Capcom has detailed what time long-awaited action game sequel Devil May Cry 5 will go live across the world tonight. The game's official release date is March 8th, but the actual release time is technically today depending on where you are. Here's how it breaks down. Note that there's no mention of preloading:

4PM PST sounds a lot nicer than midnight UK time to me. How am I going to make my fingers keep up with the game at that time of night? We've previously been very positive on Devil May Cry 5, with Tom calling it "an exceptional return" for the series. This is the first mainline entry since 2008, when DMC4 was released on consoles. Reboot DmC: Devil May Cry was released back in 2013.

A couple of days ago, Capcom released this video detailing the series' story so far—and fair play, it doesn't seem to acknowledge Devil May Cry 2.
