Bayonetta

Great!

Hideki Kamiya is the king of stylish Japanese action games... and lord of lousy camera angles. Read Review

Bayonetta is a stylish and cinematic action game, directed by Hideki Kamiya.

A witch with 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.
