In a surprising turn of events, Hideki Kamiya, the co-founder of the renowned PlatinumGames, announced his resignation, effective from 12 Oct 2023. With a legacy that includes the creation of iconic titles such as the Devil May Cry and Bayonetta series, Kamiya's influence in the gaming industry is undeniable. Before his tenure at PlatinumGames, he was instrumental in directing the original Resident Evil 2 during his time at Capcom, a testament to his versatility and prowess in game development.

The future holds much anticipation as to where Kamiya's next venture will take him. Drawing from VGC's recent article and insights from Wikipedia, it's evident that his departure marks the end of an era for PlatinumGames. A tweet from PlatinumGames' official Twitter further confirms this monumental shift. With over 30 years of gaming experience, I've seen many industry stalwarts come and go, but Kamiya's impact remains unparalleled. Which Bayonetta iteration resonated with you the most?
