Platinum Games’ Bayonetta is available for PC via Steam today with 4K support and advanced graphical settings, priced at $19.99.
This is just the beginning when it comes to PC ports of SEGA games, according to the press release, which makes us hopeful for Vanquish. John Clark, Senior Vice President of Commercial Publishing for SEGA Europe, said:
We are dedicated to bringing high-quality, best practice PC conversions of our back catalogue games to our fans, and Bayonetta was a great fit. Bayonetta is one of the most often requested PC conversions of our games, so finally being able to launch it on Steam is fantastic. There’s more to come!
The game's frame rate will run at 60FPS though the cutscenes will be at 30FPS. It supports keyboard & mouse controls, too, in case you don't have a controller.
