Videogamer writes: "This is a completely different game from Devil May Cry," insists producer Yusuke Hashimoto of Platinum Games, via a translator, as Bayonetta dodges, swivels and cartwheels her way through angel-mask wearing monsters. "It is in the same genre, so there may be comparisons made. Devil May Cry is continuously evolving. This is an evolution within that genre but it is a very different game, so it is not a continuation or an answer to Devil May Cry."
I've got to say, I'm not sure I believe Hashimoto-san. Either something has been lost in translation here at SEGA's behind closed doors booth at E3 2008 or Platinum Games has had a change of heart. And that's because, back in May, when Tom saw Bayonetta for the first time, Hideki Kamiya, Devil May Cry's legendary creator, said this:"
Creator of Bayonetta, Devil May Cry, Okami, Viewtiful Joe, and Wonderful 101 comments on how they're all part of the same universe.
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
