Noriaki Okamura, director of Super Bomberman R, assures that the Japanese company is preparing an announcement related to the character of Bomberman.
Noriaki Okamura, one of Konami’s regular names and recent director of Super Bomberman R, has been asked by Famitsu magazine about the company’s plans and ambitions for 2021. And even the publication itself has been surprised by the answer Okamura, who has had no major qualms about revealing part of the future of it, ensuring that news about Bomberman will be announced very soon. The designer was commenting that their goal for 2021 was to learn from the past and they were insisting that they had just released an ideal game for the holidays (Momotaro Dentetsu: Showa, Heisei, Reiwa mo Teiban !, with a slight name), when suddenly it has changed its name. subject and has surprisingly assured that “there are also plans to make a new announcement related to Bomberman soon. Please stay tuned!”
The truth is that, after two decades in which the strange thing was to see him star in less than two games per year, the mythical Konami character has been missing for a while. Since 2010 we have had to settle for seeing him in Super Bomberman R (2017) and the multiplayer version of it, Super Bomberman R Online, which came out on September 1, 2020, is a temporary exclusive to Google Stadia (where it comes free with the Pro edition of “the console”) and allows games of up to 64 players at the same time in what amounts to a kind of battle royale mode. Let’s hope that the news promised by Okamura are not limited to the release on consoles and PC of Super Bomberman R Online, celebrating with a little more grace the 37th birthday of the little creature in 2021. And in case the news leaves you with Bomberman jumpsuit , we leave you 5 reasons to try his latest installment, surely the best way to wait for the announcement.
