Not long 4Gamer issued a very extensive interview with none less than 150 Japanese developers. In this interview, developers spoke about different relevant gaming subjects as they relate to this past year as well as what’s in store for 2015 and beyond. Akiko Kuroda was one of the developers 4Gamer included in their write-up.

Firstly, you may heard about Kuroda from her effort on Bayonetta. In fact, Bayonetta was spoken about in the interview when Kuroda teased the development of something Bayonetta-related for 2015.

“I have started working on the next project, but it looks like the announcement will come later. In any case, I think that it would be nice if something Bayonetta-related was also developed in 2015, so please pay attention to the continuation of Bayonetta!”

Bayonetta 2 director Hashimoto Yusuke also spoke about a new project, though, he was even vaguer than his Miss Kuroda. Nevertheless, it would be pretty amazing for a new Bayonetta to hit just next year. While Bayonetta 2 hasn’t sold all that well, we’ve seen time and time again that Platinum don’t seem to be bothered about sales that much. Hideki Kamiya has routinely reinforced this stance, saying that he doesn’t care about sales or reviews, so long as people are enjoying themselves with whichever game is his newest work.

Although it’s unclear as to what this new Bayonetta project could be, we wouldn’t be too very surprised to see some kind of substantial DLC expansion, or even a sort of Bayonetta 2.5, with new levels, characters, modes and story elements. Heck, we could even see Platinum going all in and just giving us Bayonetta 3.

We can’t rule out some kind of multiplatform Bayonetta title either – seeing the bad sales of Bayonetta 2, hopefully the next episode will appear on PS4 as well.
