The screen-shaking side-kicks you can now call on to assist you in battle are such a fantastic fit, such a perfectly realised addition to the madness, that we honestly can't imagine a Bayo game without them going forward. We had our concerns that Bayonetta 3's Infernal Demons, those great big showy monstrosities you can now summon to fight by your side, could shift the balance away from the fantastically tight combos and Witch Time magic that's made these games such an endless joy to return to repeatedly over the years, but we're actually getting to have our cake and eat it here as this is the best this series' combat has ever been. What PlatinumGames has served up here is a threequel that takes the delicious core combat of the first two Bayonetta games, that finely balanced masterwork of considered combos and carefully timed dodges, and adds a bunch of new mechanics that raise the whole thing up to an entirely new level without the slightest negative affect on what makes this series feel so fantastic in the first place. Captured on Nintendo Switch (Handheld/Undocked) We didn't dare believe that Bayonetta 3 could live up to the showstopping highs of its superlative predecessors, but within just the first hour or so of this third helping of absolute chaos, we knew we were in for something truly special. It's been a very long wait, eight whole years in total, since we last stepped into the gun-strapped shoes of everyone's favourite angel hunter, but she's finally back and faster, better, and stronger than ever. With Bayonetta 3, PlatinumGames' series gets to take its place very high up this most exclusive of lists, as this latest outing for their unstoppable Umbra Witch makes for a pretty much untouchable hack-and-slash trilogy. Additionally, the tweet highlights four elements Cheshire can become imbued with, which gives him many possibilities going forward.What's the greatest pure action game series of all time? Is it Ninja Gaiden? Max Payne? Devil May Cry or something else entirely? Whatever your own personal preferences in this regard, one certainty is that there are only a handful of franchises which have truly managed to knock it out of the park with regards to serving up a nigh-on perfect parade of absolute bangers. Another tweet highlighted how Cheshire could take on “elemental cores” to take on puzzles and enemies alike. That implies we could see Morgana at the beginning of the game or meet her very early on once Cereza enters the forest.Īs shown in the last trailer for Bayonetta Origins, you must control Cereza and Cheshire to fight enemies and solve puzzles. That’s what Cheshire is for.Īnother key thing in the tweet is the line about Morgana inviting the “practically orphaned” Cereza to live with her. That would also explain how Cereza can use some abilities in the game, but she won’t be able to attack foes herself. Yet here, at least one Witch was fine with her and willing to train her in the arts. The “fusion” of those traits made Cereza a kind of “taboo,” and thus, she was seen as an outcast by many and even locked up when she grew older. For those that don’t recall, the first game highlighted how Cereza was born from the “forbidden romance” of a Lumen Sage and an Umbra Witch. First, it’s never been stated how Bayonetta learned her Umbra Witch abilities. There are multiple reasons why this revelation is so important.
