Bayonetta 2

Bayonetta 2 is 2014 Hack and Slash for the Wii U, developed by Platinum Games and a direct sequel to Bayonetta.

After the events of first game, Jeanne and Cereza are living their lives on the route to Christmas as usual: buying gifts for their friends, buying caviar for the Christmas dinner, and killing angels. But Bayonetta's latest summoning, Gomorrah comes awry, and the demon attacks. Jeanne dives to save an unsuspecting Bayonetta, but this pushes her soul out of her body, and she is dragged to hell. Enraged, our heroine fights her own summon and finishes her off with a new one.

Rodin says there's no way Bayonetta could have lost control of her summoning by lack of inexperience, and it is pretty likely that this unlikely turn of events was caused by the death of Balder, the Right Eye of the World.

But the deed is done, and as the fallen angel bartender explains, Cereza only have around twenty-four hours before Jeanne's soul is completely absorbed into hell, preventing any resurrection attempt. Bayonetta pushes Enzo along so she can go to Fimbulventr, a mountain where the gates to Hell are locked.
