After more than a year since its release, Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat continues to thrive. Launched amidst a wave of overseas releases from Tencent following the Chinese gaming license freeze, the game has sparked mixed reactions among fans, yet it remains a solid 3D brawler. Now, the game introduces an exciting new character: Awakened Prince Dante.
This version of Dante sports a demon-heavy aesthetic, skillfully wielding both his fists and sword. Embracing the darker side of his nature, Awakened Prince Dante harnesses the power of the Sin Devil Trigger and a range of special abilities, such as applying Life Waste to enemies. This effect causes them to suffer additional HP loss over time, adding a thrilling layer to combat.
The addition of Awakened Prince coincides with Peak of Combat's celebration of over a year on global storefronts. Amidst the ongoing success and divisive reception of the Netflix Devil May Cry anime, it's plausible that Peak of Combat is reaping some indirect benefits. Notably, players in Asia are enjoying a 50% rebate on summons as part of their own anniversary event.
**Bang, bang, bang** While Peak of Combat may face criticism for closely adhering to Tencent's business model, the introduction of Awakened Prince demonstrates a commitment to exploring the rich lore of the Devil May Cry universe through diverse character additions.
With enhancements like increased shield-breaking efficiency, Awakened Prince Dante is not for the faint-hearted. However, for those who have honed their skills through endless combo practice, this character presents a rewarding and challenging experience.
