Super Bomberman R's most significant content update yet has just gone live, bringing with it new characters, stages and items.

Three new characters are available in the shop: Vic Viper Bomber (from Gradius) Simon Belmont Bomber (from Castlevania), and Pyramid Head Bomber (from Silent Hill).

There are also four new VS stages: Conveyor Belt Classic, Panic Factory, Plain Floor, and Desert Fort. Two new series of accessories - Item and Snowflake - are also available.

Here are the other (less exciting) changes:

- Other than Battle Royale, the Team Battle is now available as a Battle Rule. In this mode, the team with the last survivor wins the match
- There are now more ways to win Gems and more Gems available (Previously Gems could only be earned in the League Battle, but now all VS modes provide Gems)
- Adjusted the movement speed of the Power Zone
- Other small bugs have been fixed
