Bayonetta Origins code lets you unlock hard mode from the start

Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon offers up a bit of challenge to players, but there’s always gamers who want every experience to be as difficult as possible. While Bayonetta Origins does let you access a hard mode, you have to beat the game once to unlock it. Well, at least that’s what we originally thought!

PlatinumGames has revealed that you can unlock Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon’s hard mode with a special code called the Platinum Code. This means you can start the game from the very beginning with the highest level of challenge.

To use the Platinum Code, head go the main menu and input ‘↑ ↓ ← → X B Y A’ and you’ll hear a jingle. This means you’ve unlocked hard mode and you’re ready for a true challenge!
