Nintendo has revealed that Bayonetta 2 will be launched exclusively on the Wii U home console and has shown a short trailer for the game during the event where it also unveiled the launch dates for the new device.

The publisher has revealed that Atsushi Inaba, from Platinum Games, is the producer, and Yusuke Hashimoto is the director.

The released trailer is very short and only shows the main character using her boots in order to turn some bullets around, something that’s very consistent with the image we have of the witch from the first game in the series.

Tatsuya Minami, the CEO and president at Platinum Games, has stated, “Bayonetta is one of our most beloved titles, and it played a large part in establishing PlatinumGames as an emerging game studio in the minds of users worldwide. Bayonetta has fans the world over, and we would never dream of alienating them from participating in the future of PlatinumGames.”

It’s not clear when Bayonetta 2 will be launched.
