DualShockers writes: "Back in 2010, Bayonetta released to the utter delight of critics and action game fans around the world. The game’s over the top titular character, rich, refined combat and glittering fantasy environments and enemies made it an instant classic. Since its release, fans have been begging for developer Platinum Games to work its magic and whip up a sequel. Nintendo recently made the overwhelming announcement that Bayonetta 2 is actually happening – and it will be a Wii U exclusive.
Obviously, this is fantastic news for fans. The years of waiting, praying and clutching at tiny, insignificant rumors are finally over. A sequel to Bayonetta has finally been announced. Unfortunately, the news of its Wii U exclusivity isn’t as amazing. The original Bayonetta was only made available for the PS3 and Xbox 360. It was never even released for the Wii, which makes this news even more interesting."

I could definitely see a Bayonetta/Dante game. Imagine them initially battling each other before eventually teaming up to take on the big baddies. Now, imagine what their child(ren) would be like.
Bayonetta and Dante I could see but even then with how their lore differs it's a hard sell. For the others...I just can't see it at all.
I feel he's just saying whatever comes to him online
Bayonetta is a witch who enter contracts with demons for power and Dante is a demon, not really hard to connect.
They could even write in an alliance between the umbra witches and sparda.
On the surface yeah but the actual lore the two games have given us if you go into it...not so much.
TNS: Hideki Kamiya recently hosted a reunion and drinking party with former Bayonetta devs, confirming even more PlatinumGames resignations.
Platinum Games faces a talent drain as five senior developers, including directors behind Astral Chain and Bayonetta 3, reportedly leave the studio.
Even if they buy them, they'd be buying a shell of a studio at this point. Almost everyone that mattered to the studio is gone.
Never a good sign. They lost Hideki Kamiya, which was arguably the top tier of their talent list. So, seeing this is like the writing on the wall. They got Ninja Gaiden 4 coming, so hopefully that’ll deliver and keep them going.
I like the change to blue! I really do.
Words cannot describe how much I am looking forward to Bayonetta 2
Just give her a normal size neck plz
