Platinum Games is actively discussing where to take the Bayonetta series next.
In an interview with SourceGaming at BitSummit, Platinum producer Atsushi Inaba fielded a question regarding whether the team would still use Bayonetta as the protagonist or introduce someone new in a bid to surprise fans and keep the series fresh.
“I would like to make Bayonetta 3. We’re talking within the company even now about what to do,” says Inaba. “But because we’re constantly talking about it, that actually makes it really hard to say.
“Of course, that’s just something that you talk about when you’re making a series – do you want to keep the same protagonist? There’s plenty of precedent for changing protagonists, and so that is something we discuss – do we want to keep the same one, have a different one, add new ones…”
Inaba makes a point of mentioning there’s nothing he can say for certain at this point, so take the above musing as just that.
The whole interview’s worth reading if you’re a fan of the revered studio. One of the other stand-out points is Inaba’s response about working with Nintendo on The Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta 2. According to Inaba, the team had “a lot of freedom” to make the games the way Platinum wanted to, due to how far along the studio was in the development process - something Platinum was “very grateful” for.
The original Bayonetta recently launched on PC via Steam, and boasts Japanese and English voiceover tracks and enhanced resolutions up to 3840x2160.
