Super Bomberman Collection[a] is a 2026 video game compilation developed by Red Art Games and published by Konami. It compiles seven[b] early entries in the Bomberman game series, originally published by Hudson Soft prior to their acquisition by Konami in 2011,[3] with a primary focus on the Super Bomberman subseries. The collection was shadow dropped on February 5, 2026, for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S to positive critical reception.

Features

[edit]

Super Bomberman Collection includes the five Super Bomberman games originally released for Super Famicom: Super Bomberman (1993), Super Bomberman 2 (1994), Super Bomberman 3 (1995), Super Bomberman 4 (1996), and Super Bomberman 5 (1997). It also includes two bonus Famicom games, Bomberman (1985) and Bomberman II (1991), as well as the SNES puzzle game Super Bomberman: Panic Bomber W (1995) for a total of eight games.[4] The Super Bomberman games are playable in both Japanese and English; Super Bomberman 4, 5, and Panic Bomber W, which were never released outside of Japan, were localized into English for the first time for this release.[5] Players can create save states and rewind gameplay in any of the games.[4] A boss rush mode for each game challenges players to defeat all of that game's bosses in the shortest total time with limited lives.[6]

The collection allows players to configure the screen resolution for each game, as well as enable optional filters and borders.[7] Players can "unbox" 3D recreations of each Super Bomberman game's box art and cartridges from each region, as well as read their original instruction manuals.[8][9] A "BOMB Radio" option allows players to listen to each game's soundtrack and create custom playlists, and a gallery menu includes over 200 images, including artwork and behind the scenes materials.[6] All five Super Bomberman games support multiplayer for up to four players, five in later entries, with the Nintendo Switch 2 version supporting single-copy multiplayer via the system's GameShare function.[10]

Release

[edit]

Super Bomberman Collection was announced during a Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase livestream on February 5, 2026, and was released digitally for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S after the conclusion of the presentation.[11] A physical release for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 is scheduled to follow on August 25.[4][12] In addition to the standard physical edition, the game will also be available in deluxe and collector's editions containing additional physical goods.[13] An update for the collection, which will add Super Bomberman: Panic Bomber W, is scheduled for release on August 20.[14]

Reception

[edit]

Super Bomberman Collection received generally favorable reviews from critics, according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[15][16][17] Fellow review aggregator OpenCritic assessed that the game received "mighty" approval, being recommended by 93% of critics.[18]
