What are the Umbran Tears of Blood used for in Bayonetta 3?

Besides being collectibles, Umbran Tears serve another purpose in Bayonetta 3.

Finding all three animals in a level and procuring the Umbran Tears of Blood from them will reward Bayonetta with a Phenomenal Remnant. Remnants are rehashed versions of the prior levels, with just enough variety to make for enjoyable replays.

This includes time trials against enemies and new bosses and altered platforming sections that force Bayonetta to rediscover the game’s layout.

Depending on the rank you earn from these challenges, you will be rewarded with a variable amount of in-game currency that can be spent in Rodin’s shop. Items to be obtained are Witch Hearts and Moon Peals that can be used to increase your max HP and Magic, respectively. Certain Phenomenal Remnants even drop new demons and weapons for Bayonetta to use, making these challenges worth completing.
