The Super Bomberman R 2 release date has been revealed. You can expect the latest adventure starring everyone's favorite explosives expert to drop on consoles and PC on September 12th physically, with digital versions of the game becoming available the following day.
As the name suggests, Super Bomberman R 2 is a followup to 2018's Super Bomberman R. Konami is promising the "largest content volume in the series' history" for this new installment, although it's not entirely clear whether the developer means Bomberman as a whole or just Super Bomberman R. You can check out the release date announcement trailer for Super Bomberman R 2 right here.
Just like its predecessor, Super Bomberman R 2 will offer several modes of play. Standard mode is pretty much classic Bomberman, while Grand Prix sees two teams facing off against one another for supremacy. Battle 64, meanwhile, supports up to 64 players, who will battle against each other. Only one bomber can emerge victorious.
New play modes include Castle, an asymmetrical mode in which one side must defend a castle while the other side besieges it. There's also a new Stage Editor function that lets you build your own Super Bomberman R 2 stages for the game's new Castle mode. You can then upload and share those stages with players around the world. Try to give them something to think about, eh?
Super Bomberman R 2 will launch for PC via Steam, as well as PlayStation consoles, Xbox platforms, and Nintendo Switch, on September 12th physically and September 13th digitally. Naturally, there won't be any physical versions available for PC, so if that's your chosen platform, you'll be restricted to digital. You can add Super Bomberman R 2 to your Steam wishlist here if you want to keep up with everything that's going on with Konami's new party game.
