Kamiya shared the following in a video recently published on YouTube:

“All the games I create exist in the same single universe: the Kamiya-verse. This question specifically mentions Bayonetta and Devil May Cry, but for me, Viewtiful Joe, Okami, and The Wonderful 101 are all part of the same universe. Everything is interconnected, so please let your imaginations run wild.”

Bayonetta, Devil May Cry, Okami, Viewtiful Joe, and Wonderful 101 are all part of the same universe

Creator of Bayonetta, Devil May Cry, Okami, Viewtiful Joe, and Wonderful 101 comments on how they're all part of the same universe.

I'm sure he has blocked all of them in every multiverse.

 

[Thicc Enigma]

WTF

 

[Mister Wolf]

Bullshit.

 

[adamsapple]

Bullshit.

 

[bender]

 

[Sharius]

yeah, yeah, yeah... whatever, after MCU, "same universe" become less meanful because everyone just want to jump on the bandwagon

 

[Esppiral]

It doesn't make any sense, but whatever floats his boat.

 

[Labadal]

Nah.

 

[Robb]

 

[Grizzled Ghost]

Ridley Scott levels of retconning.

 

[N0S]

 

[cireza]

The Drunk Universe.

 

[March Climber]

Death Stranding is in the post-post-post-post MGS future…but it takes place before Zone of the Enders.

 

[nowhat]

So, the first DmC was supposed to be Resident Evil 4 (yeah, really, go look it up). Does this mean Resident Evil is in the same universe as well?

 

[AREYOUOKAY?]

Unless there's a Viewtiful Joe 3 I don't believe you block man.

[kevboard]

Bayonetta 3 is a multiverse story, so Bayonetta can easily be part of any universe really...

but how the fuck does Wonderful 101 and DMC fit even remotely into the same universe?

Viewtiful Joe and Wonderful 101? easy match, W101 could just be set like 300 years after VJ.

Okami... Okami could be part of Bayo or DMC set in the past in some ghost realm or something... I guess...

Pretty pointless him even saying it unless there’s some game series that’s going to cross over into another. I really don’t care what universe or world a game is set in unless there’s a reason for them to clash as long as the game is fun that’s good enough for me. I don’t sit theorising about how they all connect even more so after the endless capeshit that revels in which universe is linked to what lol I’m really not that invested.

I mean yeah if you are 10 and still at school it’s the kind of pointless shit you can talk about in the playground.

 

[Scrawnton]

You mean... Earth?

 

[Sintoid]

The Failureverse

Its DMC

 

[SSfox]

Another Marvel fan i see

 

[Skifi28]

It all makes sense now.

 

[Holammer]

Hard to imagine this little shit ruined how people think of in-game universes.

 

[Hudo]

I like the Kamiya Multiverse much more than the MCU.

 

[Interfectum]

 

[Little Mac]

I guess we should just be happy that Viewtiful Joe was mentioned? Maybe there is hope for a remake or remaster.

 

[Lambogenie]

Alright.

Outside of Easter eggs it's not like you're gonna get Viewtiful Joe in a canon role riding Amaterasu to victory.

But DMC and Bayonetta, that probably should happen in 2010s.

 

[Madserb2023]

I can see how Bayonetta and Devil May Cry can be in the same universe. They obviously both contain demons, angels etc. Okami is more tenuous. It also has demons but of the Japanese folklore kind. Wonderful 101 lol.

 

[adamsapple]

Hard to imagine this little shit ruined how people think of in-game universes.

I hate that I read it in this guy's squeaky ass voice.

 

[proandrad]

Is this the guy y’all want in charge of the Devil May Cry remake? Shared universe for all these games would be retarded.

 

[Tams]

What a load of bullshit.

DMC and Bayonetta make sense, I guess.

Bayonetta could fit into Okami given 'Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon' exists (and is criminally underrated).

 

[TerribleAtThisGame]

I did not know they sell crack in Japan. Interesting.

 

[Alebrije]

 

[Sebastian1295]

I want him to explain in detail then how exactly that's supposed to work except he won't do so because he knows that it makes 0 fucking sense.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Bullshit, dmc is a capcom IP and bayo is sega.
This is like james gunn saying his scooby do, guardians of the galaxy and superman movies are in the same universe because he wrote them.

If he wanted these games to actually share a universe, he should've stayed with capcom.

 

[Kacho]

 

[hemo memo]

Yeah, also Resident Evil and Vanquish share the same universe.

 

[proandrad]

Kamiya does not share the same universe as reality.

 

[kiphalfton]

After he left Platinum, would figure he has no right to talk about any of that stuff.

Nintendo not going to crack down on him and tell him to shut his trap?

 

[AREYOUOKAY?]

Wonderful 101? I doubt they care anymore after it got ported elsewhere.

 

[Reaseru]

Aka "The Blocked Multiverse".

 

[poodaddy]

Viewtiful How and Wonderful 101 I totally see. Rest of em? Eeehhhhh, if ya say so boss.

 

[PatientGamer]

this 'Dante' reminds me of Kawaki from Boruto.. unbelievably annoying

 

[FoxMcChief]

 

[FoxMcChief]

So basically……

Kamiya:

Well speaking of Sega and them owning Atlus now.

Though as you say it’s best not to think too deeply about it otherwise you’ll end up connecting way too many things with each other.
