There's still so much to do after beating Devil May Cry 5. This guide will help players learn about the best things they can do after beating the main campaign. Devil May Cry 5 came as a surprise to everyone when it was officially announced back at E3 2018. It has been years since the release of Devil May Cry 4 and the series had received a reboot that was not appreciated by the fans of the series. Although, good faith has been restored as Devil May Cry 5 returned the series back to its hack-and-slash roots and is one of the best looking games this generation by being developed in the Resident Evil engine. There's still so much that players can do after beating the game. Here are the best things to do once Devil May Cry 5 is over.
The series has an interesting order of events and can intimidate newcomers if they aren't aware. For example, the games should be played in the order of release, but are also not the order of which the story takes place. The beginning of the story actually takes place in Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening. The first game in the series is actually the second in the order of events. Fortunately, Devil May Cry 5 is at the complete end of the saga. It is recommended to play the previous entries before this one to get a better understanding of the story and its characters, but it is not mandatory to enjoy the game. Here's what players can do after beating the base game for the first time.
Complete Every Secret Mission in Devil May Cry 5
Secret Missions are these red portals that players can find when exploring the rest of the levels of the game. There are 12 in total, each with their own task and challenge for the player to complete. Each one will reward the player with a Blue Orb Fragment.

Complete The Various Difficulties in Devil May Cry 5
Devil May Cry 5 comes along with multiple difficulties for the player to experience. Each of these difficulties is actually tied to trophies outside of the game. From Human, Devil Hunter, Son of Sparda, Dante Must Die, Heaven or Hell, and Hell and Hell mode, there's so much to experience. The last two difficulties mentioned are the hardest in the game and will likely give players much to experience. Try them all out to see what works.
Achieve Every S Rank in Devil May Cry 5
This is easily one of the most challenging things to do in the game. When battling a horde of enemies, the player will be ranked on how well that battle went. It's usually ranked on how stylish the combos are. On certain levels, players can encounter up to 5 different waves of enemies. Getting an S rank on every battle in every mission is extremely challenging but also very rewarding. The player will also need to be comfortable with all of the playable characters fighting styles.
Devil May Cry 5 is the best-selling game in the franchise. It has shown Capcom that players are still invested in games like these. It is likely that more titles will be released in this series to keep the hype pushing forward. It may be a while before players can experience a Devil May Cry 6, but Devil May Cry 5 makes it worth the wait.
Devil May Cry 5 is available now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
