Could Bayonetta 3 Not Star Bayonetta?
Bayonetta is one of those fan-favorite franchises that people can’t help but love. It’s got a sassy main character, over-the-top action, and is absolutely beautiful to look at. Yet, there has only been two games in the series, and fans are wondering if a third will ever arise. The game started out on Xbox and Playstation, then got moved to the Nintendo Wii U for Bayonetta 2. So if a third game, where would it even go?
Well, the series is at least being talked about still at developer Platinum Games, who noted what could move the series forward, including a change in main character:
“I would like to make Bayonetta 3. We’re talking within the company even now about what to do,” notes Atsushi Inaba to SourceGaming. “But because we’re constantly talking about it, that actually makes it really hard to say.
Of course, that’s just something that you talk about when you’re making a series – do you want to keep the same protagonist? There’s plenty of precedent for changing protagonists, and so that is something we discuss – do we want to keep the same one, have a different one, add new ones…”

Well, then it simply wouldn’t be a Bayonetta game anymore. Devil May Cry started out as a sequel to something else.
Unless they want to call it “Bayonetta Minus Bayonetta.”
