IGN: "After nearly eight long years of waiting, fans will finally get the highly anticipated release of Bayonetta 3 next month. With the franchise having brought some of the best gameplay in the action genre, as well as a notably overlooked story, my biggest questions going into this latest installment was how developer PlatinumGames were going to outdo themselves this time around."
PlatinumGames has released the first of a four-part documentary examining the development of Bayonetta 3. It's jam-packed with fascinating anecdotes from the team, including a rather surprising revelation from the game's director, Yusuke Miyata.
Miyata confirmed that Hideki Kamiya, creator of the Bayonetta franchise, approached him directly to offer up the role of the sequel's director. However, instead of jumping at the opportunity, Miyata was initially hesitant and was worried that Kamiya himself would interfere in the project too much.
Fans of Bayonetta rejoice, a number of official shirts, phone cases, and more based off the various entries were revealed. - IS
