'Bayonetta' creator hints at sequel

Bayonetta creator Hideki Kamiya has hinted at a sequel to the action title.

Writing via his Twitter account, the former Capcom employee said that the game's protagonist is likely to return in the future.

When asked whether a follow-up to the Platinum Games title will be developed, he responded, "I believe so", later adding: "She'll be back if you believe so".

Bayonetta was released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 earlier this year. The game received positive reviews in the press and sold over one million copies within a month.

Platinum Games is currently working on Shinji Mikami's Vanquish, which will be published by Sega.
