A Christmas Story

In modern day, the daughter of an Umbra Witch and a Lumen Sage—a forbidden union—awoke after centuries of slumber, with no memory of who she was. All she knew was that she could use the power of the Umbra to summon demons, and destroy the angels of Paradiso wherever they lay.

Destroy those angels she did, running into a rival who fought suspiciously like herself in the process. When it was all over, she’d saved the world and gained a best friend, Jeanne. But most importantly, she remembered who she was. Bayonetta’s—Cereza’s—life, after so long, belonged to herself once more.

Time passed, but the planes of existence never rest, and there are always forces waiting to take the world for their own. On Christmas Eve, during routine angel-thwarting, Jeanne is snatched and taken to Inferno.

This will not stand.

Now, fully aware of who she is and what she’s capable of, and with an entourage of old friends and unlikely new allies at her side, Bayonetta sets out to rescue her best friend and Umbran sister. Her journey will take her to the world’s most mysterious mountain, upward to Paradiso, and down to the depths of Inferno itself. Along the way, however, she may well stumble upon another one of those world-threatening forces...
