By Joseph WhitfieldThroughout my time with Bayonetta 3, it felt that the game was always on the cusp of setting my Switch on fire, but thankfully my house is still standing and the slick performance was intact. The story is as bonkers as the rest of the series, raising the stakes to a level that’s on par with the latest Marvel movies and while I do think that it is a little try-hard in some areas, we still have another great hack ‘n’ slash from Platinum Games. Bayonetta 3 might have taken a thousand years to arrive, but thankfully it's bloody good fun and is a fitting addition to the franchise.
ElderPlayers
By Mariam MohammedThis game may be the best of the trilogy in terms of the diversity of gameplay and fighting elements and presents many interesting ideas, but it lacks some of the touches that previously characterized the series and is not without flaws in several aspects, in addition to ending the story in a frustrating and hasty way.
Starbit
By Sérgio MotaEverything that made the first two games unforgettable is here, as well as a very welcome set of new elements, such as new characters and mechanics of other genres which do an excellent job at helping the experience to remain attractive. The combat system keeps its long-running signature moves and it's accessible enough to welcome as many segments of the audience as possible, while the plot is fleshed out at a new level. Truly Bayonetta 3 is an exquisite work that is both fresh and reliable.
INDIANTVCZ
By Petr DuppalBayonetta 3 brings a sufficient amount of fresh news, thanks to which it revives even a somewhat dying game genre. We recommend the title for 9 points out of 10, mainly for its excellent combat system.
M3
By P-A KnutssonWith hysterical excessive action, Bayonetta 3 is unlike anything else. Even the predecessors are in the lee. The adventure constantly surprises with new elements and mighty battles, but not always to the good. On the one hand, the whole becomes fragmented and uneven, and on the other hand, the Nintendo Switch does not really mess with the developers' ambitions. But a damn entertaining action game it is nonetheless.
