Fans are finally about to see the release of one of this year’s most anticipated titles on the Nintendo Switch, Bayonetta 3 from PlatinumGames. Although this game was first announced in 2017, gameplay trailers only appeared at the end of last year, giving an idea of how the series has changed since the second installment. The latest trailer came out this month, giving fans not only more information about the game, but also the release date for Bayonetta 3.
A little over three months after the game’s release, Nintendo has revealed the size of the game file, giving fans an idea of the space they will need.
As we read on the Nintendo website and the Switch eShop, Bayonetta 3 will occupy 15 GB of space in digital format. This is a size equal to or larger than some of Nintendo’s first-party titles, such as The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, which take up approximately 13.4 GB and 16 GB respectively. The fact that the game is bigger than Breath of the Wild is surprising when you consider that BotW is an open-world adventure, while Bayonetta’s games are usually more linear.
Bayonetta 3 will take up 15GB in file size holy crap

This isn’t the biggest game on Nintendo Switch – third party games like Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy, for example, take up 25GB. Compared to the other Bayonetta games released on the Switch, the first game takes up 8.6 GB of space. The second one takes up 12.4 GB of space.
A physical collector’s edition is also planned for Bayonetta 3, known as the “Trinity Masquerade Edition”, which will include special artwork of the three Bayonetta games and a special 200-page artbook. To top it off, Bayonetta’s first game will also receive a physical version after launching digital-only for Nintendo Switch. The launch of this physical version is scheduled for September 30th.
Bayonetta 3 will be released exclusively for Nintendo Switch on October 28, 2022.
