Platinum Games has issued a short statement regarding events around the Bayonetta 3 voice actor dispute. The core message in the statement is that the abusive messages being sent to Jennifer Hale, Hellena Taylor and Platinum Games development staff need to stop. The company says that it appreciates everyone who has contributed to the series both past and present and that they give their full support to Bayonetta 3 voice actress Jennifer Hale. Bayonetta 3 launches on Friday 28th October and our review will be published in due course.
“We at PlatinumGames offer our sincerest appreciation to everyone who has contributed to creating the Bayonetta series over the years, as well as the community that has served as its foundation.
We give our full support to Jennifer Hale as the new Bayonetta, and align with everything in her statement.
We ask people to please refrain from any further comments that would disrespect Jennifer or any of the other contributors to the series.”
