The free-to-play title from Konami, Super Bomberman R Online, was originally slated to be a Google Stadia exclusive, but in March this year it was announced that it was coming to Nintendo Switch, Steam, and PS4 later this year. Now, the developer has shared the release date and the title will be hitting the eShop in all of its cross-play goodness on the 27th of May! It’s a 64-player battle royale game and a new character called Old Snake Bomber will be available via Season One; check out the awesome crossover in Konami UK’s tweet below.
So excited for this! I just hope the netcode is better than the original SBR back in 2017 when it was a Switch launch title.
I’m glad to see this coming up, but I was hoping for a brand new Bomberman game after four years of R. I guess the Bomberman revival wasn’t quite what I thought it was going to be.
