Happy pre-Devil May Cry 5 day! With the latest game in Capcom's hit hack and slash releasing tomorrow, March 8, 2019, I wrote a timely review with my impressions after beating the game. You can check out my Devil May Cry 5 Review on Walmart Canada here. Also, below are the direct links to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of the game on Walmart.ca:
