Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon demo released worldwide, new trailers

Ahead of launch, a demo for Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon has been released. This can be downloaded in all major regions right now.

The demo contains the first two chapters from the game. Additionally, players can transfer their save data over to the full release.

Here’s an overview of the title:

Long before this trainee of the dark arts would come to be called Bayonetta, she took a fateful journey into the forbidden Avalon Forest. Alongside her was Cheshire, her very first demon, possessing Cereza’s stuffed toy. Play as both Cereza and Cheshire and search through the treacherous forest to look for the power to save Cereza’s mother.

Control both Cheshire and Cereza to solve puzzles and fend off fiends

Any good story has a lesson about teamwork, no? In this tale, Cereza and Cheshire coordinate their efforts to fight faeries and solve puzzles. Use the Left Joy-Con controller to move Cereza and bind enemies with her magic. With the Right Joy-Con controller, move Cheshire to slash and chomp foes.

Turn the pages of Cereza’s story as you explore the enchanting, storybook-inspired Avalon Forest

Avalon Forest is just as beautiful as it is beastly. Each new area looks like it has been painted carefully by hand. Fully narrated story scenes are told through the vibrantly illustrated pages of a storybook. Be sure to stop and smell the roses in this whimsical world, but don’t tarry too long—the forest has a taste for lost witches.

Other than the demo, we have a couple of new trailers for Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon below. The first is a story trailer. The second is a more general overview, but is only available in Japanese currently – we’ll swap in the English version if and when it’s available.

Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon launches for Switch on March 17, 2023. You can pick up the demo from the eShop.
