Platinum gives messages on Bayonetta 2, Wonderful 101
Yusuke Hashimoto and Hideki Kamiya prepared a few comments about Bayonetta 2 and The Wonderful 101 on the studio’s official Japanese blog. Messages from both can be found below.
Yusuke Hashimoto – Director, Bayonetta 2
This game presents a new feature where you can summon demons while repeating powerful attacks, called “Umbran Climax”, new situations as presented in Sky Battles, and it’s not just comprised of overturning bad and good, ‘Angels VS Demons’ theme, but features stages in the spirit world filled with squirming devils and new demons that provide you with an over flowing feeling of ‘climax’.
Please anticipate an evolved non-stop climactic action game in Bayonetta 2
Hideki Kamiya – Supervisor, Bayonetta 2
What was everyone’s reaction to seeing Bayonetta with a short hair for the first time? We’d been thinking about this idea since finishing development on the first game, to bring out a new charm for the fashionable Bayonetta by changing not only greatly altering her costume, but also her hair style.
This lively hair style was chosen from many ideas to match with the now more dynamic action scenes in the new game and we felt that it would fascinate many players and provide them with a new excitement for the character.
I hope you look forward to an even more bewitching and violent Bayonetta than the first game.
Hideki Kamiya – Director, The Wonderful 101
The conception of The Wonderful 101 began with the idea that I wanted to control many heroes at once while playing. These heroes will literally join together to form large fists to fight enemies and ladders and bridges to overcome dangerous paths. I hope that these brave heroes will light a fire in your hearts and bring out the spirit of a hero within yourself.
The joint powers of the heroes that we have shown off so far are just a small selection of what is in the game. From now, we will begin to introduce more and more, little by little, so please be on the look out. The hero who will save the world is you.
