and bonkers humor make it a cult classic.

God of War II

Boss fights as highlights

Kratos wages a vengeful war against Olympus, allied with the Titans, in a brutal combo-driven hack-and-slash. Its colossal boss fights, like the Colossus of Rhodes, and its inventive environmental puzzles pushed the PS2 to its limits.

Bayonetta 3

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A fast, flamboyant hack-and-slash where witch Bayonetta chains stylish combos using Witch Time and huge demon summons. Over-the-top presentation, a multiverse plot and precise dodging define the experience.

Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

Build variety

A fast action RPG spin-off in the Final Fantasy universe with Soulslike influences: as Jack you fight through a grim reimagining of the original Final Fantasy using a deep job system, parry-based combat and optional co-op. Its melodramatic story is memorable and often enjoyed ironically.
