With the release of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Bayonetta 3, Bayonetta is now Pl﷽atinumGames longest-running franchise. It’s also one of its most successful, with plenty of sales despite being restricted to the Nintendo Switch. It even won The Game Award for Best Action Game just last week.
So it comes aꦯs little surprise t🎐hat Bayonetta 3 director Hideki Kamiya wants to continue the Bayonetta series in perpetuity. In a new interview with , Kamiya stated he intends to make both Bayonetta 4 and Bayonetta 5, but Bayonetta won’t stop there.
"I personally can't conceive the Bayonetta series ever ending," said Kamiya. "I want to make a Bayonetta 4 and Bayonetta 5, and I intend on pitching them to the company. We often talk internally about how we could make nine of them."
Bayonetta 4 might already be in development. Just a few weeks after the release of Bayonetta 3, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Kamiya took to Twitter to address the game's 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:controversial ending and simultaneously tease a sequel. "I thought it was nothing unexpected, but the last part of Bayonetta 3 doesn't seem to have been conveyed to anyone correctly, so I think Bayonetta 4 will be unexpected for everyone," he said. "I'll say this now because I'm sure that when Bayonetta 4 comes out, there will be a lot of you saying [we completely rewrote the ending]."
Kamiya once again seemed to address Bayonetta 3's ending in his discussion with IGN. "One of our most basic values at PlatinumGames is that we make games for players," explained Kamiya. "However, I've started to notice that as a series like Bayonetta and other game series go on, what players want has started to diverge from what its developers are putting out. I've always believed that developers need to have their own convictions as creators when they make games, but I've started to feel that more than ever."
That said, Kamiya also stated he wouldn't "betray" the players' trust with upcoming Bayonetta games, which won't just be sequels. PlatinumGames announced 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:ꦛBayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon at The Game Awards, an action-adventure title that explores the origins of Bayonetta. Kamiya said he'd like to do even more spinoffs, including one that features Jeanne.
"It's an established part of the character Jeanne that she also works as a superhero named Cutie J," he said. "I'd even like to make a spin-off for that."
