SUPER BOMBERMAN COLLECTION NINTENDO SWITCH 2 EDITION is a redartgames.com (Europe) and VGP (North America) exclusive.

Developed by Red Art Games’ internal development studio and published by KONAMI digitally, SUPER BOMBERMAN COLLECTION is a compilation of the five Super Bomberman games originally released for the Super Nintendo, two of which have never been released outside of Japan until now. This compilation also packs in tons of extra content including the first ever Western release of puzzle spinoff Super Bomberman Panic Bomber W (included as a free software update on Nintendo Switch), full versions of Bomberman and Bomberman 2 from the Famicom, a brand new Boss Rush Mode, a music player with songs from all six Super Bomberman games, a gallery featuring hundreds of art pieces and numerous quality of life features (save states, rewind, etc.).

The original animation cels used in the 1990s to create the games’ box art, manuals and official guides were scanned and used on SUPER BOMBERMAN COLLECTION’s physical editions to pay tribute to the classic 16-bit games.
