Going in For the Kill

Bayonetta is an adrenaline-pumping, high-octane action game from Platinum Games, the developers behind MadWorld for the Nintendo Wii. All it takes is one look at Bayonetta in action to realize that it was created by some of the same folks who worked on Devil May Cry.

According to our Brighthub Bayonetta Review, the game rocks as much as one would guess, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to get through. For those that are having trouble, here’s a handful of Bayonetta cheats to help you through your day.

Bayonetta Cheats

These aren’t your typical cheats. They’re activated from a certain spot in the game, rather than at the title screen or some sort of cheats menu. Also, they aren’t free! Bayonetta cheats will cost you halos, which act as the game’s form of currency.

After Verse 3 of Chapter 2, you should come across some telephones in the plaza. These phones can be used to input codes. The one next to the stairs is for weapons, the one on the right is for accessories, and the phone at the far end of the plaza is for unlocking characters. After you correctly enter a cheat, you’ll lose a certain amount of halos.

I’ve sorted these Bayonetta cheats by cost.

- UP, UP, UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, Y - Costs you 1 million halos and will get you the Bazillions weapon.

- UP, UP, UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, B - 1 million halos will unlock Jeanne.

- UP, UP, UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, A - 1 million halos will get you the Pillow Talk weapon.

- UP, UP, UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, RB - 2 million halos will get you the Eternal Testimony accessory.

- UP, UP, UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, LT - 3 million halos and this cheat will get you the Bangle of Time accessory.

- UP, UP, UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, RT - 5 million halos and this will get you the Climax Bracelet accessory.

- UP, UP, UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, X - 5 million halos will unlock the Little Zero character.

UP, UP, UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, LB - 5 million halos and this Bayonetta cheat will unlock the Rodin weapon.

Bayonetta Cheats: Bonus Lollipop

This cheat is unconfirmed, but it’s easy so it’s worth a mention. In cutscenes where Bayonetta is holding a lollipop, the color of the lollipop corresponds to a face button on the Xbox 360 controller. Reportedly, if you hold that button down, you’ll earn a lollipop for your inventory. No idea how long you’re supposed to hold it down, so good luck!

The chest with the third part is in the rest area.

You can find it before getting the second key and rotating the ball. The second part is dropped by the enemy warships near the astronomy device. The third part is near the shop portal after escaping the golem on the crumbling road. Near the portal, there’s a holographic bridge going up.
