Hideki Kamiya: "We should all forget about Bayonetta 3. Then when something happens it'll be a surprise."

I genuinely think they announced the game right as it was greenlit. That's fine--they'll show it when they show it.
It makes me more appreciative of games that are announced much closer to release - Hyrule Warriors: AoC, Astral Chain, Ringfit Adventure, all within 6 months of announcement were out.
Rather sounds like it's Nintendo's decision when and how the game is going to reappear. Probably gonna be very close to it's actual launch.
I think people are taking his statement a lot more seriously than I think is intended.
Kamiya is a troll and likes a bit of banter. Seems like an off the cuff remark to me and inline with his typical style.

Seems clear to me something went pretty wrong with Bayonetta 3. Yusuke Hashimoto, Bayonetta 2's Director, leaving Platinum in 2019 was certainly indicative of that I feel. I'm kinda fine with if 3 got a reboot and restarted development then though as I don't think Bayo 2 was up to snuff in many ways. 3 needs to be more of a return to form and actually maybe have a good story for once as well.
I miss when Platinum released several games per year :(
Looks like I was right in expecting some dev difficulties, I don't understand why they would announce it so early only for it to release in 2022 or so. TFW when I bought a Switch to play it in 2018 and now It'll probably be one of the last exclusives of the system

He's a known troll. This could either be the game being announced a week after being greenlit or it being ready for release in march or something like that.
They could also be saving this and MP4 for the switch pro.

Even if it was coming out this fall it would have been announced too early. We've seen nothing on this game.
Why do I get the feeling that Bayonetta 3 is getting Alien Colonial Marined?
I really hope this reference lands...
He is saying stop pestering me you assholes. But I feel Kamiya being such a troll that this could literally mean nothing.
Don't see why it's an issue. 80% of games are revealed years before release. Nintendo typically show most gameplay off the actual year they release.
Nope and nope.
Hashimoto did tweet this in 2019 though:
I don't get that impression that it's still years off. He literally says "something has to come out this year". I'm somewhat optimistically interpreting that to be the game itself. He's just not saying anything about it because Nintendo owns the IP and the marketing, and we all know (outside of a title card teaser) Nintendo generally doesn't start marketing until four to five months before release.
Kamiya: I have a lengthy history of not putting up with hyped up fanboys polluting my social media inbox. Get used to it with Bayo 3 as well.
Gamers: Yeah but does this mean there's a problem with development? Why won't you announce a release date?? Where's my marketing campaign???

So what you're saying is that the game will be featured next week, in game magazines. :)
He may have been talking about previews, actual footage of it, etc. Given that there's literally not been anything about it for years.
Haha, this is exactly what I was thinking.Time to update the GIF
Astral Chain was revealed in February and released 6 months later in August. That's just how Nintendo rolls.
