Super Bomberman R 2 review

System: Switch
Release date: September 13, 2023
Developer: Konami
Publisher: Konami


When the Switch first launched back in 2017, the original Super Bomberman R was a launch title. While it may have been outshined by The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild also releasing on the same day, a lot of owners ended up picking up the title as a go-to for multiplayer gameplay. Now way further down the line in the Switch’s life cycle, the sequel appears with a brand new story and new modes for multiplayer in the form of Super Bomberman R 2.

Super Bomberman R 2 launch trailer

Super Bomberman R 2 is now here on Switch, and thanks to Konami, we have a launch trailer.

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1

Konami today unveiled its full lineup for the 2023 Tokyo Game Show.

The company will have various games on display, including Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 – which will be playable. Other titles like Super Bomberman R 2 will also be here.

A number of partner titles will also be at the Konami booth, including Ys X from Falcom.

Here’s the full TGS 2023 lineup from Konami:

Suikoden I&II HD Remaster Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars delayed

Konami has announced that it has delayed Suikoden I&II HD Remaster Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars.

Previously, the collection was on track for 2023. Now, however, Konami is not specifying any sort of time frame – it’s simply TBA.

Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 frame rate resolution

Konami has provided details on what to expect from the frame rate and resolution of Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 across all platforms, including Switch.

For Nintendo’s console, the package will run at 30 frames per second. Resolution in docked mode comes in at 1080p. For handheld mode, it’ll be native 720p.

Super Bomberman R 2 Fall Guys

Konami today announced a special collaboration for Super Bomberman R 2, with Fall Guys set to be featured in the game. You’ll be able to play as “Bean Bomber”, it’s been announced.

The character will be available at launch and can be obtained through the in-game shop. Bean Bomber is accessible is each battle mode.

Castlevania Advance Collection physical

Today, Limited Run Games announced that it’s working on a physical release for Castlevania Advance Collection on Switch. 

This appears to be one of the company’s products that does not have a special edition. Fans will only be able to pick up a standard boxed copy.

Super Crazy Rhythm Castle

Super Crazy Rhythm Castle is on the way to Switch, publisher Konami and developer Second Impact Games just announced. The title does not yet have a release window.

Super Crazy Rhythm Castle is a character-based rhythm adventure game in which players go on an adventure through a bizarre castle, with a cruel king hell-bent on throwing them off rhythm. The game can be played alone or with up to three friends.

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 rumor

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 was confirmed for Switch earlier this week, but Konami won’t be stopping there as Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 is happening as well. This package is also apparently planned for Switch, and it looks like the lineup has been revealed.

Twitter user Nitroid discovered placeholder buttons within the official website’s source code. Specifically, these are for Metal Gear Solid 4, Metal Gear Solid 5, and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. IGN reports that the lineup here is accurate.

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 physical download

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 will indeed be receiving a physical release – which isn’t surprising since Konami has pretty much always done that for the series – but collectors won’t be happy to hear that much of it requires a download.

Almost nothing appears to be included on the actual cartridge. It does contain 2.4GB of data, but it sounds like players will essentially need to download most of the actual content. The site mentions 24.1GB that’s needed, and then if you’re interested in the bonus videos, that’s another 30GB.
