Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon, a brand new Bayonetta prequel makes its debut at the Game Awards

gamepur.com:

As fans continue recovering from the end of Bayonetta 3, a prequel debuted during the 2022 Game Awards. The prequel is called Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon and centers on Bayonetta when she was only a girl. Contrasting to the fast-paced hack-and-slice action that the mainline Bayonetta series is known for, Origins is a slower pace adventure game where players take control of young Bayonetta, who is protected by a monstrous teddy bear.

Origins have an eschewed top-down perspective, which is different from the third-person perspective the Bayonetta trilogy is usually more well known for. The title also has a more storybook art style, making Bayonetta’s origin seem more like a fairy tale rather than the ultraviolet spectacle that fans are accustomed to in the main series. Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon is slated to release on March 17, 2023, for the Nintendo Switch, and fans can pre-order the game now in major retailer chains and on the Nintendo eShop.
