As Bayonetta cuts through waves of celestial enemies, she discovers that her forgotten past holds answers she might not want to remember. The line between who she was and who she's become grows thinner with each battle, and the truth about her twenty missing years could change everything. Stylish combat and supernatural intrigue blend together as Bayonetta searches for her lost identity.
