While many companies choose to reveal projects early, sometimes too early, Nintendo it has typically gone the other way and has kept most of its projects shrouded in mystery. Although 2020 did not see many triple A titles for Nintendo Switch, many are hoping that 2021 will finally see the launch of a series of unmissable exclusives for the great N. One of those games in particular is definitely Bayonetta 3. The creator of the series Hideki Kamiya he finally gave fans some hope when he confirmed that development on Bayonetta 3 is going very well, but that for the moment "we should forget that the game has been announced".
Originally announced with a simple ai teaser image The 2017 Game Awards, Bayonetta 3 has strayed so far from the spotlight that fans have begun to wonder over the years if the project was eventually canceled. However, the producer has released some news on the title during the last few days: “I shouldn't say that, but… it's January. Something will come up, right? I think it is correct to expect something to emerge. I'm just saying the year has just begun. I understand that the fans are going crazy! In light of that, my advice is to reset everything and forget about Bayonetta 3. So when something happens, it will be a nice surprise “. It's not the first time Kamiya has hinted at the potential launch of Bayonetta 3 in 2021, so the news itself isn't new.
While this is probably not what fans were hoping to hear, it looks like the decision is out of Kamiya's hands for now. However, the producer still offers some hope, saying it's still January, and suggesting that news of some sort will likely come as the year progresses. After all, 2021 is only just beginning, so it's a fact that new information about the game may come.
