Script error: The function "nihongo_foot" does not exist. is a 2026 video game compilation developed by Red Art Games and published by Konami. It compiles seven 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.

Features

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), for a total of seven games.[4] The Super Bomberman games are playable in both Japanese and English; Super Bomberman 4 and 5, 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

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]
