Bayonetta 3 plays like a best of PlatinumGames, and might well be the studio's best yet

There's only two sections we're free to discuss in this last preview before we give the final verdict, but they illustrate the point perfectly well. First, we've a gauntlet run through modern-day Tokyo with Bayonetta herself, summoned into the real world through an oh-so-fashionable multiverse hook.

The summons see Scalebound's promise of fighting side by side with a screen-filling dragon come to life. And, in practice, it lends a giddy new edge to Bayonetta's combat, taking an over-the-top formula and making it somehow even more outrageous still. In the short section on offer for our preview there are three Demon Slaves to call on , starting with kaiju-esque beast Gomorrah who even gets their own kaiju-esque one-on-one encounters as they stomp across the cityscape.

Playing through Bayonetta 3 with its new emphasis on Demon Slave summons those behind-closed-doors demos spring immediately to mind, so it didn't come as too much of a surprise to dig a little deeper and find that Bayonetta 3's director Yusuke Miyata served as a designer on Scalebound.
