Game Overview:

Bayonetta 2 is a action hack and slash video game developed by Platinum Games and produced by Atsushi Inaba. Unlike its predecessor, which was a multiplatform game, Bayonetta 2 is a Nintendo exclusive title.

After Platinum Games’ partnership with Sega failed to produce a sequel for Bayonetta, Nintendo picked up the rights to the IP and funded Bayonetta 2.
