    Platinum Games and Nintendo do it again! I love this game! Super fun, but also challenging. Good for beginners new to the genre and old fans alike.

    This game came from no where and is a great buy. A bit slower pace for a platinum game but an amazing play none the less. Highly recommended!

    Has a huge story that is very action packed. The playtime is so long it would take me a month to complete it if I played it every night.

    Could be great, the switch cannot run it well

    The game could be great on something else, but the switch chugs. It runs around 10-12 fps mid fight, and seems to drop both resolution and frames really bad. If this was on PC I would have loved it.

    In the beginning, I feel like it is an awkward game. However, once the first episode is passed, the game becomes a legend.

    This is a great action game for Switch. Highly recommended for fans of Bayonetta, but feels more accessible and more fun.

    This is a perfect example of a Platinum and Nintendo collaboration. I haven't finished it yet, but it is pretty fun. There is a lot of flair in the battle system between your player character and your legion. It is very much a stylistic game.

    Bought this after playing through the Bayonetta games. I would consider this a hidden gem for the system.

    This game has a battle system that looks slick and is fun to execute. It also does some interesting things with exploration, puzzles, and platforming The story was initially interesting but kind of unraveled in the later parts of the game.

    I’m pretty fond of Platinum games and I picked this up solely because of that and cyberpunk peeks my interest. It’s a nice fast paced game that you’re a cop. Just wish there was a way ay to block cause dodging can be finicky.

    It's a pretty good game. I wanted something similar-ish after nier automata. There's a little side quest mode where you gotta do cop tasks and they kinda take you out of the game. But it's worth it still.
