Bayonetta 3 is a classic hack and slash game developed exclusively for the Nintendo Switch. As the title suggests, it's a sequel to two other games.
Regarding the gameplay, there's not much to say. It's a hack and slash game with combat mechanics reminiscent of the old games from the God of War franchise, for example. In my opinion, there's almost no significant improvement when compared to the other two Bayonetta games, especially the second one.
I would consider it a step back when it comes to the story. The first two Bayonetta games had better plots. While the third episode of this franchise isn't a huge problem, it's not as good as what we've seen before, making it somewhat forgettable. In my opinion, this game relies heavily on the charisma of its characters for its storyline.
As for performance, I can say it's almost the best that Nintendo Switch can offer at this point in the generation. I haven't noticed any significant FPS drops during my gameplay, which is crucial for a hack and slash game. The graphics may not reach their full potential on this hardware, but they are acceptable.
Bayonetta 3 was a highly anticipated game that, in my opinion, didn't fully meet expectations. It's definitely not a bad game, but it lacks the same impact as the previous two. It's an enjoyable game, but whether it's worth the $60 price tag is debatable.

@TylertheTigrex I think Bayonetta 3 is one of the games that most clearly indicates that the Switch is in its final moments. Even though it doesn't have performance issues, you can imagine that the game could be much better. Throughout my gameplay, I kept thinking that it would be much better on a PS5, for example, and that's not a thought I always have when playing on the Switch, even though it's an obvious conclusion.
