Some actual Bayonetta 3 footage may be arriving later this month, if a certain game director is to be believed. Originally teased during The Game Awards 2017, developer PlatinumGames has been mostly silent on how development is progressing, save for the fact that the title will be a Nintendo Switch exclusive. Now, it appears that we may finally be getting the reveal we’ve all been waiting for, though the source of the information is more than a little questionable.

A fan on Twitter asked Bayonetta 3 game director Hideki Kamiya if there was any news about the game, and when we can expect to see any gameplay. Kamiya-san responded to the fan by saying “next week…on a game site.” The actual untranslated Tweet can be found below:

来週の…ゲームサイトに… RT @SkippyBaxter: 私は気にするつもりはありません、私は本当にそうではありません しかし、いつあなたがBayonetta 3のゲームプレイショーケースを準備すると思いますか?
すべての変更を本当に見たいのですが。 pic.twitter.com/wY70w1RJS3

Now, one particularly important thing to point out here is that Kamiya-san is notorious for trolling people that ask him questions. In fact, the Resetera thread where the Twitter conversation was revealed is rife with other users laughing about the gullibility of anyone that could believe that new Bayonetta 3 news is coming soon, if it was suggested by Kamiya-san.

Still, it’s been about a year and a half since the game was originally revealed, and there is a possibility – however slim – that we may actually get some new footage for the game next week. For now we’ll just have to wait and see.

Bayonetta 3 is currently in development exclusively for the Nintendo Switch.

So, thoughts on the possibility of new Bayonetta 3 footage? Do you think we can believe Hideki Kamiya, or is a a new trailer still a ways off?
