“PlatinumGames Can Make as Many as 9 Bayonetta Games”
Speaking with IGN, Hideki Kamiya was asked if their fans have a chance to see Bayonetta 4 or possibly Bayonetta 5.
Kamiya replied that he personally “can’t imagine the Bayonetta franchise ending”. He also intends to pitch the ideas to PlatinumGames.
I personally can’t imagine the Bayonetta franchise ending. I want to make Bayonetta 4 and Bayonetta 5, and I intend to submit them to the company. We often talk internally about how we can make 9 of them. I want people who love the Bayonetta franchise to believe me when I say, ‘I won’t do anything that will betray the players.’

Kamiya was also asked if he wanted to make a spin-off of the Bayonetta franchise, to which he replied that he “wanted” to.
I want to make a spin-off. It’s an established part of Jeanne’s character that she also works as a superhero called Cutie J. I even want to make a spin-off for that. Keeping the Bayonetta franchise going is the most important thing to me, so I’m not hung up on what numbers are attached to the game title. I want to be able to portray the vast world of Bayonetta that exists inside my head.
