Sunday’s Castle Town clips already ran. This is Monday’s unused tease.
Polygon, Willa Rowe, Monday 11:14 a.m. ET, citing Famitsu as translated by VGC: PlatinumGames boss Atsushi Inaba said that while he cannot announce anything at the moment, the studio has “a strong desire to further develop the character of Bayonetta and expand her world. Please look forward to seeing what form that takes in the future.” That is a desire. It is not a title, a platform, or a date this desk will type. Polygon notes Bayonetta last starred in 2023’s Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon. We will not invent Bayonetta 4.
Same Polygon file: Shift Up CEO Hyung-tae Kim, in the interview to promote an upcoming Stellar Blade and Bayonetta crossover, said Platinum needs to continue the series through Bayonetta 10 and that he would get the info off the record. A crossover joke is not a ship date. Platinum’s next named title is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin, re-revealed June 2026 after Platinum took over from Black Forest, currently with no release window. A window we do not have is not a window we invent. Sunday midday already filed Ocarina of Time remake clips — Hyrule Castle Town and Gerudo Fortress — street date still Nov. 5. Thursday’s Belmont’s Curse demo already ran; full Oct. 15. We will not reprint those as first-day news. September already filed a Stellar Blade Switch 2 demo and a Bayonetta trailer; Nov. 6 for that port. This unused file is Inaba’s cannot announce, not that demo reprinted.
What this means for you
If you needed Sunday’s unused clips, they still stand as Castle Town and Gerudo, Nov. 5. If you needed this afternoon’s unused Gaming, it is Inaba will not announce, wants to keep developing Bayonetta. If you needed a dated sequel, wait.
Bottom line: Desire, not a date. Not Bayonetta 4 invented. Not Ocarina clips reprinted. Still Nov. 5 for the remake.
