    Decent for a bomberman game, Updated frequently and brings the genre to a next level. A lot of map and more to come, graphic wise is also decent. Very fun to play with friends and also very unique. Big improvement for the franchise and definitely my favorite Bomberman game.

    el mejor juego de bomberman que ha salido. simplemente me encanto, no tiene mucho contenido en modo multijugador mas que los mapas especiales y los sombreros pero dado que konami esta actualizando el juego e incluyendole nuevas cosas la experiencia de juego va mejorando cada dia mas. solo espero que salgan las mascotas :)

    Un juego divertido y entretenido para jugar en grupo. El modo versus permite partidas de 2 a 8 jugadores, es sencillo hacerse con el control e ideal para partidas rápidas.

    El modo historia también está bastante bien y se puede jugar en cooperativo.

    Le he puesto un diez para compensar la nota media tan baja que tiene actualmente y que no refleja en absoluto la calidad del título.

    Very good game with pretty graphic for a Bomberman game :) The story mode with 50 level (playing in coop mode) its very good and challenging !! The multiplayer is very cool on local or online ;) Perfect party game ;)

    As someone who long lost interest in the Bomberman series and wasn't putting any faith at all in this game, I was pleasantly surprised. Good characters, good humour, good gameplay, all things that I never expected to see again from a ip owned by Konami, seing their recent distancing from games as a whole. It's a good experience if you like Bomberman games.

    Excelente video juego, muy recomendado para todos los amantes de la saga bomberman, también lo recomiendo a los que desean conocer más acerca de esta fabulosa saga.

    A classic I recommend the best for now in video games. If you are bored of those games with a bestial graphics and running slow in the most powerful consoles in the market. And they walk at 30 fps and at 1080p. Buy this game you will only have fun for hours and try the online mode to play without stopping .....

    This is an amazing game and tons of fun with friends. Great launch title for the Switch and great to have Bomberman back! Some of the negative reviews are around price. If you buy through Best Buy with their GCU discount of 20%, you can get this for $40 vs. $50. This makes the game worth it. Although its very good, don't pay $50.

    Fantastic Multiplayer, 100% recommend. If you own a switch this is a must have multiplayer game. Konami should keep making games like this. I don't remember the last time I had this much fun playing with family and friends, but this game sure made me have tons of fun.

    This game is along the lines of what I was hoping for in a Bomberman game. I am not terribly familiar with the franchise but there is no denying this one does it justice. On playing in the middle difficulty, the game is quite a challenge. Some might even have their work cut out for them in easy mode! The graphics are nice, i have no idea how people expect a sweeter package than this. TheThis game is along the lines of what I was hoping for in a Bomberman game.

Some might even have their work cut out for them in easy mode! The graphics are nice, i have no idea how people expect a sweeter package than this. The online mode is a bit funny placing you in the "baby league", you would have to play this game for hours on end just to be good enough to get out of the starting class, which might be what the game was intended for.. something you can sink hours into. Its hard! I put some time into it but as I mentioned before, I'm no Bomberman pro. I'm currently investing my time in another Switch title many are familiar with, but I intend on spending a great deal of hours getting good in this one! Can be good for a party game for sure, although 50 dollars is a bit steep for something to play so casually. Jumping into online mode and playing free battle is quite fun. Music is great. With 50 levels and an online league and updates in the future, its titles like this that keep me paying attention to video games Expand

    For me as a bomber man fan it is absolutely great to play again with my friends. Hope that the price will go down to something like 29.99 or 19.99 so more people can enjoy it. :)

    Bomberman is back, with the classic gameplay along with a Story mode , filtered through a 2d/3d isommetric reworking of the original gameplay styles featured on the Snes, nes N64 and Wii.

    Power ups return from previous games, and the appeal and timeless gameplay is pretty self explanatory here. As a home console game and portable multiplayer system out of the box, it represents the

    Power ups return from previous games, and the appeal and timeless gameplay is pretty self explanatory here. As a home console game and portable multiplayer system out of the box, it represents the strong appeal this IP represents for single and local multiplayer. Having a 2 joy con controllers out of the box with the Switch is very helpful, allowing 2 players from the get go...

    Playing through multiple modes and taking on bosses is a blast (i dont recall the boss battles being this fun in the early ones).

    Along with Zelda Breath of The Wild and 1-2 Switch, this is one of the 3 essential launch titles.

    Another great Bomberman game to add to the collection. This one supports up to 8 players. So far i have only played with 2 players and it was fun yet somewhat challenging. Boss fights are awesome when playing story mode with friends. The only downside is the price, maybe £10 cheaper would of been a better selling point.

    Absolutely amazing / fun / colorful and down right one of the best games out. This is why Nintendo is number one. Great graphics and online multiplayer is so much fun. Story mode is also a real treat.

    Bomberman is back in a great game like his classics, that means it's a great game with lots of fun and entertainment for many hours alone or with friends.

    Great game in which to inspire future developments 9/10

    Pros-
    Fun gameplay
    Good graphics
    Great Multiplayer

    Cons
    Boring Story

    I got it for multiplayer, not for the story, so I love it. Still not a 10 though.

    El juego regresa a sus raíces, muy entretenido y con un componente cooperativo muy interesante.
    Conforme ha pasado el tiempo ha recibido algunas actualizaciones que han mejorado notablemente la experiencia.

    Es un juego muy muy entretenido y puedes pillar un buen vicio de 3 jugadores en adelante, ya que puede jugar hasta 8 jugados con una misma consola, tiene un modo online que si encuentras 3 personas para jugar tambien te puedes entretener mucho, lo malo es que normalmente online encuentras 2 o 3 personas. Cualquiera que alla conocido los primeros bomberman le sacara mucho provecho a este juego

    This game is actually awesome. You got excellent graphics, lots of different modes, tons of new characters (I mean come on, who doesn't wanna play as Snake) and even online... even though the matchmaking is slow as **** sometimes.

    Crazy, competitive multiplayer game for up to 8 players, but not too complex for casual players to pick up and play. Highly recommended.

    Pretty good game for the return of Bomberman after all this time. Apparently there's problems with multiplayer, but the online appears to be dead so I wouldn't know. The local co-op and single player modes are great however, and the inclusion of other Konami characters as skins is amazing.

    I enjoyed Bomberman's return. The gameplay is still solid, the multiplayer is fun and what they were going for in the story is enjoyable. Of course the english voice acting could be better (the weakest being the voices of White, Red, Yellow and Plasma bomber) and the online mode is laggy as hell to work properly.

    Switch's hardware makes it the most social Bomberman ever, but it's stubbornly old-school. [Apr 2017, p.65]

    Fly-proof Bomberman's gameplay never grows old. Even this time it works out well, despite the occasional stumbles over confusing arenas. The biggest issue of the game is its outrageous price.
