I have to say that Super Bomberman R Online is actually a pleasant surprise. Like Tetris 99, it takes a classic and injects it with a modern twist to bring it to life once more.

In Super Bomberman R, the simple rule remains the same: operate Bomberman, place bombs, and battle with enemies & rivals, but it’s coming back in a modern style with 3D stages and photo-real graphics.

Super Bomberman R Online can be fun to play with friends, but slow matchmaking times, frequent glitches, and the unfair advantage given by paid DLC characters along with a lack of key information given for beginners make it difficult to call it a good battle royale game.
