Sega Hints at Bayonetta for Steam Through Elaborate Easter Egg

8-Bit Bayonetta Release Teases Bigger Plans from Sega

Take this with a grain of salt, but Sega has released a free 8-bit Bayonetta mini-game on Steam, and it contains clues.

Bayonetta 8-Bit

Specifically, thereโ€™s an Easter egg tucked away in the gameโ€™s Steam achievements. Diligent players can unlock portions of an image. Said image contains a URL. This one, right here. The page contains nothing but a picture of Bayonettaโ€™s boot-guns and a countdown.

Whatโ€™s revealed in ten days? We canโ€™t be sure, but the consensus (read: fondest hopes) points to a PC release of the first game in the series. Yes, today is April Foolโ€™s day, but cโ€™mon! The countdown ends way, way into April! Surely this is the real deal and not some elaborate and cruel hoax. Either way, weโ€™ll know what Sega has planned once the countdown runs its course. In the meantime, thereโ€™s always the aforementioned wacky little mini-game to pass the time.
