In the new Devil May Cry 5 all three characters have their own unique fighting styles. Nero has the ability to swap arms known a Devil Breaker, which grant him all sorts of unique abilities. If you don’t know how, here’s how to switch arms in Devil May Cry 5.

How to Switch Arms in Devil May Cry 5?

Nero has so many different types of Devil Breaker to choose from and it is important to learn how to choose which specific arm to use at certain times in the game. If you have equipped the wrong one or simply want to learn to use a different weapon, you can still change the arm directly in combat.

However, it is important to note that there are only two ways to change weapons in combat in Devil May Cry 5:

How to Switch Arms in Devil May Cry 5: Method #1

  • Drain its energy by using it in combat against enemies.

How to Switch Arms in Devil May Cry 5: Method #2

  • Destroying it completely by blowing it up.

You can destroy your Devil Breker by hitting it while using it or using the incredible Break Away that inflicts massive damage at the cost of Nero’s arm. To activate this destructive special move, simply press L1 on PlayStation 4 and LB on Xbox One. There’s no other way to change your arms in Devil May Cry 5, so you’ll have to get used to breaking down Nero’s weapons. Luckily you can pick up the red balls during the game that will increase the number of arms you can carry on the battle cambo. You can also get new Devil Breakers as you advance in the game.
