There are still some minor problems that were not ironed over, but none too egregious. This mode ran quite smoothly and was a ton of fun to play, but in order to fully enjoy the experience you have to play the story mode in order to unlock more battles. There are six battles each, and the winner of each battle chooses a Verse Card of their own choosing and sets the Halo wager. This makes the game feel more balanced and enjoyable since bosses no longer drag on.Īnother big addition is the Tag Climax, an online mode where you and an online buddy can compete against each other in battles of your choosing after wagering Halos to increase the battle difficulty. But now with a full magic bar, the Umbran Climax (essentially Bayonetta’s boss form from the first game), can be unleashed for crowd control.
Learning the different enemy cues and dodging attacks makes this game an absolute thrill ride, and the extra challenge of achieving Pure Platinum rank never gets boring.Ī big flaw I noticed in the last game was that boss battles felt too long sometimes, even when Bayonetta was powered up. As with the last game, what keeps it out of button-masher territory is the element of Witch Time, where dodging an enemy attack at the right time will not only give you an edge in battle, but give you a slight score increase. Bayonetta can equip a crazy assortment of weapons to her hands or heels, allowing for a wide variety of combo attacks. Platinum’s titular witch will spout one-liners within cutscenes and insults with sexual undertones towards her enemies. What makes Bayonetta 2 stand above other third person hack and slash titles is the sass and style of its titular main character.
It easily ranks as one of the best third person action games I’ve played since the original. This is just the start of a game full of great production values and stellar gameplay. The fight moves to a train against a grotesque angel with a whip arm, and then the demon you summoned goes berserk and sends your best friend to Inferno. In the first ten minutes of the game, you are riding on top of a big fighter jet battling angels while a giant snake-like angel is flying around.
