Some players of Bayonetta 3 have found amusement in a cat that appears to be sitting in a very unnatural position. Cats frequently appear in Bayonetta 3, but this one stands out due to its unusual stance.
After years of waiting, fans were relieved to see Bayonetta 3 released at the end of October. Kamiya, the game’s director, has lately expressed gratitude to Nintendo for their support in making Bayonetta 3 a reality.
A gamer of Bayonetta 3 recently posted a screenshot of a kitten they discovered in the game. Throughout Bayonetta 3, players can encounter cats, and capturing them will net them a reward. However, most of the game’s feline inhabitants flee quickly if they see Bayonetta coming and require her to chase after them. Submitted by user Dangerous Fan1090, this one appears to be settling in for a nap after a hearty meal since it is seated erect in a humanlike position and is staring at the floor between its hind feet.
Dangerous Fan1090 expressed concern for the kitty and asked for advice in the post. In the comments, concerned fans were sarcastically reassured that the cat was only resting in the peculiar upright position that some genuine cats adopt from time to time. Another user compared the Persona 5 character Morgana as having a habit of striking the same place. Others have noted that the cat appears to be the same as PlatinumGames‘s Astral Chain, which is developing alongside Bayonetta 3.
After so many years, fans and critics finally gave Bayonetta 3 an essentially good reception. But the game didn’t come out until after it had already been the subject of some heated debate. Hellena Taylor, the original Bayonetta’s voice actor, said that her role had been recast in the weeks following the game’s release. But as more details emerged about her accusations, she asked supporters to skip the game and give the money they would have spent to organizations, including one that opposed abortion.
