Posted on 9 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in News | 3 Comments
Tomonobu Itagaki’s new title Devil’s Third, which is slated to come out in North America on December 11th on Wii U, is officially getting a multiplayer-only version for PC titled Devil’s Third Online. Though the game was mentioned through various rumors that it would be doing so a few months back, it’s now been made official via Nexon and Valhalla Game Studios.
The game, which is being tweaked and tailored to be most optimal for PC, is planned to be a free-to-start title. More information on Devil’s Third Online as well as further news from Nexon and Valhalla will be presented on November 12th through a NicoNico livestream.
Are you willing to try out Devil’s Third Online when it makes its way to PC? For those that are skeptical from the immense criticism Devil’s Third has received, maybe this will be a good way for people to try it out for themselves and potentially look into the Wii U version. The campaign seems to be what’s most lambasted, but the frenetic and arcade-like nature of the multiplayer seems to be where Devil’s Third shines most, even if that shine is only a glimmer to some.

Itagaki comments on Devil’s Third reviews

On his personal Facebook page, Devil’s Third creator Tomonobu Itagaki commented on the reviews the Wii U game has been receiving thus far. The average score currently sits at a 41 percent on Metacritic.
Itagaki acknowledged the negative critical reception, but feels that “most of the people reviewing the game weren’t given a chance to evaluate it properly.” Whereas Devil’s Third’s online play was designed “to be enjoyed together with tons of people”, he has the impression that “dozens of reviewers were only allowed to try the game in a closed environment.” Itagaki added that he values player feedback to a much greater extend.
Head past the break for Itagaki’s full message.
