Platinum Games adds its witch as Japanese pre-order incentive

Bayonetta will be an unlockable character in the studio's forthcoming fighting game, Anarchy Reigns. The catch? Platinum Games is using its shapeshifting witch as an Anarchy Reigns pre-order bonus in Japan. That being said, Sileconera pointed out Bayonetta's cameo was first rumored on the western (Spanish-language) website Zonared, indicating the offer may be extended outside of Japan's borders. It's a stretch, but here's hoping.

The cross-over makes sense considering Anarchy Reigns is a Platinum Games project. Even if Bayonetta isn't added to the western version beforehand, odds are Sega will sell her as DLC at a later date.
