Bomberman lets you play online with up to 8 players, with monthly tournaments and content updates, customizable characters and bombs.

Created specifically for Xbox LIVE Arcade, the all-new "Bomberman Live" delivers social gaming excitement with high definition graphics, four-person local multiplayer and eight-person online multiplayer over Xbox LIVE. And to show there is no Bomberman out there quite like yours, players now have over 10,000 unique ways to fully customize their Bomberman.

In "Bomberman Live," players guide their unique Bomberman around a grid-like arena, avoiding opponents and their bombs while attempting to bomb the competition. "Bomberman Live" features eight multiplayer arenas including Lost World, where players can sink in puddles of quicksand, and Ghost Town, where players can fall into trap doors. By destroying blocks, players can reveal 16 different power-ups (and power-downs!) from the simple "Speed Up" to the devastating "Dangerous Bomb."

“We are awed by the enthusiasm and excitement of Bomberman fans everywhere,” says Sabine Duvall, Vice President of Digital Download at Hudson Entertainment. “Watching fans have fun with Bomberman and each other in this classic, fast-paced action game has been truly rewarding. The success of Bomberman LIVE is a testament to the longevity of the Bomberman series, which has entertained fans of all ages on nearly all platforms and continues to do so.”
