Bayonetta specializes in a unique form of combat called Bullet Arts, supplementing her melee strikes with a huge variety of firearms strapped to her arms and legs. To top it all off, she can channel magic as black as her hair to unleash terrifying Wicked Weaves!

Bullet Arts


In days of old, the Umbra Witches practiced the deadly Bullet Arts – a devastatingly graceful form of combat using weapons attached to all four limbs, seamlessly mixing melee and ranged attacks. Masters of Bullet Arts were unstoppable assassins who could take down any foe at point-blank range, and Bayonetta is the heiress of their style.
It doesn’t stop at firearms, either. Bayonetta has an entire arsenal of swords and even more exotic weapons right at her fingers – and toes, too.

Custom Weaponry


Bayonetta starts off with Scarborough Fair, a set of four pistols custom-built for her by Rodin, the underworld’s hottest weaponsmith. As you progress, you’ll unlock a wide range of weapons, from guns, to the katana Shuraba, to the wicked whip Kulshedra, each with its own unique characteristics for you to master.

A witch’s brew of action!


Bayonetta’s Wicked Weaves are powerful attacks from unholy demons, manifested in our world through Bayonetta’s long, luxurious locks to raise a little hell against an army of angels. Master Wicked Weaves to unleash powerful attacks against your enemies. When they’re caught off guard, turn the tables by trapping them in cruel Torture Attacks – think of it as payback for the Inquisition! And transform yourself into powerful animal forms for greater mobility by releasing the Beast Within.
