Rumours are abound that amidst SEGA's restructuring, Platinum Games' Bayonetta 2 has been declared a casualty and left to rot. Lead designer Hideki Kamiya got tired of questions.

"I have had it," he twittered. "I'm not Sega man. Ask Sega." Fortunately for fans, producer Atsushi Inaba decided on a more tongue-in-cheek response by tweeting a mock concept artwork.

"We've heard all the rumors on the net. What do you guys think? Too bad it got cancelled, huh?" teased Inaba-san. He posted a pic of Bayonetta with a crude 2 over it.

There's a definite goal at Platinum Games to work on a sequel to Bayonetta but it might be having some trouble if SEGA are getting paranoid over finances. Designer Hideki Kamiya said back in January 2010 he'd like to explore a spin-off or at least revisit Bayonetta's world "from a different angle" than the original.
