Forums - Gaming - Kamiya hints at Bayonetta 2, could be a spin-off

http://gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2010/01/21/news-bayonetta-2-practically-confirmed-almost.aspx

Hey, you liked Bayonetta didn’t you? Of course you did, with its sexy witches, insane action, multifaceted serpents and other epic bosses, what was there not to like? In that case, you might be interested in this little tidbit: In a recent interview for the March issue of Game Informer, Platinum Games director Hideki Kamiya teased what the company might be working on next.

According to Kamiya, “We obviously have love for the work we have created, so I don’t see anything wrong with Bayonetta 2. Personally, I’d like to approach the world of Bayonetta from a different angle, in the form of a spin-off.” Perhaps a game starring Jeanne? Could be cool. Then again maybe the game could star one of those flying baby heads that Bayonetta had to shoot out of the sky. We wouldn’t put it passed those guys.

For more from Kamiya about Bayonetta be sure to check out our Afterwords section in the March issue of the magazine where he answers questions from the fans about Bayonetta's character design, what her name means, and where all that hair came from.

Anyone else excited over the possibility of a sequel for this game? Would you want a spinoff, or would you rather see Bayonetta return to the limelight?

I hope SEGA does a good job making the spin-off.

Uhh, interesting, i'd love to see that happen (spin off or not) as long as 2 things remain.

1.- The game is developed by platinum games (not lame Sega, as a publisher its ok)
2.- The game is still in the action/hack n slash category.

So yes, i'm all for more Bayonetta, but not too soon. Kamiya always needs time to surpass his own work, which is hard to do in Bayonetta (Gameplay-wise).



I'll probably love anything Platinum does. I loved MadWorld, haven't gotten to play Bayonetta yet but have watched friends play it and it looked really fun, and I'm really glad they have hinted at sequels to both. Next up though, I can't wait for their crazy spaceship game for the DS to finally come to America.



Cool. I haven't actually played Bayonetta and I'm not sure I will, but more good games never hurt.
