And to think some people thought it was going to be delayed until next year, still kind of weird that Nintendo just dropped the news in a Tweet, I don't know why there hasn't been a General Dierect, the third-party focused one was good but still.
October seems like a pretty packed month in terms of releases, just hope that Bayo 3 sells well, now it's competing against NieR and Persona 5R on Switch.

It is kind of odd. Nintendo is the publisher for 2 and 3, but it's sort of handled like an afterthought. Maybe because it isn't developed in-house or isn't one of Nintendo's many "mascot" brands?

Anyway, it's nice to have a release date. I like the series and Bayonetta 2 was the first game I bought for my Switch.

Girl Nero looks hideous and by god, what a story. Even Danny De Vito is back.

If she looks "hideous" to you, I'd probably go to an eye doctor if I were you.

My pansexual butt still wants to be totally gay with the punk rock witch.

Hell yeah. She's pushing a lot of my buttons.

Looks like the same gameplay that made me get the first two Bayonetta’s, which is assuredly a good thing.

Is Enzo going to be in this? I know his VA sadly passed a few years ago.

I don't think they're mishandling Bayo 3, sure they could market it more effectively, but since Bayo 2 Nintendo has treated the series almost as a first-party title, with the Nintendo-themed DLC costumes and with Bayo's appearance in Smash Bros. I still remember how angry people were when Bayo 2 was announced as a WiiU exclusive, though it seemed like Nintendo was the only publisher interested in the series, a while I don't think agree with that view that Nintendo just recently started marketing their games for a more mature audience with the Switch, having Bayonetta as one of their flagship games is very important to attract that audience.
