Vanquish and Bayonetta Bundle Reaches UK Top Ten

The recent re-release of PlatinumGames' Bayonetta and Vanquish has reached the number ten spot in the UK charts, making it the most successful boxed game release of the week.

As two of the most highly-praised games in Platinum's lineup, Bayonetta and Vanquish are often highlighted as the pinnacle of the stylish action genre. This news stands as proof of the anticipation building in many fans for the upcoming Switch-exclusive Bayonetta 3, which is yet to receive a release date.

Founded in 2007, PlatinumGames made its debut with MadWorld for the Wii. Over the years the studio strung together an impressive quantity of games with critical reception ranging from poor to outstanding. Despite some of its games missing the mark, the ones that landed became absolute classics which cemented PlatinumGames as one of the most intriguing developers working in the industry today.
