Nintendo eShop Update: Bayonetta 3

This week’s eShop update can be summed up in two words: Bayonetta 3.

What more do you need? The series has been marked by crazy action since it debuted in 2009, and this entry seems like it’ll hit all the same boxes.

Obviously, there are a whole bunch of other games featured in this week’s update, but the return of the Umber Witch is easily the highlight. See the full list below, and also check out Nintendo’s updated Game Store list, here.

This week?s Nintendo Download includes the following content:

  • Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch
    • Bayonetta 3 ? Get ready for a devilishly good time in one of Bayonetta?s most full-bodied adventures yet! In this new, over-the-top climax action game, everyone?s favorite witch, the fabulous Bayonetta, must face a mysterious group of evil manmade bioweapons using her signature weapons and time-slowing Witch Time ability. Tap into new powers like Demon Masquerade, which lets you channel one of Bayonetta?s demons, and save the day across new locales like the streets of Tokyo and the mountains of China. Plus, play as new character Viola, who fights with a sword and a capricious demon companion named Cheshire. You?ll also meet a virtual coven of other Bayonettas, each more fabulous than the last. Bayonetta 3 will be available on Oct. 28 in Nintendo eShop.
