When Bayonetta 2 was first announced many were less excited more livid at the fact it was a Wii U exclusive. Founder of PlatinumGames, Hideki Kamiya, went on Twitter to give a rough timeline about Bayonetta's survival and greenlit sequels.
The creator of Bayonetta argues that the inclusion of the multiverse didn't come out of nowhere and clarifies the ending of Bayonetta 3.
My issue with the games is that because each one is a different Universe you feel like you don't have a good development arc for the characters as each game is a reset. It felt like a cheap way to start a new game without writing around what you wrote or how you ended things in the last game.
It's a concept that's made the games overall story more confusing then it should be.
You have to be fair with them , knowing that the first game was multiplatform under platinum and sega . second& third are both exclusive Nintendo games . I’m guessing some kind of trade off had to be done for the exclusivity deal with one of the demands being to create a new storyline for the Nintendo games . That came with new lore , new characters and new stakes . As of recently it is said that platinum games re-acquired the rights to bayonetta from sega/Nintendo . I can expect the next game to be more akin to the original game and follow that storyline .
that report is a rumour completely. As of now Bayonetta is still owned by Sega with Nintendo's involvement for future entries.
NE: "We look at five games that benefit the most from the Nintendo Switch 2's new Handheld Mode Boost feature that was recently added."
Nintendo Switch games that haven't received patches are still getting performance and loading boosts across the board on Switch 2.
We already heard this story before
Nothing new
Bayonetta 2 gets green light from Sega but then problems arise at Sega so Nintendo stepped in to publish and in return Nintendo also gets a port of the first game. Nintendo and PG liked working together so Bayonetta 3 is also being published by Nintendo.
I'd love to see Nintendo help PG finish and publish Scalebound since MS walked away.
