Bayonetta Origins is quite different from the main series. You play as two characters, Cherry and Cheshire, simultaneously as you navigate a colorful world from an isometric perspective. There’s still action combat, but Bayonetta Origins is more focused on puzzles and narrative.

Despite the big changes in style and tone, Bayonetta Origins is more than worthy of its name. It got a 9/10 in our Bayonetta Origins review.

“Bayonetta Origins: Cherry and The Lost Demon is a testament to thinking outside the box,” wrote reviewer Jessica Howard. “While I don’t suspect that Platinum Games will embrace this new style of gameplay and storytelling in future Bayonetta games in the same way that Breath of the Wild or God of War (2018) changed the direction of their respective franchises, I can’t help but appreciate that the studio trusted their team’s vision enough to create this experience. Though with how fantastic every aspect of the game is, I understand why the developer did it.”

As a prequel, you can enjoy Bayonetta Origins even if you haven’t played the other three games in the franchise. With that being said, we highly recommend playing all three. Bayonetta 3, which released last fall, is $45 off at Amazon and Best Buy right now. meanwhile you can Get the first game of Bayonetta on PC (Steam) for $16.59 at Fanatical.
