When Bayonetta 2 first launched in 2014 it included a disc copy of the first Bayonetta. Such copies of Bayonetta 2 are becoming harder and harder to find.
However, there is good news for anyone looking for the game after Bayonetta’s inclusion on the Smash Bros. roster. Earlier today, Nintendo of America announced via their Twitter account that a standalone version of Bayonetta 2 would be available to purchase February 19, 2015.
