Platinum discussing the potential for Bayonetta 3

A portion of a SourceGaming interview with Atsushi Inaba from Platinum Games...

SG: If Bayonetta 3 were to ever happen, would Bayonetta still be the protagonist or would you try to surprise fans?

AI: Maybe there would be a male Bayonetta! (laughs). I would like to make Bayonetta 3. We’re talking within the company even now about what to do. But because we’re constantly talking about it, that actually makes it really hard to say. If we weren’t talking about it, we could just say something random or offhand, you know, but because we’re actually talking about it…Of course, that’s just something that you talk about when you’re making a series – do you want to keep the same protagonist? There’s plenty of precedent for changing protagonists, and so that is something we discuss – do we want to keep the same one, have a different one, add new ones – but that’s certainly not anything I can say for sure at this point.
