Last week, Platinum Games and Nintendo confirmed that not only Bay9onetta 3 is in development for Nintendo Switch, but also that the first two entries in the series are getting released on the console. Today, we have learned a few more details regarding the ports.

Polish website FilmWeb has got in touch with ConQuest Entertainment, Nintendo's Polish distributor, which confirmed that both Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2 will run at 720p, 60 FPS Switch, regardless of the console's mode. While this is nice for portable mode, since it's the screen's native resolution, this isn't as nice for docked mode. Additionally, it's been confirmed that Platinum Games itself is working on the ports, with no external involvement.
