Bayonetta 3 Developer Teases "New Types of Gameplay"

Bayonetta 3 is looking like one of the biggest Nintendo Switch exclusives of 2022, and fans are eager to learn more about the game. PlatinumGames vice president and Bayonetta 3 director Hideki Kamiya recently spoke to IGN about plans for the third entry. Kamiya pointed to the teaser trailer that...

"If you look at the [trailer we released in September]," Kamiya told IGN, "hopefully that should reassure you that we have been hard at work on development, and it should also show you that there are a lot of new elements in this game that were not in Bayonetta 1 and 2. I hope the footage released so far will fuel your expectations for this game.

"At the beginning of the trailer, viewers might have been confused about what game it was for, and then we introduced some enemies, and still it was kept unclear, and then Bayonetta appeared. I think the fact that we were able to pull off this misdirection in the trailer shows that the new game has its own colour. Bayonetta 3 looks a little different, and it includes some new types of gameplay, so I hope players will find it fresh."

I'll definitely pick this up and I'm sure it's going to be awesome- I just wish it wasn't a Switch exclusive.

This is directly comparable to Devil May Cry, so it's nothing like the Xenoblade titles at all.

??? I don’t think Bayonetta has anything to do with Xenoblade games but if you are comparing to other Xenoblade games they share core combat but each game has it own unique mechanics like 2nd game’s
Blade system.

It's weird to see Kamiya talk this much about this game, since he's not involve in it.

This. I don't want to come off negative here but man, Bayo 3 in 4K res @ 60fps would be something.. what a shame.

Nintendo was the only one willing to fund sequels to Bayonetta, meanwhile Sony and Microsoft didn’t care for it.

Without Nintendo Bayonetta 2&3 wouldn’t exist. I personally had no problem playing those games on Switch and I would rather to play on that system than not getting any Bayonetta at all.
