Bubble Bobble 4 Friends first debuted in Europe last November. We’ve been waiting to hear about when the North American release will be taking place, which thankfully is just around the corner.

Publisher ININ Games announced today that Bubble Bobble 4 Friends is coming stateside on March 31. It will be sold both physically and digitally.

Here’s an overview of Bubble Bobble 4 Friends, along with a trailer:

The popular dragons Bub and Bob are back! Bubble Bobble 4 Friends is the latest game in the legendary Bubble Bobble series from Taito.

Play alone or with up to 3 friends in couch co-op mode and jump your bubble dragons through 100 levels to defy the wicked magician Bonner and his henchmen. The bubbles don’t just let you trap your opponents, either – your dragons can also jump on them to reach higher platforms.

Collect E-X-T-E-N-D bubbles to activate and upgrade skills, such as lightning and bomb bubbles. Develop countless new strategies to travel through the worlds and take advantage of air currents.

The original Bubble Bobble arcade game from 1986 is also included, which captured the hearts of players around the world and still has fans humming its title melody today.

A celebration for fans and fun for the whole family!
