The game is just one of several currently in development at PlatinumGames (<strong>Babylon&#8217;s Fall<\/strong> is expected to arrive next year on PS4 and PC, and smartphone project <strong>World of Demons<\/strong> is in development, too, amongst others) and the studio is no doubt working incredibly hard to make it as strong as it can possibly be.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/www.4gamer.net\/games\/999\/G999905\/20181219044\/index_8.html#pra_ina\">4Gamer<\/a> (with a translation via <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/gematsu.com\/2018\/12\/4gamer-interviews-japanese-creators-on-2019-ambitions\">Gematsu<\/a>), Atsushi Inaba, Development General Manager and Executive Producer at PlatinumGames, has said the following about 2019, noting that the studio wishes to &#8220;step up&#8221; its work and that it&#8217;ll make some announcements along the way.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cNext year will be an intense year as usual. It seems like it will be a year where PlatinumGames aims to step up a few steps, so I\u2019ll do the best that I can\u2026. If I end it with something safe like that, then my statement won\u2019t be interesting, right? So next year we will make various announcements!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>We&#8217;re still yet to receive a release window for Bayonetta 3 &#8211; it&#8217;s worth noting that it could well come after 2019 &#8211; but development was said to be going <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2018\/09\/bayonetta_3_development_going_very_very_well_platinumgames_feels_excited\">&#8220;very, very well&#8221;<\/a> just a few months ago.<\/p>\n<p>Are you hoping to see the game arrive next year?
