Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle Reviews
Other than a nice, steelbook case for the physical edition, the Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle doesn't have much else to offer.
Unsurprisingly, the improved version of Bayonetta brings rich combat system with decent number of combos, many interesting enemies and a great story. Moreover, it boasts on better resolution and higher FPS. All that glitters is not gold, and so Bayonetta suffers of outdated visuals which would really need a change. Nevertheless, the title's core still entertains.

Of the two games in the re-release pack, Bayonetta is the one that stands out the most, as it is easily the most fun. Shooter fans might have some fun with Vanquish, but anyone who likes action hack-and-slash titles such as God Hand or Devil May Cry should grab a copy of Bayonetta immediately, if not before.
Good bundle with two absolute action classics, which were lovelessly ported to the 4K era.

Back in 2017, a couple of Bayonetta games were released on PC and this Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle includes both games, added in some fixes and additional elements with Korean localization and then re-released after 10 years since the original. The gameplay does not disappoint even compared to some of the modern action games and if you play through the easier modes, the gameplay experience will still be at its best form for those who may lack any advanced control scheme of the game. They may have not added new contents for the modern consoles but the affordable pricing for two games in one is already a decent value as a bundled package.

Bayonetta & Vanquish 10TH Anniversary Bundle is a worthy compilation, giving both games the standard of the current generation. However, its "anniversary" nature makes it feel a little sketchy by not offering any additional content. They are the games that came out in 2009 and 2010 improved technically, without more. Two unmissable masterpieces, but that does not seem to demonstrate the affection that people have for them.

Sega gave us an excellent virtual gift that shouldn't pass by any fans of adrenaline filled action games and the PlatinumGames portfolio. The timeless gameplay of Vanquish and Bayonetta both speaks for itself and feels modern even now.

If you've never tried Bayonetta and Vanquish before, the Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle can definitely be a great way to do it, but if you've tried these titles in the past and on other platforms, the new remake package, Doesn't bring you any specific point or content. With all these interpretations, the existence of two names "Bayonetta" and "Vanquish" in the eighth generation on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles are amazing.

Both Games and especially Vanquish, are still after around 10 years worth a look for newcomers. Despite the lack of real new features or optimization, you should still give the games a chance if you haven't played them yet.

These games are still two of the great ones but theses remastered could have done more.

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.
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.

Both games featured in Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle hold up well a decade after their original release.
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.

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 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.
Bayonetta & Vanquish 10th Anniversary Bundle offers two great games, with 60 FPS, but no graphic improvements, neither new stuff.

Even a decade on, both still feel so unique, so special, so Platinum, that it’s hard not to be excited for whatever the studio is working on next.
Even to this day, Bayonetta and Vanquish are among the top of the action game genre. I just wish some greater changes were implemented to make them shine on Xbox One X. Right now, the bundle seems like it just appeals to existing fans, and that might be its biggest problem because it lacks any noticeable refinements aside from the boost to resolution and performance.
Playing these titles does not get stale and while it is frustrating that Sega refused to celebrate these classic games with more extras and additional content, they do stand on their own merits even a decade later.
