Fans of the Bayonetta series should already be pretty familiar with Umbran Tears of Blood. For those who are new to the franchise though, they're effectively a series of collectibles. In previous games, finding every Umbran Tear would unlock a powerful accessory known as the Climax Brace, but things are a little different in Bayonetta 3. Now, finding all three of a chapter's Umbran Tears will unlock a secret chapter known as a Phenomenal Remnant, with each Bayonetta 3 chapter having its own unique remnant.

It's worth noting that none of Bayonetta 3's side chapters have Umbran Tears, nor does the game's final chapter, The Single Truth. As a result, there are 39 Umbran Tears for players to collect in total. These are all bound to familiars known as the Midnight Crow, the Shadow Cat, and the Ichor Toad, with players needing to find and catch these creatures to get their hands on the Umbran Tears. As completing Phenomenal Remnants unlocks new weapons, accessories, and, in some cases, Infernal Demons, it's well worth keeping an eye out for them.
