Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle Reviews
Whether you were a witness to its glory in its original context, or whether you’re just reading about it for the first time in 2020, Vanquish is an experience worth having.
Graphically, Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th anniversary bundle has not improved that much, other than being upscaled to 4K and 60fps. But the gameplay still feels fresh and there are not many titles currently on the market that can offer the same experience and quality.

Aside from lacking any new content and the slightly roughness of Vanquish's presentation, Platinum Games 10th Anniversary Bundle is well worth the purchase for those who missed either of these classics. Returning fans will be undoubtedly disappointed by the bare minimum that has been given to both games, but that should not deter those who have not experienced the splendour of two of the most energetic and invigorating 3D action titles of all time.
If you're an action game lover (or a wannabe) this collection is not to miss, but Xbox One users could buy the backward compatible versions for far less than the price asked here.

Both games featured in Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle hold up well a decade after their original release.
Despite definitely showing their age in some respects, both Vanquish and Bayonetta hold up extremely well against modern counterparts when it comes to the pitch perfect gameplay. If you missed either of these titles upon their initial release, there's really no excuse to not give them a look in if you're even slightly a fan of the third person action genre.
The gameplay of these action classics remains as awesome as it was ten years ago, but as a remaster it doesn't really up the ante
In 2010, Bayonetta and Vanquish suggested modern action games didn't have to compromise between style and substance. In 2020, with a remastered tenth anniversary bundle, the acrobatic precision of both titles still feels ahead of its time. Hideki Kamiya and Shinji Mikami, and their teams at PlatinumGames, created enduring action masterworks and Armature's 4K facelift varnishes them with another decade of luster. Bayonetta and Vanquish look and feel ageless.
Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle brings together two of PlatinumGames’ best, giving them a fresh coat of paint to stand up to the visual standards of this decade. Vanquish is the clear winner of the two here, with some visually fantastic improvements, but both play just as well as they did ten years ago. While it's disappointing that bonus content isn't included, they’re still games any action fan shouldn’t miss.
Given Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle is based on two fairly well-known games from about a decade ago, there is only so much you can say. Both remain extremely engaging and I instantly found myself remembering why I loved both of these games. Even if the story is a bit of a weak point, both titles remain extremely engaging and still better than a fair number of games that release today. The only real downside to the collection is, again, the dated look. But, at roughly $20 apiece, it's easy to justify this ride regardless of this being your first or fifth run.
Platinum Games’ Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle is amazingly good value. While you will probably get more bang for your buck with Bayonetta, both are fantastic action games that hold up very well today. Sure, some gameplay features and plot aspects have not aged all that well over the last decade. However, if you are even a passing fan of action games, this bundle is a great way to experience how the company started.
Even after all of these years, both Bayonetta and Vanquish remain absolute action-packed classics. This bundle may not be the celebration they deserve, but both games are absolutely worth revisiting.
Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle offers two great games, with 60 FPS, but no graphic improvements, neither new stuff.

Other than a nice, steelbook case for the physical edition, the Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle doesn't have much else to offer.
Even though Bayonetta and Vanquish are sliding into our hearts again and people should definitely play them, this definitely isn’t one of the better remasters out there.
For a reasonable price you can own Bayonetta and Vanquish – two of the greatest action games ever made, and they’ve aged like a fine Japanese wine, proving exactly why PlatinumGames is the best in the business when it comes to character-driven action experiences.
Good bundle with two absolute action classics, which were lovelessly ported to the 4K era.
