PlatinumGames has opened a brand new Twitter account for its Japanese fans. To celebrate, Yusuke Hashimoto drew new Bayonetta art. Hashimoto is not only the director of Bayonetta 2, but also the producer on the series’ first game.

Based on the art and activity on the Twitter page, fans are speculating about Platinum’s potential plans for Switch. Some believe that the red and blue colors are a reference to the Joy-Con controllers. Platinum liked a tweet about the connection… and some other messages about Bayonetta and Switch.

Of course, this could very well amount to nothing. We do know though that Platinum is involved with Switch in some fashion.

While playing through the Trial of the Sword challenge featured in Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s new DLC, Sharkystheshotty stumbled into a bizarre area. He managed to enter this strange section of the world by clipping through a wall.

As for how he did it, Sharkystheshotty said the following:

“Was on trial three on the Medium trials and flew up near the chest on the floating platform and just went through a wall. Couldn’t get back in.. so I didn’t make it.

I don’t really remember exactly where but I flew up with my glider on trial 3 on the Medium trials near where the floating chest was on the wall by the corner. Best I can do.”

We’re not really sure where Sharkystheshotty ended up. It could be a test area, unused material, or something else entirely. Regardless, it’s certainly an odd sight to behold.
