'''PlatinumGames''' ({{ja|プラチナゲームズ株式会社|Purachina Gēmuzu Kabushiki Gaisha}}) is an independent Japanese video game studio. The developer was formed from the remnants of Clover Studio, a now-defunct [[Capcom]] subsidiary that created critically acclaimed but commercially unsuccessful titles such as the ''Viewtiful Joe'' series, ''Okami'', and ''God Hand''. Under their new company name, they have developed a range of action-based titles for other publishers, such as the original {{uv|Bayonetta}} for [[Sega]], ''[[Metal Gear (universe)|Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance]]'' for [[Konami]], ''NieR: Automata'' for [[Square Enix]], and several titles for [[Nintendo]]: the ''Bayonetta'' sequels (of which Nintendo wholly owns the publishing rights), {{uvm3|The Wonderful 101}}, ''[[Star Fox (universe)|Star Fox Zero]]'', ''Star Fox Guard'', and {{uvm|Astral Chain}}.
