Super Bomberman Collection Shadow-Dropped on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2
Konami has delivered a major surprise for fans of classic multiplayer action with the unexpected launch of Super Bomberman Collection on both the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2.
This comprehensive collection arrives as a shadow drop, immediately available for download via the Nintendo Switch eShop.
The release caters to both retro enthusiasts and new players by delivering a curated selection of entries from the long-running Bomberman franchise. Announced and released today, Super Bomberman Collection compiles seven iconic titles from the Bomberman legacy.
Included in the set are Super Bomberman 1 through 5 for Super Famicom/SNES, as well as the original Famicom versions of Bomberman 1 and Bomberman 2.
Notably, the collection features the first-ever localized versions of Super Bomberman 4 and Super Bomberman 5, making them newly accessible to fans outside of Japan. In a statement from Konami, the publisher emphasized the “explosive fun” awaiting players, highlighting the added content that rounds out this retro package.
One of the standout features of Super Bomberman Collection is the debut of a brand new Boss Rush mode, offering added challenge and replay value for veterans and newcomers alike.
To enhance the multiplayer experience, the collection includes GameShare functionality, allowing up to four players to participate using just one copy of the game—a nod to the series’ enduring reputation for its engaging party gameplay. The compilation doesn’t just focus on gameplay, however; as is standard with modern collections, Super Bomberman Collection features an extensive gallery of artwork and in-game music, accessible directly from the main menu.
This archival approach gives longtime fans a chance to enjoy the legacy of the Bomberman series in new ways, while newcomers can appreciate the development and artistry behind the franchise. Super Bomberman Collection is now available on both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 via the eShop, strengthening the Bomberman brand’s extensive presence on Nintendo hardware.
The collection follows in the footsteps of recent Bomberman releases, reinforcing Konami’s commitment to its classic IP and providing a new generation with access to some of the greatest party battle games in video game history. With seven distinct games and twelve unique versions, Super Bomberman Collection is poised to become an essential addition for Nintendo Switch library owners.
Fans can look forward to revisiting the beloved chaos and strategy that have defined Bomberman for decades, all while enjoying newly added features that bring fresh life to these timeless classics.
