''Do you like playing hack and slash 3rd person adventure titles? Did you like Devil May Cry 4? Then you are in luck, because at E3 Sega showed off Bayonetta, the next big 3rd person hack and slash adventure title to sink your teeth into.
Bayonetta is a witch with guns strapped to her arms and legs who happens to be able to fight marvelously well while shooting and using magical powers. Yes, a witch who uses guns, magic and martial arts. This isn't your standard hack and slash, it's what Sega is calling a "stylish action-shooter" with cinematic gameplay that's as fun to watch as it is to play.
Considering she's got guns on her arms and legs, I think they're on to something already.
With the same director from the Devil May Cry series, Hideki Kamiya, the similarities between DMC4 and Bayonetta are very easy to see from gameplay. Defeated enemies drop halo's that look like the blood points from DMC4, but act as currency to upgrade weapons and attacks. Graphically, they look identical, but Bayonetta is still in its early stages and will ultimately be upgraded to look more 2009-ish.''

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.
She also played Chun-Li and Major from Ghost in the Shell
oh shit, i did know that the Major voice actress passed away but i didnt know she voiced bayonetta too
rest in peace
Major is definitely one of my all time favourite anime characters so this is really sad
The creator of the Bayonetta franchise Hideki Kamiya appeared in an interview and discussed the plans for the future of the series.
