Konami has revealed that Super Bomberman R Online, the spin-off of Super Bomberman R previously exclusive to Google Stadia, will soon be coming to Switch and other consoles.
Inspired by Bomberman R, which you must remember was actually a Nintendo Switch release title, this Battle Royale game first appeared on Stadia last September. The Switch release date has not yet been announced, although we were told that we expected “soon” and that it would be a free digital title to play.
Here is a synopsis if you need to be informed:
As Bomberman returns with the gameplay that made the franchise a party game classic – blow up battlefields, find hidden power-ups and use them to fend off enemies – the action in SUPER BOMBERMAN R ONLINE reaches new levels with “Battle 64 mode ”. Offering an original real battle experience, up to 64 players are spread across 16 initial battlefields. As levels are cleared and players are reduced, the number of battlegrounds continues to decrease until the final final battle to be the last standing bomber.
SUPER BOMBERMAN R ONLINE brings more than 100 combinations of customizable features, including various outfits, accessories and, for the first time, bomb skins – affecting both the bomb and the explosion itself. Players can further distinguish themselves from the rest with the optional Premium Pack, giving access to 14 additional bomber characters that pay homage to classic KONAMI IPs, such as Gradius, Silent Hill, Castlevania and more!
We will be looking for more news about this release in the coming weeks, but until then, let us know if you want to check out the Switch with a comment.
