Also on the topic of Bayonetta, PlatinumGames have uploaded a curious series of videos to their YouTube page. Therein, a few of the witch’s more memorable lines from Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2 are repeated three times each.

According to Platinum’s blog, it’s meant to serve as an English lesson to their Japanese audience. However, given how each clip is repeated thrice, some fans are hopeful it’s a tease for a third Bayonetta. Personally, I don’t think it’s convincing evidence of a sequel being in development, but I’ll be thrilled if one is. After all, you…
