Bayonetta 2[a] is a 2014 action-adventure hack and slash video game developed by PlatinumGames and published by Nintendo.[6] It is the sequel to the 2009 game Bayonetta, and was directed by Yusuke Hashimoto and produced by Atsushi Inaba, Akiko Kuroda, and Hitoshi Yamagami, under supervision by series creator Hideki Kamiya.[7]
Bayonetta 2 was announced in a Nintendo Direct presentation on September 13, 2012.[8] Unlike the Sega-published Bayonetta, which was a multiplatform release for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, a publishing deal with Nintendo meant that Bayonetta 2 released as a platform-exclusive for Wii U. The titular character, Bayonetta, sports a new costume and hairstyle and the game features a new two-player mode.[9] The game is the second Bayonetta product to receive Japanese voiceovers, using the same cast that voiced the Bayonetta: Bloody Fate anime film by Gonzo.[10]
Bayonetta 2 was released in September 2014 in Japan and October 2014 for the rest of the world. The Special and First Print Editions also included a Wii U port of the original Bayonetta game.[11]
Bayonetta 2 received widespread critical acclaim, with praise for the combat system and overall improvements from the first game. A Nintendo Switch version was released in February 2018. A sequel, Bayonetta 3, was released on October 28, 2022.
