Originally released by Platinum Games as a Nintendo exclusive title, Bayonetta 2’s titular heroine is a havoc-wreaking witch whose aim is just as impressive as her style, all of which is on display in this gorgeous 208 page hardcover book. The Eyes of Bayonetta 2 collects all of the artwork behind this celebrated video game sequel into a perfect companion to the video game series.
From
Fimbulventr to the Gates of Hell, The Eyes of Bayonetta 2 explores
developmental sketches, weapon and environment designs, as well as
promotional artwork, journal entries, and plenty of exclusive creator
commentary throughout the pages. Series artist and character designer
Mari Shimazaki, also known for her work on Okami, Soul Calibur V and
Tekken 7, is featured prominently in this book as her incredibly
detailed character designs have infused Bayonetta with an iconic style
that is instantly recognizable.
“As
someone who’s played the game, this book was a delight for me,” says
Akiko Kuroda, Producer of Bayonetta 2. “So many of the designer comments
and behind-the-scenes anecdotes were things I never knew myself even.
Everyone involved in publishing the book, including the development
staff, was clearly passionate about it, and beyond just learning more
about the world of ‘Bayonetta 2,’ the book also contains all that
precious artwork.”
The
Eyes of Bayonetta 2 is now available for pre-order and will be released
on November 20, 2018. Bring this legendary title home for the holidays!
