Devil May Cry 5 hits new major sales milestone

Following a lengthy hiatus, the Devil May Cry series returned in a big way with DMC 5 in 2019 – quickly becoming the best-selling entry in the series. While we have yet to get a new game since, interest in Dante and co. has not waned, with the latest Devil May Cry 5 having now officially sold 10 million copies.

Every quarter, Capcom publicly publishes its updated list of ‘Platinum Titles’ – games which have sold over 1 million units. Sharing the latest stats across their franchises, the publisher has now revealed that as of the 31st of December 2024, 2019’s Devil May Cry (in combination with its Special Edition remaster / expansion) has sold 10 million copies, making it by far the best-selling entry in the entire franchise.

For context, the second-best-selling title is 2013’s DmC Devil May Cry which pushed a total of 3.1 million copies – 1/3rd of DMC 5’s total sales.

Unfortunately, as mentioned, there’s been no new activity in the DMC space ever since Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition.

That said, with how much of a success the latest entry continues to be, hopefully the chefs over at Capcom are cooking up something great. We will have to continue to wait and see.
