There are always some telltale signs that a game is prepping for its release, these being a game going gold, and the title also officially being verified by age rating certification boards. Assigning an official rating means you\u2019ve had to determine a rating from a game\u2019s content, but the contents would have to be finished first, or near enough. An investigative Tweet from user The_Marmolade on July 12, 2022, saw that the ESRB had given Bayonetta 3 an official age rating.
