Bayonetta 2 is a Stylish Action hack and slash game developed by PlatinumGames and published by Nintendo for the Wii U and Switch, with Sega, the franchise owners, serving as advisor. It is the sequel to the 2009 game, Bayonetta, and is directed by Yusuke Hashimoto and produced by Atsushi Inaba, under supervision by series creator Hideki Kamiya. It was announced on September 13, 2012, and was made a Wii U exclusive due to Nintendo's financial backing of the game, even though the company did not request that it be exclusive. Check out the game's first teaser. At E3 2014's Nintendo Direct, it was announced that the release would also come bundled with an updated version of the original Bayonetta, although a standalone version was made available in February 2016. Bayonetta 2, along with the original Bayonetta, were released for the Nintendo Switch on February 16, 2018 with the additions of local co-op and amiibo support.The sequel begins with Bayonetta and Jeanne bringing the pain to the angels of Paradiso as usual. Unfortunately, things take a turn for the worse when one of Bayonetta's summons breaks free of her control and attacks her, leading to Jeanne sacrificing herself to save her and her soul being dragged into Inferno. Bayonetta immediately sets out for the legendary mountain Fimbulventr, said to house mythical gates to both Paradiso and Inferno, in a race against time to rescue Jeanne before her soul is lost forever. Unlike her first adventure, the balance between the trinity of realities has come undone, causing angels and demons alike to get in her way. In the midst of the chaos, Bayonetta befriends a bratty youth named Loki, who is struggling to reach the top of the mountain for reasons even he's not sure of. Loki possesses mysterious powers and a cloudy memory that may be the key to saving the world.Following the announcement of the Nintendo Switch ports of Bayonetta 1 and 2 due out for February 16, 2018, Bayonetta 3 was announced exclusively for the Switch.Warning! Every major plot detail from the first game is a Late-Arrival Spoiler in this one. As such, those old spoilers will be left unmarked. Please check the first game beforehand to avoid spoiling yourself. | |

Cherry Tapping | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_10b6b5f7 | comment |
Cherry Tapping: Happens in universe at the end of the final boss battle. You're fighting an omnipotent god who storywise and gameplay wise is even stronger than the previous game's final boss, who had to be killed by punching them into the sun. The twist is, after a long, Nintendo Hard battle involving giant flashy arenas, giant satellites, giant lasers, and giant satellites firing giant lasers, in the end you end up weakening and depowering the boss so much, that after you send them flying through the air with your final attack (canonically stronger than the one in the first game), they keep going until they fall into the mouth of Gommorah... the weakest summon in the first game, and the first boss of the sequel. It eats him. Talk about humiliation. | |

Video-Game Flamethrowers Suck | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_10c393f5 | comment |
Video Game Flamethrowers Suck: the Undine are magical flamethrowers that can be Dual Wield in the titular character's hands or heels with both Kill It with Fire and Kill It with Ice settings. Generally though, its just a very average weapon, the ice-setting is really the only worthwhile option because it can encase enemies in ice, and even then, it can only do so semi-reliably on smaller, weaker enemies. That being said, the leg version can be useful for closing out combos with Wicked Weaves, but there are just better options in the game to choose from. | |

Multi-Mook Melee | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_119dc902 | comment |
Multi-Mook Melee: The Witch Trials, which can be played after completing the game. Each of these chapters consist of a series of fights against increasingly powerful enemies, and there are extra perks to further push the challenge: Each Trial's difficulty is predetermined, so while the first three chapters are reasonable for the casual player, the last two will a lot harder since they're set on Infinite Climax difficulty. Secondly, no continues can be used, so if Bayonetta's HP is depleted just once, it's Game Over and the current chapter has to be restarted. | |

Stop Motion | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_119ea1fd | comment |
The first game had numerous pseudo-Stop Motion cutscenes in the form of grainy-film frame-slipping sequences. Here, the same technique is instead used through the hands of a clock, with both the frame and the images rendered clearly. | |

Faustian Rebellion | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_11e55c12 | comment |
Faustian Rebellion: Zigzagged. The titular character is a witch who made a Deal with the Devil with a demon named Madama Butterfly in exchange for demonic powers and command over the forces of Inferno. Due to events in the the first game, several demons, even a few who has served her before, turn against her, forcing her to kill them in self defense. However, some other demons are still loyal to her, including Madama Butterfly herself. | |

Antepiece | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_13dcb20b | comment |
Antepiece: The segment where you ride on Diomedes opens up with a pair of static Inferno-trees to avoid, one to duck under and one to jump over. The game even pauses for a moment to allow extra time for you to make the right imput. These serve as simple obstacles to get players used to the new controls before putting them in to a more complex course. | |

Unexpected Gameplay Change | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_1467a30c | comment |
Unexpected Gameplay Change: Chapter 12 has you riding on Diomedes to chase after Loki and the Masked Lumen. Chapter 14 lets you pilot an Umbran Armor Humongous Mecha, although a lot of the core gameplay stays the same. Chapter 16 starts off with Bayonetta, Jeanne, and Balder on a fighter jet towards Fimbulventr, in a segment similar to the Space Harrier segment from the first game. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Demons are not necessarily on the side of Bayonetta this time around, on account of a shift in the Balance of Good and Evil after the events of the prior game. The game starts with one of the heroines Not Quite Dead, the need for an Orphean Rescue as a result, and culminates in a trip to Hell itself. That's not even bringing into account the story of the Masked Lumen, a younger Balder, whose tale is much sadder than any in the previous game. Altogether, the plot is more horrific, serious, and at times depressing than the last game, even though it does have rays of hope shining through. | |

Your Mom: Bayonetta's longer taunt in the game has her tell the enemy "If you need to learn how to talk to a lady, ask your mum", just like her creator. This taunt even made it into her guest appearance in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. | |

Order Versus Chaos | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_1a237409 | comment |
Order Versus Chaos: Subtly shown in the comparison between Paradiso angels and Inferno demons. Like in the first game, the angels are introduced with their names, their rank and their position in the order of angelic hierarchy. The demons, meanwhile, are merely introduced with their names and moniker, nothing more, suggesting an utter lack of ranking or organization. | |

Mission-Pack Sequel | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_1a2dc1fd | comment |
Mission-Pack Sequel: Bayonetta 2 plays damn near identically to the original game, with some token changes and an entirely new cast of enemies except for the levels taking place in the Witch Hunt, which brings back almost the entire slew of enemies from the original game. Most of the techniques and items Bayonetta can purchase are the same as the first game, and clearing the game even allows purchasing a costume that unlocks her original moveset. This even extends to the plot itself, which reuses many plot points and elements from the first game's story. | |

Cruel and Unusual Death | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_1e584efa | comment |
Cruel and Unusual Death: Bayonetta's new Torture Attacks for angel enemies forego the 'ancient witch punishment' motif (i.e. spanking an angel into a guillotine), in favor of Rule of Cool kills like making an angel run a treadmill with a thresher at the back. The old ones show up during the Witch Hunt chapters on account of the old angels being around. She's got new ones that work on demons too, but these don't involve devices; they involve summoning demons that are still loyal to her (Madama Butterfly is one), who do the job just as well, and just as cool and unusually brutal (such as Malicious getting Eaten Alive by Carnage until it explodes). | |

Bag of Spilling | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_28104b90 | comment |
Bag of Spilling: Nothing that was previously obtained from the first game is retained in this onenote Except for Panther Within, which was obtained through the game's progression rather than bought at the Gates of Hell, which is odd since every technique and accessory is exactly the same from the first game but must be re-purchased from Rodin (as if canon assumes Bayonetta never bought anything from Rodin in the original game). Even the Scarborough Fair, Bayonetta's magical guns from the first game gotten automatically, are missing in exchange for a quartet of mundane .45s just to justify the switch to the new Love Is Blue set (although Scarborough Fair can be obtained if the player beats the game on 2nd Climax and purchases the classic costume pack). | |

| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_295087bf | comment |
Sloth. Don't let the name fool you: it constantly gets in your face and hacks you to ribbons at an unparalleled speed, refusing to let you take a breath. They're also likely to interrupt combos on them by countering or dodging, and they're very unpredictable in their movements. They actually bear a lot of similarities to the first game's Grace and Glory in this sense, though unlike them, if they hit you, they taunt you by pointing a sword at you. Which they will be doing a lot. | |

Revolvers Are Just Better: There's Secret Character Rosa, Bayonetta's mother, and her revolvers called Unforgiven, which she wields on both her hands and feet. They are basically a quartet of hand cannons, and do three times as much damage as any other weapon in the game, balanced out by the fact their wielder has very low defense and is a Glass Cannon. | |

Limit Break | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_2afb1a9 | comment |
Limit Break: Bayonetta's new Umbran Climax ability can be used when she has a full magic gauge. It's somewhat comparable to the Serious Mode from the first game (where every attack is accompanied by Madama Butterfly), but instead of straight jab Wicked Weaves, her moves are backed up by the new Infernal Weave, which has much, much more combo potential. These summons uniquely accompany whatever weapon Bayonetta's swinging at the time with a different demon, and the wide swings and smashes of the move can easily rack up multiple hits on a single enemy. It restores her health, too! | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: You can unlock Rodin as a playable character in multiplayer, and he kicks ass, but he's slow and doesn't have many combos. Since the objective of multiplayer is to rack up combo points, it's difficult to win with him. Balder also counts to a lesser extent. His ranged attacks are much slower and prevent him from moving, making it harder to rack up a combo, and he can't use any accessories that might help mitigate the problem. He's also at a disadvantage in aerial/underwater fights due to lacking a Crow or Snake Within equivalent. Plus Light Speed's different visuals make the countdown indicator harder to keep track of. | |

Same Plot Sequel | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_2df3589 | comment |
Same Plot Sequel: Despite having a different initial premise than its predecessor (in the first game, Bayonetta investigates her past while in the second she tries to find a way to rescue her friend Jeanne from Hell), the game ends up rehashing several plot points and scenes. In both game, Bayonetta wanders in an old city with ties with the supernatural (Noatun and Vigrid), stumbles upon a mysterious child who's being targeted by the ennemies (Cereza and Loki) and regularly fights with a Evil Counterpart (Jeanne and the Masked Lumen) who turns to be a pawn of the Omnicidal Maniac Big Bad (Father Balder and Loptr). At the end of both games, the Big Bad uses the Eyes of the World to summon a gigantic mass destroying deity (Jubileus and Aesir). Bayonetta and her redeemed rival defeat it by summoning an even bigger one (Queen Of Sheba and Omne). | |

Glass Cannon | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_2f253c94 | comment |
Glass Cannon: Jeanne makes a return, but Secret Character Rosa easily surpasses her as the glass cannon in this game, as her weapons do three times as much damage by default as Bayonetta's attacks, plus her Super Mode puts her into the Mini-Mecha Umbran Armor which can devastate enemies with staggering, high damage combos. However, she also takes three times as much damage from enemies. | |

You Can See Me?: Loki says this to Bayonetta. She explains that it's because they're both in Purgatorio, the dimension that exists between the Trinity of Realities (and where those inside are invisible to those outside, and vice versa). The boy doesn't seem to understand, as he is completely ignorant to the mechanics of most things, being an Amnesiac Hero. Luka managed to get some glasses that allow him to see people in Purgatorio by giving Rodin authentic sake in the midst of a Japanophile stint, much to Bayonetta's surprise. | |

Very soon after starting the game, the co-op Competitive Multiplayer, Tag Climax, is unlocked, allowing a player to fight with others online. This can spoil the unlockable characters available in the game. While Jeanne is an obvious one, it spoils Rodin, Balder, and Rosa, the last two being major spoilers for the game. | |

Body to Jewel | |

Body to Jewel: This is invoked by the 'Orbs', a demonic currency as opposed to the Holy Halo currency Bayonetta usually collects that looks like crystalline demon blood. However this is only invoked, as they are never referred to as blood, but as a rare metal containing the essence of an infernal's Life Energy. | |

There's also the many Journals that can be collected throughout the levels, but beyond getting all of them being a requirement for getting one of the Umbran Tears, all they do is give backstory for characters, history, and locations in the game. | |

Whether it happens in a Noatun courtyard or an Insidious's insides, don't expect much to remain intact after those two duke it out. The latter even killed said Insidious from its insides. | |

Stable Time Loop: Loptr needs both of the Eyes of the World in order to attain godhood. The only problem is that Balder, who had the Right Eye, died at the end of Bayonetta. To get around this, he brings Balder from 500 years ago to the present day. After Loptr is defeated, his soul tries to escape, only for Balder to absorb it, return to his original time, become the villain that he was in Bayonetta, and set in motion the events of both games. This leads to his death, which leads to Loptr bringing his past self to the present, and so on. | |

Dragged Off to Hell: Same deal as the first game, except Jeanne's soul is taken away this way, forcing Bayonetta to mount a rescue attempt. An inversion appears in Tag Climax. If all of Balder's health is depleted, then creepy heavenly hands appear out of a cloud and hold him in place, similarly to the Umbra Witches and the portal to Inferno. If time runs out or the other player dies, he is dragged up into the cloud. | |

Sequel Escalation | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_391d6577 | comment |
Sequel Escalation: The first game already had large-scale, intense fights against giant enemies, but the second one gives a first boss from the Prologue that could pass as a Final Boss in another game. Bayonetta goes from exclusively fighting forces of Paradiso to fighting both infernal demons and the god of the human world (which is a distinct plane from heaven or hell) in addition to both old and new angels, and we finally get to see what Inferno looks like after the first game never revealed it. The Mirror Boss fights are a lot flashier: Jeanne from 1 summoned portions of demons for her battles, while the Masked Lumen in 2 summons the bosses in full-scale as they fight with Bayonetta's own demon summons in the background. | |

Boring, but Practical: The game gives you all sorts of flashy weapons, but the ones that remain the most consistently useful throughout are your basic Love is Blue pistols. They attack quickly, do reliable damage, and are the one weapon that seems to be effective against a difficult recurring boss. Also, your basic punch-kick-punch combo is the quickest, most effective way to get a Wicked Weave out. | |

To Hell and Back: The primary driving force behind the initial plot is for the titular character to find the Gates of Hell to enter Inferno to reclaim the soul of her dear friend and fellow Umbra Witch, Jeanne... and then manage to get back out again. Getting into Inferno takes up the majority of the game, although getting out of Inferno ends up being a lot easier, happening by accident as a result of elements from the secondary storyline in the game. | |

| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_40ff3c3b | comment |
Sensible Heroes, Skimpy Villains: Inverted with Bayonetta and the Masked Lumen: Bayo's Godiva Hair outfit means she's left near-naked a lot of the time, whereas the Lumen Sage doesn't show any skin at all until he is unmasked. Played straight with Loki and his Evil Counterpart / Evil Twin Loptr in the present day: Loki at least dresses like a Street Urchin, while Loptr only wears a cloak, which he even ditches once he becomes Aesir leaving him with only a metal thong. | |

Important Haircut: Subverted Trope. Bayonetta and Jeanne both sport new hairdos, but it's not important to the plot at all. According to the developers, they just felt like having new hairstyles at the time the plot happens, like anybody else. However, her hair eventually plays a small role when Bayonetta goes back in time and fights alongside her mother, removing the Generation Xerox effect from the first game. | |

Scenery Porn: The environments have received a very noticeable upgrade from the first game, ditching the subdued brown palette for brighter colors. Noatun◊ in particular looks lovely compared to Vigrid, being a golden city surrounded by and partially submerged in water. The gates of Inferno and Paradiso also both look stunning in their own way, and this isn't even getting into many of the major boss fights. | |

Wham Line | |

The first level manages to deliver a Wham Line via Boss Subtitles. After beating the presumed boss of the level (Belief), he turns out to be a Mini-Boss, as Bayonetta finishes him off with Gomorrah, but then loses control of the summon. For the first time, we get boss subtitles introducing a demon, complete with a darker-looking book and font. Devourer of the Divine: Gomorrah. | |

Nostalgia Level: Played with. Chapters XIII to XV take place in Vigrid, the first game's setting, and as such feature familiar locales, enemies, and music. The twist is that Bayonetta is revisiting these locations during the witch hunts from 500 years ago and fights alongside Rosa, who also adds to the nostalgia by using Bayonetta's animations from the first game and having a similar design. | |

The Goomba: Similar to the role the Affinity angels played in the first game, Acceptance are the first angels encountered by Bayonetta in the prologue chapter, and are really just there for the player to practice her combos as well as get a feel for evading and activating Witch Time from their easily telegraphed spear attacks. That being said, they do get a bit harder to deal with once they start trading out their spears for bow harps and attacking from a distance. | |

Enemy Mine: In a villainous twist, the Jetfighter Assault level has angels and demons are trying to stop Bayonetta and Balder from reaching Fimbulventr. Bayo then encourages Balder to do the same, which continues until Loptr and Aesir are dealt with. | |

Bribing Your Way to Victory | |

Bribing Your Way to Victory: The Switch version of the game introduced amiibo support. With the right figurines, a bunch of alternate costumes, Nintendo-themed or otherwise, as well as the Chain Chomp weapon, can be unlocked automatically. Plus, scanning the maximum of 32 amiibo per day will net you a bunch of halos and items, meaning you’ll be able to buy everything in no time, and you’ll always have a good supply of lollipops whenever you’re in a jam. | |

Chainsaw Good: One of Bayonetta's new weapons is Salamandra, a set of chainsaws that can be attached to the hands or feet, used to shred through enemies or to skate around like with Odette in the first game. Buy the retail version, and you get to quadruple wield chainsaws. | |

Heck, even playing the demo will spoil part of the first game's story, namely Jeanne survives the events of the first game and becomes Bayonetta's friend, and that Bayonetta is Cereza after She Is All Grown Up. | |

Golden Snitch: Can happen in Tag Climax due to the wager system. Each verse's victor is determined by the highest combo score, but after six Verse Cards are complete, the victor of the match is determined by halo count. Winning five rounds might not matter if the sixth one had a 5000-halo bet at a x10.0 multiplier. | |

Demoted to Dragon: The Big Bad of this game, Loptr/Aesir, tricks Balder, the big bad of the first game, into serving him by making him think Loki, Loptr's good half, was the one who killed his wife. However, the Balder in the sequel was brought to the present via Time Travel, and is not the same Father Balder from the first game, at least not until the end of the second game. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation: After beating the game, you unlock the ability to play Jeanne - except it doesn't change anything during cutscenes, leading to moments where Jeanne declares she's going to save Jeanne, or Jeanne fighting an infernal for Jeanne's soul. The same thing happens after you beat the game on 3rd Climax and unlock Rosa, Bayonetta's mother and Balder's wife, leading to moments where Balder is trying to kill his wife to avenge his wife's death, or Rosa going back in time to fight with herself, and calling herself "mummy". | |

Death World | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_63557923 | comment |
Death World: Following up the horrific world of Paradiso in the first game, there's now the lovely world of Inferno. Naturally, as a Fire and Brimstone Hell, it is far from hospitable. The easiest ways for a mortal to get there are to venture to the top of the sacred mountain Fimbulvetr, or venture through an obstacle course of floating ruins under a subterranean ocean. If you get there, you'll be witness to hordes of incredibly powerful demons that even the strongest Umbra Witches in the world have trouble against. Attractions include a constantly-shifting living forest inhabited by soul-eating nagas capable of turning you into a helpless child, fire-breathing spiders, demons forced to eat their siblings to survive, and colossal dragon-like demons; giant rivers of boiling blood home to mile-long centipedes; an enormous tornado wrapped in thorny tentacles; and even the ground can turn out to be a giant manta ray that can hold you in its guts for all eternity. Bayonetta sure doesn't stick around here for long. | |

Arm Cannon: The game's release on Wii U made references to other Nintendo franchises quite inevitable. Among the unlockable costumes available is Samus Aran's Power Suit. When she uses her basic gun attack, the suit's arm transforms into the familiar arm cannon. It uses the classic sound effects from Super Metroid, and comes complete with a powerful Charge Shot that's almost as strong as one of Bayonetta's own Wicked Weave attacks. | |

Shockwave Stomp: Rodin often attacks by creating a large wave from stomping on the ground. In the game's main story, he does this against groups of demons attacking him and Bayonetta, and each stomp is capable of killing all the demons instantly. He also uses that attack when he's fought as a Superboss, but thankfully it's not an instant-kill there. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
The very aptly-named Resentment, the only enemy in the game with an instant-death attack. It achieves this by casting a long-range attack that turns Bayonetta into her younger self from the first game, then crawling up to her and swallowing her whole. Bayonetta is nearly helpless in this form, and is done for if Resentment was next to her when it attacked. There are thankfully only a few of them in the main story mode to fight, but one optional fight has you dealing with two of them in a cramped arena. Activating Umbran Climax will cut the transformation short, but if you don't have enough magic to activate it, you should hope your dodging skills are up to the task! On top of that, it can grab you and force you to wiggle the left stick to get out, Dead Rising-style. Constantly having to stop what you're doing to have to shake the left stick is surprisingly unenjoyable! | |

Bayonetta's mother, Rosa, can also be unlocked by beating the game on 3rd Climax, the second hardest difficulty in the game. Two more characters can be unlocked in the online co-op mode, Tag Climax, through randomly being challenged by them during play, Lumen Sage, Balder, and Rodin, although these two can only be used on the co-op mode and not during normal gameplay. | |

| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_740f59b4 | comment |
Color-Coded for Your Convenience: With the introduction of demon enemies and the Big Bad being part of the Human World as opposed to Paradiso or Inferno, the game gives a color scheme to each of the three realms. Paradiso is associated with gold and white, Inferno with red and purple, and the Human World with blue. This can be seen in the Witch Trials, where the sky is a different color to reflect the enemies fought in a given mission. (While waves with mixes of enemies in the fifth Witch Trial use a black, starry night sky.) | |

Gameplay Ally Immortality: Rosa, Balder, and Rodin are all invulnerable when they're accompanying you, and the latter can one-shot every enemy that he touches. Loki isn't, but fights on lower difficulties will likely end before his health becomes an issue anyway. | |

The War Sequence | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_78ad42bd | comment |
The War Sequence: The game gets in on the action close to the end when Bayonetta gets transported 500 years into the past to the conclusion of the Witch Hunts. It consists of two levels: the first is fighting your way through the angelic army attacking Vigrid with a fancy suit of Umbran Armor, the second represents the last stand of the Umbran Witches against the overwhelming numbers of angels. | |

Boss in Mook Clothing | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_7b7965dd | comment |
Boss in Mook Clothing: Sloth. Don't let the name fool you: it constantly gets in your face and hacks you to ribbons at an unparalleled speed, refusing to let you take a breath. They're also likely to interrupt combos on them by countering or dodging, and they're very unpredictable in their movements. They actually bear a lot of similarities to the first game's Grace and Glory in this sense, though unlike them, if they hit you, they taunt you by pointing a sword at you. Which they will be doing a lot. The very aptly-named Resentment, the only enemy in the game with an instant-death attack. It achieves this by casting a long-range attack that turns Bayonetta into her younger self from the first game, then crawling up to her and swallowing her whole. Bayonetta is nearly helpless in this form, and is done for if Resentment was next to her when it attacked. There are thankfully only a few of them in the main story mode to fight, but one optional fight has you dealing with two of them in a cramped arena. Activating Umbran Climax will cut the transformation short, but if you don't have enough magic to activate it, you should hope your dodging skills are up to the task! On top of that, it can grab you and force you to wiggle the left stick to get out, Dead Rising-style. Constantly having to stop what you're doing to have to shake the left stick is surprisingly unenjoyable! | |

And Now for Someone Completely Different: Loki is a playable character for one verse in Chapter V. You also get to control Loptr as he tumbles into Gomorrah's mouth during the final boss fight. In Chapter IV, the final portion of the Masked Lumen boss fight has you controlling Madama Butterfly as she does battle with Temperantia. And in Chapter XVI, there is a portion where you're flying a jet to Fimbulventr and simultaneously control 3 characters - Jeanne piloting the jet, and Bayonetta and Balder shooting and slashing from on top of the jet, respectively. In Tag Climax, you can play as Jeanne or Rodin as well as Bayonetta. Rosa and Balder are playable as well. | |

Summon Bigger Fish: Just like in the first game, Bayonetta is fond of summoning a demon bigger than the enemy she wants to take down. At the beginning of the game, however, the one she summons, Gomorrah, unfortunately breaks from her control and becomes the next boss fight. | |

Scaling the Summit: This is what Bayonetta and Loki try to do, as there's a portal to Inferno at the top of Fimbulventr, but they end up getting knocked back down by Valor before they even arrive on the mountain proper and instead decide to take an underwater shortcut to Inferno. Come endgame though, all of the major characters do arrive on the summit; Bayonetta, Jeanne, and Balder come in by fighter jet and Luka gets there with Loki by actually climbing the thing. | |

The Ending Changes Everything: For both 2 and the first game. Balder, who had been an Anti-Villain at worst in 2, traps Loptr inside him before he gets sent back to his time. As a result, the events of the first game are retconned so that the Father Balder met then is actually Loptr in control of his body. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Turns out while Bayonetta prevented the apocalypse in the original game, her actions erased the power of The Right Eye, which upset the Balance Between Good and Evil and leads to natural disasters across the world. This causes demons to attack Bayonetta just as indiscriminately as angels do. | |

Balder also counts to a lesser extent. His ranged attacks are much slower and prevent him from moving, making it harder to rack up a combo, and he can't use any accessories that might help mitigate the problem. He's also at a disadvantage in aerial/underwater fights due to lacking a Crow or Snake Within equivalent. Plus Light Speed's different visuals make the countdown indicator harder to keep track of. | |

And there is absolutely no mercy from Bayonetta when she finally faces down Alraune, the demon who has laid claim to Jeanne's soul. | |

It also happens to be one of the most difficult fights in a Hack and Slash game. In Tag Climax, a few extra bosses can be fought. Jeanne & Bayonetta and Rosa & Balder are fought as teams; and Labolas, one of the Infernal Demons that's normally summoned during Wicked Weaves, can also be fought. | |

Damn You, Muscle Memory! | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_963086ce | comment |
Damn You, Muscle Memory! Subverted with the game's controls. If you've played Bayo 1, the "lock on" and "switch weapon set" buttons have been switched for Bayo 2. Fortunately, the game allows you to switch them back, even calling the setting Bayonetta 1 controls. Played straight with Bayo's summoned demons. The Climax Gauge fills much faster than it did in Bayo 1... and consequently, the window of opportunity is much shorter. Also played straight with Love is Blue, which have a few shared combos with Scarborough Fair... and numerous different ones. | |

Riddle for the Ages | |

Riddle for the Ages: What exactly happened between Madama Butterfly and Alraune, and why does the latter hate the former so much? Amusingly, even Bayonetta comments that she's unaware of the answer. | |

The first summon Bayonetta uses to perform the finishing blow on an angel miniboss is Gomorrah. This is the same summon Jeanne uses for the final blow on the Big Bad. | |

Idiosyncratic Difficulty Levels | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_9a117348 | comment |
Idiosyncratic Difficulty Levels: In place of the standard difficulty names from the first game, we have the fitting "1st Climax", "2nd Climax", and "3rd Climax" for Easy, Normal, and Hard, respectively. A fourth difficulty setting, "Infinite Climax" can be unlocked upon beating the game in "3rd Climax". The Switch port just reuses "Easy", "Normal", and "Hard" for the first three difficulty levels, however, averting this trope. | |

Evil Counterpart | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_9b54d536 | comment |
Evil Counterpart: The masked Lumen Sage makes one for Bayonetta. He can fight her on equal footing, and summon angels just as she can demons. He even has his own Beast Within transformations, like a wolf. Just like in the first game, he's not what he appears to be. The sage, truly a young Balder, is the most benevolent Lumen Sage seen in the series thus far (and for that matter, the ONLY Lumen Sage we've seen thus far). Downplayed with the demonic enemies. Some of them are counterparts to the angelic enemies from the first game. Greed is a hexaped beast that uses fire and ice, much as Fairness and Fearless are quadrupeds that use fire and lightning. Sloth is a quick, combo-breaking humanoid with sharp weapons like Grace and Glory. They are downplayed examples since the angels are not really the nicest characters in the game themselves, and both groups are more-than willing to try to tear Bayonetta to shreds. | |

Giant Spider | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_9be7c205 | comment |
Giant Spider: Phantasmaraneae, absolutely humongous fire-breathing spiders that live near magma flows deep in Inferno. The title character summons one (and by extension its many offspring), and despite their ferocious appearance, they are known for being curious and rewarding to those who are respectful. However, in this game, the imbalance affecting the worlds causes them to go berserk, and one serves as a mini-boss. | |

Interface Spoiler: Very soon after starting the game, the co-op Competitive Multiplayer, Tag Climax, is unlocked, allowing a player to fight with others online. This can spoil the unlockable characters available in the game. While Jeanne is an obvious one, it spoils Rodin, Balder, and Rosa, the last two being major spoilers for the game. Averted with the Bronze and Silver trophies. They’re normally based on Loki and Luka respectively, but if those characters haven’t appeared in the story yet, the trophies will look like nuns instead. | |

Continuity Nod | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: There are many, many references to the first game: In the beginning of the game, Bayonetta gets her white clothes shredded, reducing her to the nude, before she dons her regular outfit. A similar scene takes place in the beginning of the first game. It's taken a little further in this one though, as Bayonetta is still shown, ass and all, for a few seconds before being censored by the light. Affinities, the mooks of the first game, appear in the first cutscene, and are then replaced by new centaur-like angels called Acceptances. The Final Boss shares many similarities with the Balder boss battle in the first. No-Sell summons, Kill Sat lasers, Tennis Boss quick-time events, and many of its moves are only cosmetically different. The ending shows there is a good reason for this. Just like the first game, Bayonetta 2 opens with Bayonetta fighting angels mid-fall while a narrator provides exposition on the series' mythology, though in this case Luka is the narrator. Both games also have major plot twists involving younger versions of one of the main characters. Most of the techniques from the first game are back, and some of Bayonetta's costumes from the first game return in Bayonetta 2, including her original look. In fact, simply getting the costume representing her original look unlocks some throwback weapons: Scarborough Fair and Shuraba, which work as they did in the original, down to using the same animations. The Golem shows up again, with the same climax ending as before, only this time, the demons actually succeed in turning it into a volleyball. It's actually what gets Bayonetta to Jeanne. At the very beginning of the game, Father Balder is stumbling out of the head of Jubileus, the Final Boss from the first game. Not only that, but players of that game might remember the final mission from the first game was destroying Jubileus's body before it crashed into Earth... with the head being the only major part of the statue that was missing. Near the end, Bayonetta describes 'her kind' to Balder as "The kind of witches you don't fuck with. This harkens back to her Pre-Mortem One-Liner against Father Balder in the first game, "Don't fuck with a witch". | |

Parts of it are even incorporated into the second game's "Lumen Sage and Temperantia", where you fight his younger self, The Masked Lumen, before finding out that he is Balder. | |

One-Hit Kill: Technically, a Two Hit Kill; the demonic Elite Mook Resentment has one attack, a large purple laser, that reverts Bayonetta/Jeanne/Rosa to childhood. It then disgorges clutching red hands that will grab Bayonetta/Jeanne/Rosa and drag her into its "mouth", instantly killing her. Chapter X has a section where Rodin is seen killing multiple demons with single attacks. According to him, this is him going easy on them. | |

Epic Fail | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_b4eff8a8 | comment |
Epic Fail: The reward for beating all chapters on 3rd Climax difficulty (the hardest standard difficulty) is a live, angry chain chomp she chains to her legs and uses as a flail. It's as deadly as it is absurd and unexpected. | |

Heads I Win, Tails You Lose: Done repeatedly in the battles against Loptr. Even though he must be defeated on every stage of each fight against him, the next cutscene always has Bayonetta barely on her feet while the boss laughs derisively. | |

Hypocritical Humor | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_b707726f | comment |
Hypocritical Humor: In Chapter 3, Loki and Luka meet for the first time, and Loki calls him "That perv who keeps staring at Bayonetta's tits all the time", and advises him that he needs to learn how to talk to a lady. This from a boy who had spent the entirety of the previous chapter being verbally emasculated by Bayonetta for his rude behavior, even using the exact phrase quoted above, and was even carried around around that same area in his squirrel form. | |

Brutal Bonus Level | |

Brutal Bonus Level: The Witch Trial chapters, unlocked after completing the story mode. All of them pit you against multiple waves of angels and demons with no items and limited recovery options. Worst of all, there are no checkpoints in any of them; die, and you have to repeat the entire trial from the start. Each chapter is longer and harder than the last, and the final trial involves fighting multiple bosses at the same time! Not only that, but unlike the normal chapters you can't use any lollipops during the Witch Trials, you'll need to do some serious practicing on Infinite Climax to pull through all of them. | |

Kicking Ass in All Her Finery: In addition to bringing back the Peach and Daisy outfits, the game also adds the 'Dress' outfit, two costumes based on fancy dresses Bayonetta wears during the Prologue and Ending of the game (Jeanne also has her own version for the fancy leather dress she wore in the ending). This game canonically shows that Bayonetta would rather not fight in her "Sunday Best", lamenting in the ending that she loses two dresses to angel attacks in a span of just a few days. | |

Continuing is Painful | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_c3d60914 | comment |
Continuing is Painful: A downplayed case in Tag Climax. Although there is no hard limit on how many times a player character can be revived whenever they are downed, every time they do get revived, they will start off with half as much health as the last time they are revived. E.g., the first time a character dies and is revived, they will regain only half their max HP, then if they die and is revived again, they will only have half of that previous half, a.k.a., 25% their max HP and so on. In other words, dying repeatedly in Tag Climax will make your character more and more fragile. | |

Two Lines, No Waiting: The game starts off with a plot To Hell and Back for the titular character in order to reclaim the soul of her friend, Jeanne, but gets sidetracked by a secondary plot involving a Tagalong Kid named Loki who just so happens to have amnesia about who he is, other than he just to happens to be trying to get to the same holy mountain as Bayonetta. The plots clash more than a few time, but end up being more intertwined once the Big Bad Loptr/Aesir is revealed, since he was the one who caused Jeanne's soul to be sent to hell, and also happens to be Loki's evil half. | |

A subtle New Game Plus function enables Jeanne or Rosa to be selected if she has been unlocked on another save file; during this period, the handguns will use the old Scarborough Fair moveset that All 4 One and Unforgiven maintain. The scene during the prologue where Rodin throws Bayonetta her new Love Is Blue quartet will have the weapons replaced by Arwing Guns if Bayo's in the Star Mercenary outfit, All 4 One if Jeanne is selected, or Unforgiven if Rosa is selected. Earning a Platinum or Pure Platinum trophy while using a different character in Story Mode will have that character modelling the trophy.note Sadly averted in Tag Climax: characters available in Story Mode will have their different trophies used, but Balder and Rodin will use Bayonetta's trophies. If you use Panther Within while wearing the Galactic Bounty Hunter costume, Bayonetta turns into a Morph Ball. Doing this while Loki is with you in his squirrel form will result in him frantically running on top of the ball trying not to fall off. In the Switch port, if "Moon River" is playing or has played within the last 30 seconds, video capture will be disabled. However, if background music is set to mute, you can always perform video captures, even during sections where that song would otherwise be playing. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: Alraune, who laid claim to Jeanne's soul after she was Dragged Off to Hell and tries to do the same thing to Bayonetta during her battle with her, ultimately gets her own soul sucked out by Rodin in order to be made into a weapon for Bayonetta. | |

Mirror Boss | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_d47d9b71 | comment |
Mirror Boss: Pinch hitting for Jeanne is the new Lumen Sage. Can do anything Bayonetta can do up to and including summoning giants to fight on his behalf. The monsters they toss at each other also serve as Evil Counterpart mirror bosses for each other, too: Fortitudo and Labolas are both multi-headed summons that do the most melee damage with their teeth and are capable of limited, slow flight. While Labolas doesn't have fire abilities like Fortitudo, it doesn't seem to mind the magma field they fight on, and is from Inferno to boot, meaning it's safe to assume it has some fire resistance. Temperantia and Madama Butterfly are both the most humanoid summons that Bayonetta and the Sage have at their disposal, have better flight capabilities than the previous two, and mainly fight with their fists. Sapientia and Hydra are both at home in liquid environments and have flexible, cutting appendages in the form of Sapientia's laser tentacles and Hydra's horns, as well as evenly-matched secondary options in the form of Hydra's scream and Sapientia's missiles. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: There's an option to switch the controls to Bayo 1's setup, for the express purpose of averting Damn You, Muscle Memory!. In the first game, fights that took place entirely in Bullet Time from a story perspective (i.e. the Torture Climax tutorial in the Prologue) were considered by the gameplay to be in Witch Time, so the player couldn't trigger Witch Time in mid-fight for the advantage against the opponent. In Bayo 2, what is Bullet Time from a story perspective is no longer Witch Time for the gameplay. Demons drop orbs of crystallized essence rather than the halos angels drop. Rather than keeping separate counts and having certain things Rodin only sells for orbs, they're both added to the same count at a 1:1 exchange rate. The Platinum Ticket to fight the game's Superboss is nearly ten times more expensive than it was in the first game. But unlike before, halos spent to buy it are not saved should the player fail. This allows for freely fighting the boss after hitting that 9,999,999-halo mark the first time, unless the amount dips below that from buying other items. After beating him, subsequent rematches are free. | |

Unlockable Content: The game continues this trend with Jeanne and most of the same accessories available to be unlocked (with a mix of new and old weapons), but also introduces Bayonetta's mother, Rosa, as a new unlockable character. The sequel also introduces Verse Cards which can be used in the online co-op mode, Tag Climax, which in turn can unlock two additional bonus characters, Balder and Rodin, although these two only be used in the aforementioned Tag Climax. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_d9cf40fa | comment |
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: The magic-wielding Mouthy Kid Loki is happy to follow Bayonetta around, helping her out with his powers in exchange for her protecting him from the angels out to kill him for reasons he can't recall. However, he rationally draws the line at literally following Bayonetta into Inferno. At least until an ambush by the Lumen Sage and Loptr manages to make Inferno look like a reasonable escape route. | |

Lethal Joke Item | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_da1c64ef | comment |
Lethal Joke Item: Completing the game on any difficulty (even Easy/First Climax) unlock the Handguns, the non-magical guns Bayonetta use during the prequel chapter of the game (before she receives the Love Is Blue set). While they have no specials powers and can't even channel Wicked Weaves, let alone Umbran Climax, they still do damage, and because they are the weakest weapons overall, they can be extremely useful for racking up combos (since enemies take more attacks to die), and are perfect for missions that require the use of Torture Attacks. Completing the game on 3rd Climax unlocks the final weapon: A live Chain Chomp straight out of Super Mario Bros. chained to Bayonetta's leg. Laugh all you want, but it makes for a powerful mix of an Epic Flail and an Angry Guard Dog. | |

Malevolent Masked Men | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_db88b941 | comment |
Malevolent Masked Men: introduces a new character acting as The Rival for Bayonetta, a Lumen Sage wearing a mask that resembles the Sun. Given that he is intent on the death of Loki and fights almost exactly like Bayonetta, using light-themed versions of her moves, he fits this trope to a T. ...or not. He actually has his reasons for wanting to kill Loki (he thinks that he killed his lover), and even then this is because he was a pawn of Loptr. | |

Only Mostly Dead | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_dd5faec5 | comment |
Only Mostly Dead: It's revealed in this game that this is how death works in the Bayonetta universe. As Rodin explains, someone is only truly dead once their departed soul fully becomes part of another realm in the Trinity of Realities (either by being eaten, adapted or otherwise transformed), and this process takes roughly a day or so. Until that point, it is possible to resurrect someone. However, this comes with a number of caveats, such as keeping their physical body in a intact, stable, preserved state, the person's life having been cut short in a "wrong" way (i.e. Jeanne's soul being taken outside the terms of her contract), and someone being able to actually get to the departed soul and attach to them a means to call the soul back to their body. As such, mostly dead ends up being truly dead almost always. | |

Casual Danger Dialogue: In the prologue, Bayonetta and Jeanne seem awfully preoccupied about their upcoming Christmas party. That would be casual enough, if not for the fact that they were at the same time fighting hordes of Angels hell-bent on killing them. | |

The Evils of Free Will: Played with. It's explained in the opening that The Overseer gave the Eyes of the World to humanity, giving them free will. The Big Bad uses the evil intent that comes with it to grow in power and manipulate the events so he can get the Eyes back and become Aesir again, but later calls free will a joke and an illusion. | |

Water Is Air: It stands out much more than in the first game, as Noatun features much more water than Vigrid; Bayonetta and Loki can breathe, walk, talk and use any weapon underwater. The sole things she can't do there is using her Crow and Panther forms, and she gets a new Snake form to compensate. | |

Boss Subtitles | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_e1aed0a9 | comment |
Somehow, the Boss Subtitles manage to deliver one in a later chapter. In Chapter XII, you fight the Masked Lumen for the third and final time. Only this time, he unmasks. If the appearance of the Right Eye didn't clue you in, then the game drives it home in the Pastel-Chalked Freeze Frame sequence. Lumen Sage: Balder. This also turns out to be a reference to the first game, seeing as this chapter has the same name as Balder's chapter in the first game: The Lumen Sage. | |

Then again, they add an undeniable and fitting mystical flair to the Final Boss arena. | |

Art Evolution | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: The game does not care for the Wii U's bad rep, and does everything it can to show off what the console can do compared to the previous generation. Coming packaged with Bayo 1 - which only includes the added Nintendo costumes and does not bolster any of the graphics - only gives the new player an opportunity to appreciate the improvement. The first game's Prologue took place in a graveyard in the rain, and a highway through the city at twilight, resulting in subdued colors. Bayo 2's Prologue takes place on the back of a fighter jet speeding through the city in broad daylight, upon a rapidly-collapsing train bridge, and up the side of a building, all of which are much more vibrant. Climax Summons in the first game were completely obscured by the summoning witch's hair, which occasionally faded in and out to show parts of the Infernal in question. Here, the summons are far more openly visible when summoned, and several demons manifest completely without the hair covering. The first game had numerous pseudo-Stop Motion cutscenes in the form of grainy-film frame-slipping sequences. Here, the same technique is instead used through the hands of a clock, with both the frame and the images rendered clearly. Noatun and its environs are positively gorgeous compared to Vigrid and Isla del Sol, with much more vibrant colors. | |

If you evade correctly, you will start the fight in Witch Time. Sometimes Bayonetta eats a random lollipop during a cutscene. You may have this color lollipop bound to one of your item buttons. You can use it for free by pressing the button. | |

Groin Attack: Jeanne nearly drives the front wheel of her motorcycle right into Enzo's groin in an early cutscene. Happens if a player selects "No" on the Game Over screen. Doubles as a Breast Attack, since out of all the hands that will grab Bayonetta, two of them go over her boobs and one goes right on her crotch. She effectively gets dragged down to Inferno by her boobs and lady parts. | |

| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_ee3438ee | comment |
The Battle Didn't Count: Happens in almost every fight with Aesir. Yes, even the final one. However, there's at least a reason you have to beat him up each time. First time, as The Prophet, beating him just gives Bayonetta and Loki a chance to escape through a portal to Hell. Second time, as his child form Loptr, beating him just means he stops playing, but overdoes it and knocks you out of the sky, inadvertently letting you escape. Even in the final fight: Beating Phase 1 just gives your ally Balder enough time to recover. Beating Phase 2+3 gives your other allies enough time to activate the Void card After this, you finally get to deliver a satisfying No-Holds-Barred Beatdown. | |

Swallowed Whole | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_eea96e78 | comment |
Swallowed Whole: The boss fight against Insidious leads to a Womb Level after it does this to Bayonetta. The demon Elite Mook Resentment, as mentioned above, can do this as a One-Hit Kill after it turns Bayonetta or Jeanne into a child. Bayonetta's summoned demon Baal does this when used as a Torture Attack or a Climax Attack — ironically, Baal is the Torture Attack used on Resentment. | |

Goggles Do Something Unusual | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_f1716087 | comment |
Goggles Do Something Unusual: Played straight when Luka gets his hands on a pair of permanently enchanted specs from the Fallen Angel Rodin so he can see the angels (and Bayonetta) in Purgatorio whenever he wants. | |

Dark Reprise | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_f3fd818b | comment |
Dark Reprise: Alraune's two battle themes demonstrate this, much how Jeanne's last two did in the original Bayonetta, with "Alraune, Whisperer of Insanity" being a hellish remix of "Alraune, Whisperer of Dementia". | |

Sarcastic Clapping | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_f6e05922 | comment |
Sarcastic Clapping: This is the titular character's reaction after watching Loki take out a group of angels by himself, granted this might be subverted since she did seem at least somewhat genuinely impressed with his skills beforehand (she is notorious for her snark, after all). This clapping animation is actually used for Bayonetta's losing animation for her appearance as a Guest Fighter in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, looking as snarky and sarcastic as ever. | |

One to Million to One | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_f7d3dbb | comment |
One to Million to One: Like in the first game, by dodging an attack at the very last second, Bayonetta can shatter into bats upon getting hit, negating the attack and gaining increased amounts of Witch Time in the process. For Jeanne she turns into a swarm of moths, and this is the only way she can get Witch Time normally. In the sequel, Rosa can also use this ability, turning into a swarm of hornets. | |

Downer Beginning | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_f88f2449 | comment |
Downer Beginning: One of Bayonetta's demonic summons goes horribly wrong and drags Jeanne's soul off to Inferno, leaving Bayo to cradle her best friend's lifeless body in the rain... all before Chapter 1 even begins. | |

Purposely Overpowered | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_f89f164a | comment |
Purposely Overpowered: Rodin's namesake weapon, which in both games is unlocked by beating his Superboss fight. It's a quartet of rings that act as a Swiss-Army Weapon that morph into almostnote In 2, it cannot become any of the Angel Arms from the first game every Enemy Arm, and Enemy Arms as a whole have significantly more power and combo points to them than regular weapons. The cost is that Rodin is much harder to beat than the final boss on the hardest difficulty, requires a lot of grinding just to fight him, and since fighting him automatically sets the difficulty to the highest, you can't cheese the fight by beating him on Very Easy/Easy. | |

| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_f97b5d33 | comment |
Shoo Out the Clowns: Luka has less screen time in this game than the last one, and while Loki also provides a comic relief role, he gradually phases out of it. | |

| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: At one point, Bayonetta and Enzo take a small plane to the sacred mountain of Fimbulventr. When they get close enough, Bayonetta bids him farewell and jumps out, at which point it is revealed that Bayonetta was controlling the plane with her magic, causing Enzo to panic because he has no idea how to fly or land the plane. In the epilogue, Bayonetta suddenly realizes she completely forgot about Enzo, then the plane flies into the area, under attack from evil angels and with Enzo desperately trying to keep it under control. | |

Newbie Immunity | |
| Bayonetta 2 (Video Game) / int_feab67ef | comment |
Newbie Immunity: The game starts with a prologue chapter where you play as Bayonetta fighting against a horde of Angels, all while a narrator talks over the scenario. It's impossible to take damage, as this section lacks a health bar, giving you the opportunity to try out whatever combos you'd like against foes for a short period of time. | |
