Bayonetta 2 Gameplay ~ Prologue - World of Chaos
3Bayonetta 2 Demo for Wii U and first impression
Finally, Bayonetta 2 gameplay! We've played the first Bayonetta back in 2010 and we were amazed. Now, here she is again with her nonstop climax action! This is that rare Wii U title that just isn't done justice played on the GamePad, which is too small and tiny to let you follow all the wild action. To truly appreciate Bayonetta 2, you want the game on your big screen, sound effects blaring, Bayonetta's wild attacks taking up 40 or 50 or 60 inches in front of you.
I just realized we didn't capture their voices since Elgato can only capture stereo. We forgot to set the sound from Surround to Stereo. Either way, hope you enjoy! :D

Bayonetta 2 (ベヨネッタ 2 Beyonetta Tsū?) is an action hack and slash video game developed by Platinum Games and published by Nintendo for the Wii U, with Sega as the franchise owners serving as its advisor. It is the direct sequel to the 2009 game, Bayonetta, and was directed by Yusuke Hashimoto and produced by Atsushi Inaba as well as Hitoshi Yamagami from Nintendo, under supervision by series creator Hideki Kamiya. It was announced on September 13, 2012 exclusively for Wii U, unlike the previous game which was released on both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The titular character, Bayonetta, sports a new costume and hairstyle and the game itself features a new two-player mode. The game is also the second Bayonetta product to receive Japanese voiceovers, using the same cast that voiced the Bayonetta: Bloody Fate anime film by Gonzo. The game was released in September 2014 and includes a port of the original Bayonetta as a separate disc inside the case.
Bayonetta 2 carries on the action-style gameplay of its predecessor, in which players control the eponymous Bayonetta as she fights against various angelic and demonic using combinations of melee attacks and gunplay. Dodging enemy attacks at the last second activates 'Witch Time', slowing down enemies around Bayonetta and allowing players to easily retaliate and solve certain environmental puzzles. Players are also able to use special moves called Torture Attacks, trapping opponents in infernal devices for extra points. Weapon customization from the first game also returns, allowing players to equip combinations of new weapons on both Bayonetta's hands and feet. A large array of weapons can be equipped, including the character's signature guns, a bow, swords and other forms of projectile weapons. Players earn grades during combat, with the highest 'Pure Platinum' grade achieved by performing high numbers of combos, in the fastest time possible, without being damaged. As with the previous game, Bayonetta can use Torture Attacks on her enemies, conjured torture devices that finish off single enemies in gruesome ways and grant a bonus to the player.
Bayonetta 2 also adds a new gameplay element called Umbran Climax which can be activated when the player has a full magic gauge. Similar to the state of boss fights in the first game, this technique strengthens Bayonetta's attacks and combos with extra Wicked Weaves and Infernal Demon summons for a short period of time. This increases their overall range and damage and also replenishes Bayonetta's health when in use.
