'Super Bomberman R Online' Servers Shutting Down In December 2022

by Rainier on June 1, 2022 @ 1:23 a.m. PDT

Super Bomberman R Online builds on the success of Super Bomberman R to offer a new and unique “Battle 64” mode for up to 64 players to compete in live battles across multiple stages, in addition to other game modes.

As Bomberman returns with the gameplay that has made the franchise a party game classic – blast through battlefields, find hidden power-ups and use them to blow away foes – the action in Super Bomberman R Online erupts to new heights with the “Battle 64” mode. Delivering an original battle royale experience, up to 64 players are spread across 16 starting battlefields. As levels are cleared and players are whittled down, the number of battlefields continue to shrink until the ultimate final battle to be the last bomber standing.

Super Bomberman R Online brings more than 100 customisable feature combinations, including numerous costumes, accessories and for the first time, bomb skins – affecting both the bomb and the blast itself. Players can further discern themselves from the rest with the optional Premium Pack (RRP €9.99/£9.99/$9.99), giving access to 14 additional bomber characters that pay homage to classic Konami IP’s such as Gradius, Silent Hill, Castlevania and more!

While anyone in the world can jump into a “Battle 64” room, the Premium Pack allows players to create their own private Room Match with rulesets that include “Battle 64” mode, “Standard” mode with up to 16 players or “Grand Prix”. Grand Prix divides players into two teams of up to 3v3 to compete in earning points, with the highest total points after the two battle rounds wins.

Initially released on Google Stadia back in 2020, followed by PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC in 2021, Konami announced that the Super Bomberman R Online servers are shutting down on December 1, 2022.

This service has continued to operate with the support of many users since its launch in May 2021, but due to various circumstances, we have decided to terminate the service on all platforms on December 1, 2022 at 01:00:00 (UTC).

The sale of Bomber Coins and Premium Packs will end at 01:00:00 UTC on June 1, 2022.
We ask that all unused Bomber Coins be used before the end of the service.
We hope that you will enjoy the game until the end of the service.

The "Bomberman" series is moving forward with new projects.
We hope to be able to inform you of this project soon.
Thank you for your continued support of the "Bomberman" series.

Super Bomberman R Online is available on Google Stadia PS4 (playable on PS5), Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam) as a free-to-play digital download.
