Bayonetta 2 ist noch nicht einmal auf dem Markt, da spricht Yusuke Hashimoto bereits über einen dritten Teil und dass er hoffe, das Franchise mit Nintendo fortführen zu können da sie es verstehen ein Game perfekt zu machen.

"Should the opportunity arise I’d definitely like to keep nurturing this franchiseIn terms of nurturing the content of this game, there’s a lot that we learned from Nintendo and if possible we would love to do it again and keep nurturing our child."

Der Entwickler preist Nintendo auch als Publisher, da er dem Team viel kreative Freiheit einräumte und sich nur mit wenigen Vorschlägen einmischten.

"I feel that it’s important to let your creativity flow and Nintendo has been able to provide us with the freedom to create what we had originally envisioned. We were able to have a lot of back-and-forth and they were able to provide objective feedback. I feel that was really good and helped push Bayonetta 2 to even higher quality.

We started out with a fundamental freedom, with Nintendo telling us to go and create the game as we saw fit. But as the game started to take shape and we were starting to put all the pieces together, they were able to point out some things that we didn’t realise ourselves. That was really helpful for us."

Bayonetta 2 erscheint übrigens im Oktober 2014 exklusiv für die Wii U.
