About

A member of an ancient witch clan and possessing powers beyond the comprehension of mere mortals, Bayonetta faces-off against countless angelic enemies, many reaching epic proportions, in a game of 100% pure, unadulterated all-out action. Outlandish finishing moves are performed with balletic grace as Bayonetta flows from one fight to another. With magnificent over-the-top action taking place in stages that are a veritable theme park of exciting attractions, Bayonetta pushes the limits of the action genre, bringing to life its fast-paced, dynamic climax combat.

Storyline

Bayonetta is a witch, having woken up 20 years ago from a casket in the bottom of a secluded lake. In an effort to uncover the truth of her forgotten past, Bayonetta travels to the holy city of Vigrid in Europe, the ancestral home of the Lumen Sages, worshippers of light, and the Umbra Witches, followers of darkness. As she is pitted against a seemingly endless army of angels, including another Umbra Witch named Jeanne, she follows a mysterious voice and is accompanied by suave journalist Luka Redgrave, as well as young and innocent Cereza, whose mysterious appearance may be connected to the mystery behind her lost memories.
