Angel Attack! is a mini-game that is played after every completed Chapter. In it Bayonetta, Jeanne, or Zero are given a limited amount of bullets and tasked to shoot Angels in a shooting gallery-style arcade game. The player receives nine bullets every time they play, plus three more for every Arcade Bullet collected during the Chapter.
The game ends when all bullets have been fired, after which the player can trade their points for Items or Halos, with 100 Halos awarded for each point earned. The game can also be ended early, at which 200 Halos will be awarded for each remaining bullet.
In all versions of the game, in order to skip the starting cutscene of this minigame, players have to push the Evade button and the Game Menu button (the one that brings up the Weapons, Accessories, etc. menu) at the same time.
