The 100-Summon in Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat, explained

Actually one of the worst microtransactions I’ve ever seen

Is the 100-Summon in Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat a good deal? No. It’s absolutely not, for several reasons. I can’t in good conscience explain how this microtransaction works without plainly, explicitly clarifying that this is something you should never buy under any circumstances. We good? Good.

Basically, the 100-Summon in Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat lets you perform 10 10-pull summons in a row. Each of these appears to have a guaranteed weapon or hero at the highest rarity, based on my results. Once you’ve used the 10 summons in a row, you’ll have the option to pick one of them and purchase it for $59.99.

I don’t think Peak of Combat even tells you this thing costs sixty buckaroos until you’ve already performed your summons. Adding insult to injury, your summons will expire in 12 hours if you don’t purchase it, and afterwards the feature will be lost. This is blatant FOMO, encouraging you to purchase this package before time runs out so you don’t think it through.

For reference, “reroll summons” like this are just a standard feature in other gacha games. For example, SINoALICE let you reroll as many times as you wanted to start your account. How the game values this at “90% OFF” like the banner says is truly beyond me. I cannot think of a single universe in which a 10-pull is “worth” $600.00.

Should you purchase the 100-Summon in Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat?

NO. I put that header there just in case you somehow skipped the first paragraph. Typically, I’m not here to tell people how they should or shouldn’t spend their money. But this is such an egregious rip off that I can’t begin to sugar coat it.

Even if you come from royalty and have infinite money, I still would tell you not to purchase this pack. In case your motivation for buying microtransactions like these is the feeling you get when dominating the leaderboards, this still isn’t a good deal. Think of all the things you could do with that $60 that would make you feel important and significant instead.
