Will I be missing out on good content if I play it on steam?

[Nessville]

I read that there's a special edition that never got released on steam. Honestly, I'd buy the game but only if I can access everything on steam. I don't play on consoles.

The only thing PC players can't access is Raytracing.

Not really

You can import a save data using DMCV trainer. You'll unlock everything from the beginning, but still, you will need skill.

On Steam, you won't have the special edition.

What does the special edition have in terms of exclusive gameplay stuff?

I'd argue that you'll be missing out on lots of good content if you buy it anywhere else other than Steam. SE notable features include Vergil (which you can buy on Steam (in fact, I'm pretty sure you can only buy DMC5 with Vergil now, so you don't even have to worry about buying it separately)), ray tracing, turbo mode, and LDK. But PC has so many mods that it makes up for it. Two of those can be added in by mods, the only one excluded being ray tracing.

There's a co-op trainer that lets you play most of the missions and bloody palace with up to 4 players. Co-op trainer also lets you play as any character on any mission.

SSSiyan's trainer, which most hardcore DMC5 players will tell you is essential. It contains several (toggleable) gameplay changing mechanics, turbo mode, a modded LDK (which is more intense than SE's but is prone to crashes), must style mode, an enemy swapper, a wave swapper, devil breaker switcher for Nero, and more.

DMC5 with mods is the definitive version and no one can tell me otherwise.

You can get most of the console stuff by modding the game, which is actually really bad because that's something that should already be in the game and not a mod.


Legendary Dark Knight, a game mode that originated in vanilla PC version of DMC 4 is now locked to next gen consoles for some reason. LDK is locked on hard difficulty and has insane amount of enemies on the screen.

Turbo, a game mode that originated in DMC 3: SE and was only available on PC version of vanilla DMC 4 is now locked to next gen consoles for some reason. It increases the game speed by 20%.



treating PC like its last gen is just plain stupid and can't be justified in any way, shape or form.

[Nessville]

Ok thanks. It sucks but maybe I can live without turbo mode and LDK... I might buy it on sale.

[Lethal Placebo]

As people pointed out, you can install Turbo Mode and LDK as mods. In fact, they both come in the same mod. I'd definitely recommend the PC version over any console version.

Why would Capcom spend a single dollar to port stuff when it's already done with MOD?
It was still a low move that they didn't include the LDK with Vergil, but the Collaborative Trainer is so much better.

This doesn't make any sense. By this logic, they never would've put Vergil on PC either because modders made the boss version playable.
