Konami has revealed that Super Bomberman R Online, the derivative of Super Bomberman R previously exclusive to Google Stadia, will soon arrive on Switch and other consoles.
Inspired by Bomberman R, which you remember was actually a Nintendo Switch release title, this Battle Royale game first appeared on Stadia last September. A Switch release date has not yet been announced, although we have been told that we would wait “soon” and that it will be a digital-only free play title.
Here is a synopsis:
As Bomberman returns with the game that has turned the franchise into a classic of party games: explode on the battlefields, look for hidden power-ups and make them disappear from enemies. The action of SUPER BOMBERMAN R “Battle Mode 64 ”. With real-world battle experience, up to 64 players can be dealt on 16 initial battlefields. As the levels are reduced and the players are reduced, the number of battlefields continues to decrease until the final final battle to be the last standing bomber.
SUPER BOMBERMAN R ONLINE offers more than 100 combinations of customizable features, including numerous suits, accessories and, for the first time, pump skins, which affect both the pump and the explosion itself. Players can stand out from the rest with the optional Premium package, giving access to 14 additional bomber characters that pay homage to KONAMI’s classic IPs like Gradius, Silent Hill, Castlevania and more.
We’ll be waiting for more news on this version in the coming weeks, but until then, let us know if you’re interested in checking it out on Switch with a comment.
