‘Devil May Cry 5’ Reaches 6 Million in Sales Across PC, Consoles

Before Capcom gets to Resident Evil later this afternoon, they announced on Twitter that the most recent entry in the Devil May Cry series (that would be Devil May Cry 5) has hit another sales milestone. The fifth entry in the series recently passed six million units sold worldwide across PC and consoles.

Already the best-selling entry in the series, Devil May Cry 5‘s six million puts it within striking distance of the top 10 for Capcom’s Platinum Titles list. At the moment, the SNES version of Capcom’s classic Street Fighter II sits at 6.3 million units, with DMC 5 right behind it.

Of course, that might change with Capcom’s Resident Evil 3 remake being right behind Devil May Cry 5, with the former having sold 5.4 million units as of June 2022. And if you’re wondering, Monster Hunter: World is still top dog for Capcom’s Platinum Titles with over 18 million units sold across PC and consoles. Resident Evil 7 is next in line, with over 11 million units sold.

The next obvious question is will we get a sixth entry in the Devil May Cry series? With sales figures like these, that’s an obvious “yes”. The real question is when.

Devil May Cry 5 first launched for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam back in March 2019. That was followed by Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition, which launched for the Xbox Series and PlayStation 5 in November 2020.

Upcoming Narrative Horror Title ‘Still Wakes the Deep’ Getting PS5 Physical Version

Physical media fanatics can rejoice when it comes to The Chinese Room and publisher Secret Mode’s upcoming narrative horror game Still Wakes the Deep. Alongside the digital version of the game that’s set to launch on June 18 on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series, PlayStation owners will also be able to snag the physical version of Still Wakes the Deep on the same day.

Described as a welcome update for console players “whose greatest fear is the death of physical media,” the Still Wakes the Deep physical edition will be available from online and retail stores in North America and Europe. No word on if the Xbox Series will be getting the same treatment.

Sadly, there doesn’t appear to be any additional goodies with the physical disc. But, given that this guarantees you’ll have a copy of Still Wakes the Deep that you can pop into your console and play without the need to download it again, that’s a small price to pay.

Still Wakes the Deep takes place in 1975, where disaster has struck the Beira D oil rig off the coast of Scotland. You are one of the oil rig workers on the Beira D rig, fighting for his life through a vicious storm, perilous surroundings, and the dark, freezing North Sea waters. All lines of communication have been severed. All exits are gone. And something has snuck on board, leaving you to not only restore function to the rig, but also deal with the unknowable horror.

And keep an eye out for the upcoming mini documentary on Still Wakes the Deep, which is scheduled to arrive around April 30th.
