But that’s not it! Nintendo UK is giving out all the scoop on Bayonetta 3. Here is a brand-new epic trailer for the upcoming title:

With some cinematics and gameplay, Bayonetta 3 looks like the title we were all waiting for. Here is an overview of the game (via Nintendo UK):

The witch is back and more powerful than ever!
Bayonetta struts through multiple locations in an all-new, over-the-top climax action game for Nintendo Switch. Sporting a wicked new ensemble and somehow familiar pigtails, the titular Umbra Witch must face a mysterious evil using her signature guns and time-slowing Witch Time ability. This time, invading man-made bioweapons called Homunculi find themselves in Bayonetta’s crosshairs.

Get ready for a devilishly good time
Tap into Bayonetta’s naughtier side with Demon Masquerade. This new ability channels the demon linked to her weapon, allowing for some exciting action options and hair-raising combos. She can also summon her demonic darlings like Gomorrah, Malphas, and Phantasmaraneae during battle, unleashing their demonic powers in the heat of combat and in new, larger-than-life battles where you directly control the action.

A bounty of Bayonettas
Fight your way through the streets of Tokyo, the mountains of China, and many other locales! Along the way, you’ll meet a virtual coven of Bayonettas, each more fabulous than the last. You’ll also slash and slay as Viola, a feisty witch in training who fights with a sword and a capricious companion, the demon Cheshire. Find out what fate awaits Bayonetta and if this arcane alliance can save reality!

​​Play as the bewitching Bayonetta in the third installment of her climax action game series:

• Shoot, stomp, and slam your way through multiple locations and meet other Bayonettas.
• Channel the power of demons using the new ability, Demon Masquerade.
• Unleash Bayonetta’s Infernal Demons in larger-than-life battles.
• Slash and slay as witch-in-training Viola and harness the power of her feline demon, Cheshire.
