Bayonetta series lead 🅰Hideki Kamiya "ca♔n't conceive the Bayonetta series ever ending."

Speaking to in a new interview, PlatinumGames vice president Hideki Kamiya was asked about the future of the Ba☂yonetta series. "I personally can't conceive the Bayonetta series ever ending," Kamiya says, adding "I want to make a Bayonetta 4 and 5, and I intend on pitching them to the company."

Last month in November, Kamiya appeared to confirm that Bayonetta 4 was happening, saying it would be an "澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:unexpected development for everyone." Kamiya's 🍨new comments, however, confirm that the veteran developer hasn't yet pitched the 🅺sequel, so Bayonetta 4 isn't by any means guaranteed.

"We often talk internally about how we could make nine of them," Kamiya says of the Bayonetta games to IGN. "I want people who love the Bayonetta series to believe me when I say: 'I'm not going to do anything that will betray the players,'" the PlatinumG🥂ames head concluded.

The Bayonetta series has been going on for 13 years now, becoming PlatinumGames' longest-running franchise to date. Kamiya directed Bayonetta back in 2009, and wrote the story for Bayonetta 2, five years later in 2014. For 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Bayonetta 3, Kamiya took on a supervising development role, which he'll repeat for 澳洲幸运5😼开奖号码历史查询:Bayonetta ✨Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon, a prequel spin-off which launches next year in Marc꧟h.

Considering Bayonetta 3 had an incredibly prolonged development period, there's no guarantee PlatinumGames will immediately greenlight another game in the action-packed series. There's also been no word from the developer or publisher Nintendo on how the threequel has sold since launch in October, further clouding whether Bayonetta 3 has been a succeꦉss or not, and may one day see another entry.
