Following in the footsteps of such over-the-top games as Devil May Cry 3 and Metal Gear Solid 4, Bayonetta is a high-style action game from Hideki Kamiya and his team at PlatinumGames. In Bayonetta, players take control of an extremely powerful, sensual witch by the same name and guide her in her efforts to hunt down the angel legions. Although third-person action games are a dime a dozen, Bayonetta is a truly special affair. And being able to finally enjoy some extended hands-on time with the game was a real pleasure.
The creator of the Bayonetta franchise Hideki Kamiya appeared in an interview and discussed the plans for the future of the series.
