Bayonetta 2 director and producer working on new project, series’ future teased
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 29 Comments
Like Famitsu, 4Gamer published a massive interview with nearly 150 Japanese developers as they reflect topics such as the past year, what lies ahead for 2015, and more.
Bayonetta 2 producer Akiko Kuroda was one of the people 4Gamer included in its article. Kuroda confirmed that she’s hard at work on a new project, and also seemed to tease the development of something related to Bayonetta in 2015.
Here are Kuroda’s full words:
“I have started working on the next project, but it looks like the announcement will come later. In any case, I think that it would be nice if something Bayonetta-related was also developed in 2015, so please pay attention to the continuation of Bayonetta!”
Bayonetta 2 director Hashimoto Yusuke also mentioned a new project. However, he was less specific with his words.
