Sega‘s upcoming Devil May Cry competitor, Bayonetta, is nearly complete, the firm has revealed today. In development at PlatinumGames, the sexy action title is about “80 percent [complete]”.
“In terms of development, we’re actually aboiut 80 percent there,” said Hashimoto, speaking after a demo.
“We’ve only made the really basic parts, what makes the game really, really good, what makes the game really, really fun.
“We’re at the stage to actually polish the game, to balance it out nicely; to make it really nice and tidy.”
The game was already delayed to January 2010. Sega, however, says they’re not disappointed about the delay, as it was purley a “business decision.”
“It was purely a business decision. We’ve got a lot of games coming from Sega already coming this year.
“Bayonetta is really, really important to us, and we want it to work very well, that’s why we decided to postpone untiul very early next year.”
Bayonetta looks amazing. Keep an eye out for its release.
