The Multiverse of Games promotion on the PS Store is almost over, which means a slew of PS4 and PS5 deals will slip through players’ fingers if they don’t act fast. This includes a beloved action game from PlatinumGames that was originally released in 2009.
Bayonetta is 75% off on PS Store
Bayonetta is currently 75% off on the PS Store. This brings the price down to $6.24 from its typical $24.99 price tag. Players will want to act fast if they want to take advantage of this limited-time deal. The offer ends on June 5 at 2:59 a.m. ET.
“Experience the genesis of the Bayonetta series with the cult classic, original action-adventure game,” reads the game’s description. “The tantalizing Umbra Witch rises from the depths after half a millennium in slumber with no recollection of her mysterious past. Immediately thrust into battle, she must vanquish her countless enemies to piece together the truth.”
“Take advantage of Bayonetta’s arsenal of skills including shapeshifting into various animal forms, summoning demons with her hair, and exercising her mastery of the bullet arts,” continues the description. “Hack, slash, and open fire upon hordes of celestial foes in this wickedly charming action-packed adventure.”
When Bayonetta was released on the PS3 in the United States in 2010, it was met with a generous reception. According to the review aggregate site Metacritic, it garnered an average score of 90 across 86 critic reviews. Its success spawned two more entries and a spin-off, Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon.
The original was eventually brought to PS4 with some graphical enhancements as part of the Bayonetta and Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle. In our review, we gave it an 8 out of 10.
“But aside from being clearer and crisper, it’s difficult to point to how Bayonetta and Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle is special,” reads our review. “It runs great. It gives people an excuse to play two ridiculously fun games again. Unfortunately, there’s nothing else to make it really pop.”
