Devil’s Third is an over-the-top, third-person action shooter that combines modern military weaponry with ninja-style swordplay and melee combat. The game has a unique vision for a deep and challenging online mode that blends clan-based action, resource management and strategy.

Digitally DownloadedNov 20154.5/5 starsThe Devil's Third is a hell of a lot of fun because it breaks every rule in the book. I would take that, technical warts an all, over the glistening and safe nonsense that we're exposed to from almost every other shooter out there.

EurogamerRich StantonAug 2015Devil's Third is caught between genres it never quite brings together, and despite fun multiplayer never gets over its shaky foundations.

NZGamerMorgan BatesSep 20157/10Overall this feels pretty rushed for a Tomonobu Itagaki title – none of his Ninja Gaiden titles suffered from the same issues as this. The soldiers Ivan's teamed up with are a bunch of generic - almost cliché - and didn't add to the story, or help with bosses, making them fairly pointless. However, despite all that, it was fun, and in the end this could have been a great straight up beat 'em up if they had left out the shooter aspect.

KotakuKeza MacDonaldAug 2015Confused, inconsistent and technically poor, Devil's Third has some inventive ideas for multiplayer, but it suffers form the same flaws as its dreary campaign.

Game RevolutionPaul TamburroSep 20151/5 starsItagaki previously claimed that Devil's Third would be a revolutionary shooter, but I can now safely declare that statement to be laughable at best and highly delusional at worst. Devil's Third fails to be even an adequate game on almost every count, from its performance, to its gameplay, to its story and characterization.
