Sega Has Started A Bayonetta Countdown
This past Saturday – April Fool's Day – Sega released an actual 8-bit Bayonetta flash game on Steam. That game leads to a countdown for something Bayonetta-related in about a week.
IGN has a clearer picture of the countdown's background image and it is unmistakably Bayonetta, so perhaps Saturday's flash game is just the start of something else for the franchise. We shall find out soon enough.
Our Take
While the April Fool's game itself is real, I'm not going to make any guess as to what this could be...
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
