Last year, Konami‘s Super Bomberman R made a huge impact on the Nintendo Switch. But it appears that the classic hero may be exploding his way to new platforms.

Just days after we discovered evidence that he could be coming to PlayStation 4, a new product listing on the Xbox One game page suggests that he’ll soon be making his way to Microsoft’s console, just in time for summer.
The listing indicates that Super Bomberman R isset for release on June 11 on Xbox One. The game is sure to feature all of the dynamite action of the original game, but it appears we’re getting some bonus content as well.
The overview suggests that the game will offer a few pre-order items, including a Golden Vic Viper character (to go along with the regular Gradius one already included in the game), as well as “8 Shiny Bomberman Brothers,” who sound like they’ll be limited edition characters.
The listing also confirms that the game will have online multiplayer for two to four players, as well as local multiplayer and co-op support for up to eight players. So, yeah, it’ll totally be a party game.
Here are the features that were listed for the PS4 version, so more than likely, we’ll see these on Xbox One as well.
