Probably not another April Fool’s gag
PlatinumGames has expanded a bit with its teasing fifth reveal, which was added to the “Platinum4” website. The Bayonetta The developer notes that the mystery announcement is certainly “smaller in scale” than the studio’s previous revelations, but it is something fans will “get a kick out of”.
“We want to reveal it at the right time, but what we can say at this point is that this was always meant to be the ‘Platinum Four’, so I think expectations should be for something extra,” said Platinum co-founder Hideki Kamiya in a VGC interview. “That said, this is something we’ve been working on for a while.”
“We wanted to get this out a little earlier, but then the coronavirus happened, which I know is a common excuse, but we hope that when we can talk about it, it will put a smile on our fans’ faces. a good response like, ‘ah, we love those platinum guys!’ “
It sounds like we may all need to temper our expectations just a little for the incoming announcement, which follows previous revelations from The Wonderful 101 Remastered, Kamiya’s own kaiju hunter Project GG., the new Platinum studio in Tokyo, and April Fool’s gag Sun Crest. I honestly don’t think we’re going to be one Bayonetta 3 launch date, but hopefully – whatever the surprise – it will be a nice addition to the platinum body of work.
