DMC3 Special Edition's a contender for my favorite game ever so have to vote for its return. The old PC port is a busted piece of junk on its own, but with the mods for it, it's got a lot of great additions from fans that really improve the gameplay such as style switching for Dante, and the addition of DMC4 style inertia on moves.
I originally experienced this on the Switch and it has to be like Top 10- maybe even Top 5 games of all time for me. From the music to the gameplay to the story, all of it can be described with 3 words: Smokin' Sexy Style.
um dos melhores jogos que tive a oportunidade de jogar no ps2, seria um sonho jogar ele nativamente no PC com todos os comandos no teclado e mouse. DMC3 é um dos melhores da franquia certamente o que o torna mais especial é que ele relembra a minha infância.
Objectively the best of the DMCs and the one with the most sovl. Rockin OST, memorable characters, great gameplay mechanics. This is one of the best games on PS2. Really ought to be available here if possible at all.
Why Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening – Special Edition (OG PC Port) Deserves to Be on GOG and Why It’s a Great Game
Devil May Cry 3: Dante’s Awakening – Special Edition is widely regarded as one of the greatest action games of all time—and for good reason. As a prequel to the original Devil May Cry, it dives into the origins of Dante and his rivalry with his twin brother Vergil. With its tight combat, stylish mechanics, and high skill ceiling, DMC3 redefined what hack-and-slash games could be.
The original PC port, despite some technical limitations when it first launched, still brought the full experience to PC players: fast-paced combo-based action, cinematic storytelling, and an iconic soundtrack. The Special Edition added major improvements over the original console version, including the ability to play as Vergil, a revamped difficulty system, and quality-of-life changes that balanced challenge with accessibility.
Having the OG PC version on GOG would not only preserve a key piece of Capcom and action game history, but also give it the DRM-free respect it deserves. GOG’s platform would allow players to revisit the roots of modern character-action games in a format that’s both accessible and respectful to the original experience—especially for fans of physical and legacy-style preservation.
Devil May Cry 3: SE is a masterpiece of gameplay design, full of unforgettable boss fights, over-the-top style, and raw energy. Its arrival on GOG would cement its legacy in the PC gaming world as the definitive version for collectors and purists alike.
