The PlatinumGames blog has once again been updated, this time by background artist Shohei Kameoka. Kameoka breaks down and details one of the backgrounds that will appear in game and outlines just how many layers are involved with that process, here’s an excerpt:

One of my duties for Bayonetta 2 was to take care of all the lighting, water, air, and other indefinite objects in the world environments. Out of all those I spent the most time on lighting, so I thought I’d share a little on what kind of work I did.

In Bayonetta 2, many of the environments have a water theme, so I really wanted to make water in the game look beautiful. I tried to come up with some key concepts for water and worked off of the following: transparent, shining, clean, cool, something you would want to feel, something you would want to dive into. Then I thought about how I could use those words to choose the right lighting for water.

A release of The Wonderful 101’s soundtrack might just be possible. Earlier today, director Hideki Kamiya asked fans to re-tweet one of his messages on Twitter so that he can determine interest. According to data provided by Hiroshi, a soundtrack would take up 5 discs.

Those who pre-order Bayonetta 2 from Amazon Japan will receive a unique bonus. The retailer is handing out a cleaning cloth while supplies last. It’s a bit of an odd bonus, but we can’t complain too much about free stuff!

This past week, Nintendo clarified to us how it intends to offer the first Bayonetta to Bayonetta 2 buyers in North America.

Ultimately, it’s quite simple. Nintendo has confirmed that Bayonetta will be included with the physical release as a separate disc. Meanwhile, those who purchase Bayonetta 2 on the eShop will still get Bayonetta 1 at no additional cost.

The situation is fairly similar in Europe. You can find information about Bayonetta 1/2 for PAL territories here.

Bayonetta 2’s multiplayer will let you play as multiple characters, according to the game’s website.

A notice posted on the European page states:

“Choose from a range of powerful characters, and give angels and demons a beating that’s as brutal as it is beautiful.”

Bayonetta and Jeanne have already been confirmed for the game’s multiplayer known as “Infinite Tag Climax”. Who else might be included?

Seems like this is purely a cosmetic change. When wearing the Daisy costume, Bayonetta acts very much like she does when wearing the Peach outfit.

Thanks to Shashwat Pant for the tip.
