10 Best Directed Video Game Cutscenes Ever

10. That Incredible Credits Sequence - Devil May Cry 5

Perhaps one of the greatest comeback titles in the past decade of video games, Devil May Cry 5 sits the player down, tells them to shut up, and proceeds to blast them with hours upon hours of heavy metal, flashy moves, and Smoking Sexy Style combat.

Made for both returning fans and new players alike DMC5 opens with credits that make even John Wick feel like an amateur at gunplay. The protagonist Nero flips from the passenger seat of a van and proceeds to style on as many demons as he can.

Blasting them away in a slow motion extravaganza that all takes place across a couple of uninterrupted shots. As if that wasn't enough the entire scene is backed up by the wonderful, heart pumping beat of one of the games main battle themes Devil Trigger.

What makes this scene so perfect isn't in how it's executed, but rather in how it gears the player up for exactly what to expect from this game. It's fast, it's campy, and it isn't afraid to let you know it's here to have a good time.

Then when the game hands control over to the player and says 'Okay, it's your turn' there's only one thing to do.

In the words of Nico herself, get ready to "kick demon ass."
