    este juego es sorprendente cada nivel me causa una sensacion de querer seguir jugando para saber que mas va a pasar en la historia, los niveles de los demonios gigantes son alocados y con una muy buena banda sonora todo lo que espere de bayonetta

    auténtica obra maestra, supera al 1 y 2 que son joyas, sin duda de los mejores juegos de switch. Ya el empezar es épico y el juego sigue yendo a más y no deja de sorprender. Bayonetta es arte y en esta entrega aún han ido un paso más, la banda sonora exquisita como de costumbre, sin duda debes jugarlo.

    The king, ehem, Queen of the action hack n slash genre is back in town and the wait was totally worth it - Bayonetta 3 is a balls to the wall gem of a game that I have been addicted to since it arrived through the post. The action is relentless and the visuals are spectacular. Those with Godzilla dreams come true. Game of the year by a long stretch, can’t recommend it highly enough.

    Just an excellent game. If you like old school run and gun, hack and slash, explosive and immersive action that doesn’t give you a second to breath, welcome to Bayonetta. I’m halfway through and I don’t want it to stop. This witch is the Queen from the crop, just saying.

    De aquí en adelante Bayonetta murió y lo que salga con su nombre posterior a este va a ser una completa cagada, mira que no me cayó mal viola, pero si el juego tuvo 3 entregas fue gracias a: Primero nintendo y Segundo a Bayonetta, como personaje es una obra maestra, sin Bayonetta Cereza no existe Bayonetta. Excelente juego pero lo mataron en su tercera entrega. QEPD Bayonetta

    The follow up to the incredible Astral Chain, Bayonetta 3 has exceeded even my highest expectations in delivering a powerhouse of a game to long time fans and new fans experiencing this game for the first time.

In my opinion the game delivers in three key areas. The first area are the gameplay which is pure unadulterated fun, and the controls, which are so intuitive, like one single button manifesting the beasts of Bayonetta. The second area is performance. Now here the DF examination proves to be a croc of manure since the games performance rarely stutters and when it does it’s so minuscule that you have to be overgrown frustrated dork to realise it. Lastly is the value in what you are getting, and here I have already put in a week into this game and all I want to do is go back in and play again. It is that good. Other areas excel, like excellent voice acting so props to Jeniffer Hale, and the cut scenes which are fun and funny and really syncs nicely between gameplay, never interfering or feeling too long. This is why in my estimation Bayonetta 3 is the game of the year, because it not only matches the hype of expectation but surpasses it, frustrating those salty incels who wish it failed. Tough luck.

    Es un juego excelente. Tiene muchas armas (para quienes tienen el bayo 1 y 2 en la switch les carga las pistolas de estos 2 juegos). Se puede pelear con ángeles en algunos niveles, demonios y homúnculos.
    Es un espectáculo visual. Tiene los mapas mas grandes y variados que he visto en la saga.
    Se merece que sea comprado y bien valorado por nosotros los fans de bayonetta. Totalmente

    The Climax of a Trilogy on a Nintendo console at its Apotheosis to offer us an extremely fluid performance. A Pure Platinum ode to gameplay and user experience that can't stop to surprise us until the end. A Must Have on your Witch's List.

    Just an incredible game. It’s been many years when I’ve been so addicted to a game but Bayonetta 3 has seduced me to the point that I dream about waking up and playing this game. Just pure gameplay and incredible design means it’s simply the game of the year. Thank you Platinum.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bayonetta 3 is brilliant. The improved combat is amazing as is the music, the only thing I can criticize is the story, which was… interesting at best, the graphics suffer a bit due to the Switch’s limitations, but it runs well. As well as the new playable character Viola, her combat is not fully fleshed out and is somewhat clumsy. But her personality is nice, best described as a clumsy dork.

    But all in all, the game is great, and I enjoyed it very much. I can only recommend

    Una franquicia que entre más envejece, sus entregas son cada vez mejores.
    Un título que cualquier amante del Hack and Slash no debe perderse.
    ¡Simplemente sensacional!

    Une histoire bien mieux racontée que celle des deux premiers opus.
    Un système de jeu enrichie par leur précédent jeu Astral chain.
    Beaucoup de contenue post game.
    Plus de 10 armes différentes, + 10 démons à invoquer.
    Des stages variés, excellent doublage.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The new game play it’s fantastic to me, it’s more challenging, there’s platforms, puzzles a little of exploring and also the new fight mode “demon slave” and the “DO OI EA BAYONETTA!”. There’s also a mini game very interesting! The story it’s well done, I cried as never before, the end was a struggle, I was like “yeah she’s gonna make it” and a second later I was “oh no she don’t” and again “YAAS BI SLAYY” and so on. At least I can say that Bayo3 it’s full of stuff and news, minigames and game mode (you also play as viola and Jeanne). It was a good game to break the standards that th first 2 games gave us, I mean if you think about it, bayo 1 and 2 are basically the same. The new graphic sucks anyway, I mean the bayo 2 cutscene were much more better. Hope that I can see her again in a new chapter, I really love this game and means a lot to me… and I don’t want to play as Viola… I mean.. she’s cute but she’s not Bayonetta. Expand

    Despite the criticism and controversy with the voice etc, we must recognize that the gameplay, history, music, animation, and the gameplay in general, are getting better and better and this should not displace it from the best current Nintendo games.

    It's just still an overblown, entertainingly inappropriate, B-grade, sexist action ride that doesn't let anything tie it down or control it. [Issue#324]

    Bayonetta 3 excels in over-the-top madness. In the best possible way. But the story with wacky characters across parallel universes, is just the canvas for the real highlight of Bayonetta 3: the action. The titular witch's lightning-fast attacks are complemented her own magical powers, but you can now also temporarily take control of several enormous creatures, the "Demon Slaves”.

    Bayonetta is back and the long-awaited third game not only builds up on the excellent formula of games past, it goes one step forward and adds new protagonists, experiments with elements of other genres, improves on its plot structure, and allows all kinds of players to enjoy it, creating an experience that's both familiar and fresh, as well as accessible, thrilling, gorgeous, and enveloping. Bayonetta 3 is a fantastic addition to the Nintendo Switch catalogue and it deserves to be on everyone's collection.
