The counterpoint between what’s literally happening on screen and its logical impossibility lulls you into a state that’s both meditative and frenzied. Then it’s back into boss fight duels with masked swordsman priests. Just pummeled a giant shape-shifting diamond full of lava? Here’s a stretch of platforming where you can run around as a panther or double-jump on butterfly wings while hunting for old witch hearts to extend your health.

In the same way that it balances irony and soul, though, Bayonetta doles out spectacle at just the right pace.Ĭhapters never drag on as they did in the first game, and it knows right when to let you relax and take in the scenery.

But it’s not just about brawn-it’s also about style. Bayonetta 2 Bayonetta is a butt-kicking, havoc-wreaking witch who wields sweet weapons like pistols, whips, hammers, flamethrowers, and poison bows.
