Devil May Cry 5 - Stylish Rank Method

Devil May Cry 5 is all about whipping demonic butt with style. As such, DMC5 incorporates the Stylish Rank system, which has become a staple throughout its titles. For those new to Devil May Cry, here are the basics of why you should destroy demons in the flashiest ways possible:

Stylish Rank = Graded Style Points

You will be graded for your performance after each level in DMC5. Whenever you kill an enemy, they drop a number Red Orbs which you need to collect in order to garner a higher rank. How well you fare in battle determines how many Red Orbs you’ll collect when completing a stage.

Your Stylish rank rises whenever you attack an opponent using various actions and combos while not taking damage from enemies. The higher the stylish points, the higher your rank will be.

The total number of Red Orbs collected so far in the game is displayed at the upper right corner of the screen. Meanwhile, during battles you can see how many Style Points you’ve acquired during a battle via a counter at the right side of the screen.

Loss of Stylish Points

Your Stylish Points go down whenever you are hit by enemies or when you’re unsuccessful in maintaining your combos. These will lower your overall grade once you complete a stage. It is best to avoid getting hit by enemies while keeping your combos high.

Turn it Up!

The game’s Background Music changes whenever your Stylish Rank rises. Four kinds of music are available, depending on how high or low your rank. Try to listen for music changes, as it is another indication of your current Stylish Rank.
