Devil May Cry 5 doesn’t take long to beat, but there’s an emphasis here on replayability. So, you shouldn’t worry too much about how many missions Devil May Cry 5 has. That being said, we’ll go over how many missions there are in the game below and give you a rough estimate at how much time an average playthrough will be.
Also, keep in mind that the time it will take you to beat Devil May Cry 5 depends largely on what difficulty you choose. If you play on the easiest setting, you’ll be able to breeze through the game in no time. On higher difficulties, not so much.
How long to beat Devil May Cry 5?
During your first playthrough of Devil May Cry 5 you’ll be looking at around 10-12 hours to beat it. This includes cutscenes, so if you skip them you can subtract another 45 minutes or so. This estimate is based on playing on Devil Hunter mode, which is equivalent to normal difficulty.
As you play through the game multiple times and unlock new difficulties, the time to beat Devil May Cry 5 will vary. You’ll be getting better at the game, but it will also get much harder, so you’ll likely be looking at around 8-10 hours for subsequent playthroughs.
Since there’s so much emphasis on multiple runs through the story, though, you’re going to be looking at around 35-40 hours to unlock everything. It takes more than one or two playthroughs to unlock everyone’s abilities and unlock and complete the multiple tiers of difficulty.

A Gallery Featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry Series
Dante (From The Devil May Cry Series) has been one of Capcom's breakout characters since the PlayStation 2 days. Because of this, it only makes sense that he's made the rounds and showed up in other works. From fighting to card games, here are all the cameos of everyone's favorite demon hunter. -
Viewtiful Joe
In the PlayStation 2 re-release of Capcom's stylish brawler, Dante is a fully playable character who must rescue Trish from the same movie monsters that Joe fights. He and Joe strike up a friendship that lasts for the rest of the series. He also gets an appropriate chibi redesign to go with his always fanciful attitude. -
Viewtiful Joe: Red Hot Rumble
Dante returns to the Viewtiful Joe series in the PlayStation Portable port of Red Hot Rumble. This was a multiplayer-focused game that took the series in a more Smash Bros. direction. It's also the last Joe game to see release, although we're all waiting for his return. -
Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne
The game behind the sticker, Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne is the third entry of the original branch of Altus' long-running JRPG franchise. Dante appears as a bonus character and a boss fight for your party, which is fitting since Shin Megami Tensei is all about summoning demons to do your dirty work. -
SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters DS
Along with loads of characters from both Capcom and SNK, Dante made an appearance as a card in this TCG-focused Nintendo DS game. A follow-up to a string of NeoGeo Pocket games, Card Fighters only features the gaming heroes during the card battles. -
Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds
Dante was one of the most exciting additions to the Marvel vs. Capcom roster when Fate of Two Worlds hit the streets. His brother Vergil also joins the cast in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, letting fans play out the legendary rivalry in a new way. -
Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite
Dante along made the jump to Infinite, the poorly received new entry in this crossover fighting franchise. Still controlling as he did in 3, he's one of the easier characters to learn no matter where you select him. While this is the only fighting series this Dante has appeared in, this isn't the only Dante around. -
PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale
Appearing in his DmC style, Dante was one of the third-party characters battling it out in Sony's attempt at a Smash Bros. game. Several other characters from Ninja Theory's reboot appear in the periphery, including sidekick Kat as a mascot figure. -
Project X Zone
A crossover tactics game featuring the characters of Capcom, Namco Bandai and Sega, Project X Zone finds Dante hanging out with some gaming's most notable demons. His partner in the first entry in the series is Demitri Maximoff, the vampiric protagonist of Darkstalkers. -
Project X Zone 2
In X Zone 2, Vergil joins him and the two brothers utilize franchise specific attacks when used. From Ebony and Ivory to Nevan the shotgun guitar, they're ready to go with their entire arsenal. They also bicker endlessly, which you'd expect from such volatile partners. -
Puzzle Fighter
The latest Dante cameo is also one of the rarest. He was one of the new characters added to Puzzle Fighter, a mobile-only spinoff of the popular Capcom puzzle game that lasted less than a year on mobile storefronts. At least we got one more weird chibi Dante out of the deal.
