Bayonetta 3 pre-order bonus

Five years after it was first announced, Bayonetta 3 isn’t too far away from its launch on Switch, and we’re starting up our pre-order guide which will include any bonuses if they’re announced. Nintendo and PlatinumGames will be continuing the hardcore action series that first began in 2009.

Bayonetta 3 has confirmed a few story elements, including that the bioweapons known as Homunculi are invading and there’ll be a few “a virtual coven of Bayonettas”. We also know that you’ll be able to play as Viola, “a feisty witch in training who fights with a sword and a capricious companion, the demon Cheshire.” Other than that, the game will include Demon Masquerade, “a new ability that channels the demon linked to her weapon allowing for some exciting action options, not to mention some hair-raising combos.” Bayonetta can also summon certain demonic creatures like Gomorrah, Malphas, and Phantasmaraneae during battle. PlatinumGames recently confirmed that a Naive Angel Mode will be available to make things a little less risqué.

Into the Breach update 1.2.77

Subset Games has started distribution of another Into the Breach update, with the game moving up to version 1.2.77 on Switch.

Some additions, improvements, and fixes are included here. The team added a couple of new music tracks, enhanced the save file backup system, and more.

The full patch notes are as follows:

Marvel's Midnight Suns Nico Minoru

We have yet another Marvel’s Midnight Suns character trailer, this time highlighting Nico Minoru. Although she has a ton of power as a witch, the magic can be chaotic and unpredictable.

No Man’s Sky players on Switch now have access to a new version 4.0 update known as Waypoint, which comes just a few days after the game’s launch on Nintendo’s console.
