Update 1.2.0 to the rescue
Just this past week,Platinum released the first major post-launch update forBayonetta 3, and it was a doozy. Not only did it address some long-running concerns from the community for a few encounters (and Viola’s moveset), but it also directly impacted a really low key aspect of the game: the playable teaser for the upcoming releaseBayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon.

Accessing theBayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demondemo is much easier in 2023
As the Nintendo of Europe Twitter account pointed out this weekend, once you have the new update (1.2.0) installed, you’re able to just buy the Old Picture Book from the Gates of Hell shop: no keys or added steps needed! Prior to the update,after buying the book, you needed to locate three hidden keys spread across several chapters of the game (Chapter 1, 4, and 13).
This takes me back to the bygone era where demos were king, and sometimes were selling points all on their own. While theBayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demonitself is very brief, it’s cool to see more free unlockables in games, sans DLC. The action genre is the perfect host for it.
