THE BUZZ: Alex Jones, co-producer for DmC, has revealed that the title will be in direct competition with Platinum Game’s Bayonetta.

Bayonetta was known for its free-flowing and accessible combat system, an area which the DmC team hopes to improve on. ”You always want to go out there and beat your competitors to a degree, but what I’d say is that there are places where we’re squarely competing with Bayonetta, and that’s on how does the game feel when it’s in your hand,” Jones told Official Xbox Magazine.

EGM’s TAKE: With similar combat models it’s no surprise that similarities are already being drawn, but can the team improve?
