Is Bayonetta 1 getting a physical release?

The first Bayonetta started it all, and PlatinumGames' series has taken off since its initial release in 2014. Since then, fans have received a sequel in Bayonetta 2, and Bayonetta 3 now has an official release date. But some other news for the Bayonetta series may have fans wondering if Bayonetta is getting a physical release on the Nintendo Switch.

The answer is yes—after all this time, Bayonetta 1 is officially getting a physical Switch release. It was initially ported to the Switch as a code bundled with Bayonetta 2. With this new release, fans will finally be able to own all three Bayonetta's physically.
