This dark and stylish "God of War" clone was developed by Visceral Games, the team behind the "Dead Space" games. Based on the ancient medieval italian poem, the game's cinematic visuals are striking. While "Dante's Inferno" is a hack 'n slash game with light puzzles and platforming, it has hellish and outlandish environments out of a horror game. It also has flashy combat that is fast and fluid. While not on the level of "Dead Space", "Dante's Inferno" should please hack 'n slash and beat 'em all fans. It deserves to be included and preserved by GOG in their digital storefront.

I never got to play this game and it always bothered me, because this looks so damn gooood. The whole setting and the vibe. This would be an instant buy for me.

Fighting and killing the grim reaper with his own reaper was a satisfying boss fight. I play this at my mate's system. So I did get to finish the rest of the game.
The setting, the themes, the sound, the combat. Seriously, what's not to love about this one? God of War did dominant the market, but this really went a long way.

I'm honestly shocked that this game didn't make it huge. The movie and game are both incredible. It's just such an epic character who fights through hell in a fantastic game. I have it on PS3, and would be floored if I could play it on GOG.

I really miss this game, it was gritty, dark and had awesome gameplay! the soundtrack was really nice and it was very videogame-y but it has something a lot of games these days are missing; it had character, it had soul and actual substance. Dante's Inferno needs to come back !

Dante’s Inferno. It’s a God of War clone, but I found its setting and story more interesting. The upgrade system feels so much better than God of War’s; I can tell attacks become stronger as I level up, and the enemy has more personality and variety. This is the studio that made Dead Space 2 and 3, so I thought I’d check it out. I’m glad I did, as it’s pretty damn good. Maybe a little too carbon-copy of God of War’s gameplay—come on, guys, at least make cutscenes skippable! Do something to make it feel less like a reskin! All things considered, I think it did GoW better than GoW did GoW. It really did feel like I was progressing. Hell is a much more believable place for this impossible architecture full of tricks and traps than the temple in GoW, and the reason for the slaughter is far more engaging. Things just make more sense. Dante is so much more interesting than Kratos. Dante made mistakes and doesn’t want someone else to suffer for them. Kratos...? I don’t recall anything interesting about his origin. Dante absolves for past sins and to save his wife from the depths of hell using Death’s scythe to aid him as he descends through the 9 levels of Inferno. It’s grotesque and amazing. It hasn’t been re-released since its PS3 debut. It deserves a re-release.
The dream that it would be if i ever see this game on PC. Hours and hours of playing this gem, motivated me to read The Divine Comedy to know more about the nine circles of Hell. All that there is about this game is stupendous, even that it's known as a God Of War clone, it has it's own image and presence, fuelled by outstanding levels marked by personality of each circle and unique bosses corrupted by each sin, solid combat mechanics, a decent soundtrack and a very compelling, grim and sad story. Brings back too many good times playing and talking about it with some friends back in the day. I just hope to see and play it again, perhaps in some near future...
