With Devil May Cry 5 due to hit Xbox One, PS4, and PC later this week, many players are eagerly counting down the days until they can get their hands on it. As such, we’ve written up this guide on everything you need to know about Devil May Cry 5‘s preload and unlock times so you can jump into the action as soon as possible.

Devil May Cry 5 is the latest entry in Capcom’s fast-paced, hack-and-slash series. Set a few years after the Order of the Sword incident, some weird things start going on at Red Grave City and it’s down to the Devil Hunters to save the day. Below, we’ve broken down the preload and unlock times for each individual platform.

Xbox One Preload

The Xbox One was actually the first platform to offer up preload for the game, and it actually started back in November 2018. You’re free to go ahead and preload it now on the Xbox One, and then you’ll be free to start slashing your way through all manner of fiendish enemies as soon as the unlock times arrive.
