Bayonetta 2 will support some nice features when it releases on Switch next year.

Bayonetta 2 was announced for Switch last night during The Game Awards alongside Bayonetta 3 for Switch.

Switch owners who pick up Bayonetta 2 for the console can play with others via local, wireless co-op and Tag Climax, which was previously only available online, will be included. Players can also take part in online co-op.

Video capture will also be supported along with the Bayonetta amiibo released for Super Smash Bros. Whether both Bayonetta amiibo will be supported or just the Bayonetta 2 model isn’t known at present.
