Devil May Cry game order

As Humble Bundle currently offers a discount on many DmC games, I looked into getting them all. Though it proved hard to get the right games. This is mostly caused by the reboot.

I found following infos on wikipedia:

This info sadly misses the fact which games are replaced by "Devil May Cry HD Collection". Through some googling I found that the HD collection includes DmC 1, DmC 2 and DmC 3. So my understanding would be, that if I want to get the whole story game wise, I would need to get following games:

1. Devil May Cry HD Collection
2. Devil May Cry 4
3. Devil May Cry 5

and then play them in the order listed in the second picture.

Is that assumption correct or am I missing something?

The proper order is as follows

• Devil May Cry 3
• Devil May Cry 1
• Devil May Cry 2
• Devil May Cry 4
• Devil May Cry 5

Devil May Cry 2 is pretty unrelated to the rest although one character is mentioned in Devil May Cry 5

DMC: Devil May Cry is entirely unreleated to the series storywise and is simply a reboot.
