Bayonetta's back and more powerful than ever. Wield wild new weapons and execute deadly new moves–like the powerful Umbran Climax–to take out angels and demons in this breathtaking action game. You can even team up with friends in 2-player online co-op fights.

Bayonetta is deadly but sleek, with moves like Witch Time that slows down time itself, and the all-new Umbran Climax–a special magic attack that summons Infernal Demons to devastate enemies.

Bayonetta 2 also features an all-new online 2-player cooperative mode where players bet halos on their performance and work together to amplify their sass, cause destruction, and score some riches.
