Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat - Game Review & Gacha Rates

2024-01-12

Devil May Cry Peak of Combat is a new title in the Devil May Cry series developed for mobile devices. The story is set between Devil May Cry 1 and Devil May Cry 3. From the beginning, we encounter many familiar characters. Foremost among them is Dante, the protagonist of the entire series, who plays a central role here as well. We find him initially enjoying a drink in a bar when suddenly attacked by demons. However, he is not alone; another familiar face is with him – Lady! She, too, will be a playable character, along with others we already know, namely Vergil, Dante's brother, and his son, Nero, Dante's nephew. Each character will have different "Versions" available that can be obtained during the game, opening the way to various combat styles. Moreover, there will be numerous bosses to face, a rich story to discover, and an attempt to understand who has once again awakened the horde of demons and is hunting Dante and his team. If you're a fan of Devil May Cry, you absolutely cannot miss this title!

What is Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat?

This new action game is perfectly inspired by the Devil May Cry saga. As in previous games, the combat system in this title is fast-paced, featuring combos executed through prolonged attacks, dodges, and jumps at the right moment. The game includes various characters, each with different versions. Each character will have an element (Physical, Fire, Frost, Electric) and a role (Damage, Sustain, Support) that will help us understand when and which one to use optimally based on the situations we'll face. The game offers a wealth of content, both PvE and PvP. Notable among the PvE content is the entire Main Story, divided into chapters, which unveils the main plot of this new chapter in the series. There are Daily Dungeons, such as Perfect Timing, where you can obtain Exp Potions to level up characters, Vine of Greed for acquiring Red Orbs, and Airborne Challenge for getting Spectre to enhance weapons. Additionally, there will be the opportunity to face bosses in Co-op mode with other players, allowing for enjoyable experiences with friends. For PvP, you can engage in hand-to-hand combat with others in the Sky Arena mode, where you can face other players in real-time battles! Moreover, numerous events, solo Boss Hunt modes to compete against other players and climb the leaderboard, Co-op Challenges, Towers to climb, and much more will be available!

Main Story

In the Main Story, we embark on Dante's new journey to uncover who is once again awakening evil to pursue him. During the Main Story, we'll receive Dante, Lady, and Nero as gifts, in the Demon Hunter, Swift Arsenal, and Knight of Order variants. Progressing in the Main Story will consume stamina but also earn us various rewards (Gems, Summons, Character Shards, etc.). By completing the Main Story, we can unlock all the other game modes.

Daily Dungeon

Daily Dungeons are special challenges we can tackle once a day, providing a substantial amount of materials to enhance our adventure. Right from the start, we have:

Perfect Timing

Vine of Greed

  • A challenge against an immobile enemy launching various attacks to dodge. Defeating it grants a large number of Orbs.

Airborne Challenge

  • Defeat all flying enemies in the shortest time possible to acquire items to enhance our weapons.

These are just some of the daily challenges, and as we progress in the game, we'll unlock new ones!

Challenge

Dispatch

Dispatch

Thanks to the "Dispatch" game feature, we can send our characters on missions that last for a specific duration (for example, the first mission lasts 6 hours) and from which we can obtain various rewards (Exp Potion, Orbs, etc.). If one or more characters are currently on a specific Dispatch mission, we'll need to wait for it to be completed before using the same character in another Dispatch mission. There is a daily limit of 5 Dispatch missions, so consider carefully which ones to complete to maximize your rewards.

Characters & Weapons

Characters

Characters

In Devil May Cry Peak of Combat, each character possesses various specialties, such as the type of damage inflicted, attack speed, or the weapon used. However, all characters need to be leveled up and enhanced to achieve a high level of power. Let's explore how to strengthen our characters and improve them in the best way.

Stats

  • ATK = Increase your Character Damage

  • DEF = Reduce the damage your Character Receive

  • HP = Increase the Health point of your Character (If this reach 0 during a battle, your Character is dead)

  • MP = At maximum point you can unleash ultimate

  • Crit Rate = The chance to land a Critical Strike

  • Crit DMG = The damage of Critical Hit

  • Style = Style counter increase by doing Combo and defeating enemies. It affects various abilities.

Element

Card

  • Cards are equipment that allows us to gain additional stats and passive abilities based on the set we choose to give our characters. Like weapons, cards also need to be leveled up, and with each level, they acquire additional stats. The rarer the cards we equip, the higher the level they can reach, along with the additional stats.

Weapons

Weapons

Weapons, like characters, are a fundamental aspect of the game, and they too need to be leveled up and enhanced to fully harness their power. Let's see how to improve our weapons:

Upgrade

  • You can increase your Weapons level by consuming Spectre items. Once a weapon reaches the level limit, you can break this limit by consuming special items.

Rank Up

  • If you Pull dupes of already obtained weapons, you can consume them on the same Weapons to improve further stats and passive ability.
