Devil May Cry is a series that has become known for its huge combat sequences that offer players the chance to take down huge swathes of enemies with a collection of truly outrageous weapons. This is why we decided that we wanted to write something about all of the weapons that can be used in Devil May Cry 5. With there being three characters open to the player, it's no surprise that between them, there are quite a few for us to ꦐgo throug🍒h and take a look at, which is exactly what we've done.
However, we're not just going to simply list them here, but we're going to rank them from worst to best, letting people know exactly how we feel about the new weapons that Devil May Cry 5 has offered up to us. We're ♍going to go through every single one of them, so people who haven't played the game yet can take a look at just which weapons they should be looking forward to using the most! Those who have played it already can see whether or not they agree with our ranking!
So, it's about time that we got down to it and took a look at the weapons that can be used in Devil May Cry 5. Unlike a lot of other games out there, this is a franchise that lives on having weapons that keep players coming back, so expect t🏅o see some things that are absolutely insane before we get to th🐼e end of this list!
20 Cane
We know that this thing has some interesting powers, offering people the ability to teleport to enem💯ies for example, but it's mainly just there to finish anyone off that hasn't been taken down by some of V's various other attacks. This man has got a lot of stuff hidden behind the mask, offering him the option to pull out some serious moves so it's no surprise that the cane he's carrying around doesn't do too much for him. That being said, it's a shame that this guy doesn't get to wield the same sort of power that the other two characters do!
19 Shadow
Even though we really like the fact that this weapons allows V the ability to move a lot faster, something that people should always be trying to do while playing a Devil May Cry game, it doesn't change the fact that his shadow attacks just don't have the same sort of oomph as many of the other weapons on offer. Don't get us wrong, the shadow moves certainly get the job done when they need to, but there's something about them makes them feel lacking in power, which is definitely a failure when playing a Devil May Cry game!
18 Kalinaᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ Ann
Nobody is denying that this thing has some serious power, which can be important at different times throughout the game, but that doesn't change the fact that it is incredibly slow, especially when compared to some of the other weapons on this list. We've already talked about the fact that one of the main parts of this game is th🌺at it's im🐓portant to feel like there's a lot of speed behind the character, that it's almost as if we're gliding through the game, stylishly taking the world on! There is nothing stylish about this brute force projectile...
17 Coyote-A
Okay, so despite the fact that this thing kicks hard and does feel very cool to use, it doesn't change the fact that it's way to slow and cumbersome to use in a Devil May Cry game. Just like the weapon above, it can be used to great effect when a player needs to smash an enemy to pieces with a lot of firepower at close range, but outside of that specific set of circumstances we can't see why anybody would choose to use this weapon 🦩over the standard pistols that are on offer. Use it from time to time to see how it feels but then put it away until it's really needed.
16 Balrog
Look, we're not going to say that these things aren't fun to use, because they definitely are, we just didn't find that they made us feel as swift as some of the other weapons, meaning that they've come in lower on the list than we're sure a lot of people will be happy with. For us, they just don't exemplify what Devil May Cry is about, and feel almost as if they were brought along because they've been a fan favorite for quite some 🙈time now, rather than because they actually deserve to be in the weapon roster with some of the other greats we have here.
15 ꦜ 🙈 Swordmaster
This is widely considered to be one of the easier style that is open to Dante, offering new players a chance to take on the gameplay, but this does also mean that it doesn't feel as good for players that are well beyond the likes of a beginner! It's usually used to create very long combos while also offering a chance to use up close melee moves that inflict a lot more damage than many long-ranꦐge weapons do, so it's definitely one that we'll all be using during the game, but that doesn't mean that we will enjoy the fact that we have💯 to!
14 King Ceb꧟erus 🦋
While we didn't enjoy this weapon the first time we were let loose with it in the franchise, we have to say that Devil May Cry V has made this weapon a pleasure to use, but it's certainly not the best weapon in the entire game still, not by a long-shot, which is why it's still pretty low on the list. However, ♛we really did have a love of fun with them as they offered us some quick and stylish moves to use꧋ against the many enemies we came up against, while also being able to pack a punch when it came to stronger enemies!
13 🦩 Ebony & Ivory
If there's any recognizable icon that immediately gets people thinking about the Devil May Cry franchise it's these two weapons, the things that have kept Dante safe ever since he swaggered onto our screens all those years ago. It's no surprise that these things don't do loads of damage, what with the fast speed at which they fire, but it doesn't change the fact that they are one of the most enjoyable weapons to use in the entire game. However, there are better weapons out there, so we've still got a long way to go until we see the best that 5 has to offer!
12 Blue Rose
A gun that can fire two bullets at the same time is just the sort of ridiculous thing that we have all come to expect from the Devil May Cry series. While it's not as fast as Ebony & Ivory, it does have a special charge up mode of its own and it is amazing at taking on enemies that are farther away, which can be a real help. What we're saying is, this is the sort of weapon that we have come to expect from Devil May Cry and we definitely have a soft spot for it in a lot of ways, so we're g🐈oing to🐷 place it right here in the list!
11 ꦬ Royalguard ꦓ
We don't often think of defense when we think about this franchise, as it's all about going right up against the enemy and trying to take then on with speed and damage. However, this style is all about offering people the chance to properly defend themselves, and if the player gets it right then they will suffer no damage and be able to build up their ability to actually counter an enemies moves rather thaꦉn just tank them! We've put it fairly low because, it's just not as fun as being able to bash the enemies heads in instead!
