Some time after this, Bayonetta and the rest of the main cast are seen doing their Christmas shopping when angels attack the city. However, Bayonetta's summonable demons go rogue and attack her instead. Jeanne sacrifices herself to save Bayonetta and her soul is dragged into Inferno. The only way to retrieve Jeanne's soul is for Bayonetta to go to Inferno herself. With the assistance of Enzo and Rodin, Bayonetta finds a portal in Fimbulventr and travels to it. On the way, Bayonetta meets a young boy named Loki who has powers similar to herself. Loki has no memories, so Bayonetta agrees to work with him to get his memories back. They both eventually come across Loptr, a mysterious masked Lumen who seems to know who Loki is. Loptr shows Bayonetta a vision of the past, which reveals that Balder was not responsible for the witch hunts and in fact tried to save Rosa before her death. The real killer was a mysterious figure that looked like Loki, but the vision ends before the identity was revealed. Bayonetta makes her way through the real Gates of Hell and defeats the demoness Alraune, who took Jeanne's soul. As Jeanne slowly revives, she tells Bayonetta that something big is about to happen. During all of this, Loki is attacked by a masked Lumen, who is revealed to be a young Balder from the past. As they fight, Loki releases a big shockwave that sends everyone to the time of the witch hunts. Bayonetta meets an alive Rosa, and both fight of the angels. The true killer is revealed to be Loptr, who was the real mastermind behind the witch hunts. Back in the present, Loptr reveals that he and Loki are two halves of Aesir, the god of chaos. Loptr takes control of Loki and becomes Aesir. But Bayonetta and Balder defeat him, with Jeanne destroying the physical body of Loptr. The soul of Loptr attempts to kill everyone one last time, but Balder forcefully absorbs Loptr in order to confine him. This would eventually turn him into his evil self, but before he corrupted fully, he told Bayonetta to kill him if it came to it. Loki, having fulfilled his purpose, fades away, but says he might return when he reincarnates again. Afterwards, Bayonetta and Jeanne continue with some after holidays shopping, but are interrupted by another angel attack.

''Bayonetta 3'' reveals that the previous two games were only one of many multiverses, each possessing a different world with a different Bayonetta. In this game, an enemy named Singularity attempts to conquer and destroy the entire multiverse with his reality warping abilities. It takes the combined efforts of many Bayonettas, including the primary versions from all three mainline games, to take down Singularity and restore the multiverse to its natural state.

Personality-wise, Bayonetta is strong-willed, cocky, and flirtatious, and she always has a snarky comment on any situation she finds herself in. She is also shown to be very impatient with foes who give long-winded speeches; she will often become irritated and interrupt especially long tangents. However, despite being a witch who uses the powers of Inferno to kill angels, Bayonetta has a strong sense of morality. She may appear caustic and abrasive, but she is very loyal to those she cares about, including Rodin and Jeanne. When Jeanne's soul is stolen away in the second game, Bayonetta physically enters Inferno to save her.

Bayonetta returns in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' as a playable character, retaining both of her designs based on her appearances in ''Bayonetta 2'' and the original ''Bayonetta''. Unlike ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', she is now available in the base game as an [[unlockable character]]. Likely due to her status as a top tier character in the previous installment, Bayonetta was heavily [[nerf]]ed in her transition to ''Ultimate'' (evidenced after {{Sm|MkLeo}} performed a [[ladder combo]] with her in front of [[Masahiro Sakurai]] during the [[Super Smash Bros. Invitational 2018]]). She now has much more [[lag]] on a lot of moves, a slightly less flexible combo game, and shortened reach on her Bullet Arts.
