Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Bayonetta 3 is available at Mascom International for KSh 8,000, brand new and sealed, as a physical game card for the Nintendo Switch. Published by Nintendo and developed by PlatinumGames, Bayonetta 3 is a single-player action game first released in October 2022. It runs in TV, tabletop and handheld modes. Nintendo lists 14.4GB of required space for the download version, while the game card carries the game itself and leaves save data and updates on the console. You can collect Bayonetta 3 at our shop on the first floor of the Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for action fans who want a demanding solo campaign, Bayonetta 3 suits university students, young professionals and anyone who games in handheld mode on the matatu home. Many action games start to feel shallow after a few hours. Bayonetta 3 answers that with Witch Time, a slow-motion reward for dodging at the last second, and Demon Slave summons that put giant demons under your direct control mid-fight. A second playable character, Viola, brings her own fighting style. Several difficulty settings, plus a Naive Angel Mode that covers revealing moments, let newer players settle in at their own pace.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that pass off pre-owned cartridges as new, Mascom International stocks sealed retail copies only. Customers across Nairobi tell us they want a game card that will still read in six months, bought from a shop they can walk back into. Bayonetta 3 also makes sense for homes that lose power during KPLC outages, because a charged Switch keeps the session going in handheld mode. Visit us in Nairobi CBD to pick up Bayonetta 3 today, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the Bayonetta 3
How much is Bayonetta 3 for Nintendo Switch in Kenya?
Bayonetta 3 for Nintendo Switch costs KSh 8,000 brand new and sealed at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the physical game card in its retail case and a 6-month warranty on the card, with claims handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk. You can pay on arrival when we deliver, by cash or M-Pesa, so you see the sealed case before any money changes hands. Bayonetta 3 sits KSh 500 above Batman Arkham Trilogy and at the same price as Mario Tennis Aces.
Should I buy Bayonetta 3 or Batman Arkham Trilogy on Switch?
Pick Bayonetta 3 for fast, combo-heavy combat, and pick Batman Arkham Trilogy for slower stealth and exploration. Bayonetta 3 costs KSh 8,000 and is one long single-player campaign built around Witch Time dodges and demon summons. Batman Arkham Trilogy costs KSh 7,500 and bundles three separate games, so it offers more total content for KSh 500 less. Batman rewards patience and planning from the shadows. Bayonetta 3 rewards quick reflexes and replaying chapters to earn better medals, so choose by the pace you enjoy.
Does Bayonetta 3 need internet in Kenya, and what happens during power cuts?
Bayonetta 3 plays its full story offline from the game card, so you do not need Safaricom or Airtel data to finish it. A connection helps only for downloading updates, and Nintendo notes that cloud save backup needs a paid Nintendo Switch Online membership. During KPLC power cuts, a charged Switch keeps running in handheld mode, so a blackout in Kisumu or Kilimani need not end your session. Save at checkpoints often, because progress is stored on the console rather than on the card.
Who should buy Bayonetta 3, and who should skip it?
Bayonetta 3 suits older teens and adults who enjoy stylish, demanding action and do not mind replaying levels to master combos. It carries an ESRB Mature rating and an MA15+ classification in Australia for strong fantasy violence, so it is not for younger children. Families wanting a game everyone can play together should look at Super Mario Party at KSh 7,300 instead. If you prefer a gentle adventure with no combo pressure, Pokemon Shield at KSh 7,800 is the calmer choice from the same shelf.
Can I play Bayonetta 3 on a Nintendo Switch Lite or Switch 2?
Bayonetta 3 works on the Nintendo Switch Lite, the standard Switch and the Switch OLED, because every model reads the same game card. On the Lite you play in handheld mode only, since that model has no TV output. Nintendo also lists Bayonetta 3 with required space on Nintendo Switch 2, so the card carries forward if you upgrade later. For the Lite, a second pair of Joy-Con is not needed, as this is a single-player game with no couch multiplayer.
Do I need to play the earlier games before Bayonetta 3?
No, Bayonetta 3 can be your first game in the series, because it opens with its own story and teaches its combat from the start. Returning fans will catch more references to Jeanne, Luka and earlier events, but the multiverse plot stands on its own. A first-time player learns Witch Time, demon summons and Demon Masquerade forms within the opening chapters. If you enjoy it, the earlier Bayonetta games are also on Switch, and our team can check stock for you on WhatsApp.
What makes the combat in Bayonetta 3 different from other action games?
Bayonetta 3 lets you control giant demons directly in the middle of a fight, which most action games never attempt. Demon Slave summons call in creatures such as Gomorrah while Bayonetta keeps dodging, so you juggle two characters at once. Demon Masquerade fuses her with a demon for new attacks and movement. Viola plays differently again, triggering Witch Time with a well-timed parry instead of a dodge. Buyers throughout Kenya report that this mix keeps the game fresh across repeat playthroughs.
Is Bayonetta 3 worth buying in Kenya?
Bayonetta 3 is worth buying in Kenya if you want a serious single-player action game for your Switch at KSh 8,000. The physical card can be lent to a sibling, carried to campus at Strathmore or JKUAT, and played on any Switch without an account transfer. It runs offline, so data bundles are not a constant cost. Mascom International sells it sealed with a 6-month card warranty, which protects you better than buying a loose cartridge from a street seller in town.
Technical Specifications
Gameplay Content and Modes
- Single-player action campaign split into chapters — you work through stages, set-piece fights and boss battles at your own pace.
- Witch Time slow-motion mechanic — dodge at the last moment and enemies slow down, giving you free hits.
- Demon Slave summons — call giant demons into battle and steer them directly while Bayonetta keeps moving.
- Demon Masquerade forms — Bayonetta merges with a demon to travel and attack in new ways through each chapter.
- Viola as a second playable character — she parries rather than dodges to trigger Witch Time, which changes your timing.
Players and Online
- One player locally, per Nintendo's listing — this is a solo game, not a couch multiplayer title for parties.
- One player online — online features are limited, and the main story needs no internet connection at all.
- Nintendo Switch Online membership needed for online play modes — the subscription is paid separately from the game.
- Save Data Cloud supported with that membership — progress can be backed up if the console is lost or damaged.
- Offline play from the card — insert it, pick your user profile, and the campaign begins without any sign-in.
Console Compatibility and Performance
- Runs on Nintendo Switch, Switch OLED and Switch Lite — the card fits the cartridge slot on every model.
- Nintendo lists Nintendo Switch 2 support — the same card plays on the newer console if you upgrade later.
- TV mode through the dock — play on a living room screen using Joy-Con or a Pro Controller.
- Tabletop and handheld modes — prop the Switch on its stand or hold it in your hands on the move.
- Surround sound through linear PCM — a home theatre system connected by HDMI can carry multi-channel game audio.
Storage and Install
- 14.4GB required space listed for the download version — the game card version reads the game from the card itself.
- Save data stored on the console — your progress stays with your user profile, not on the physical card.
- Updates download to system memory — keep some free space on the console or a microSD card for patches.
- MicroSD expansion supported by the console — Nintendo notes that Switch 2 accepts only microSD Express cards.
- Actual free space may differ from Nintendo's listed figure — check available storage before downloading any update.
Age Rating and Content

- MA15+ classification in Australia — flagged for strong fantasy violence and online interactivity in the game.
- Naive Angel Mode — an option that covers revealing moments, useful when the game plays on a shared family screen.
