Being two highly-respected series, who did not think that a new Bomberman and Bonk would arrive on PSN? Well, now they are.
And guess what? They aren’t ports, as they are new titles in their series! Bomberman Live: Battlefest will feature modes such as Capture the Flag, VIP, and Team modes. It will also have some new power-ups for you to harness.
Bonk now has current generation in its veins, coming with co-op plus online play. Here are the full details for both titles.

A doomsday comet, surrounded by smaller chunks of debris, is on a collision course with Earth. A strange magnetic field around the comet seems to be driving most of the planet’s weak-willed creatures crazy, and smaller bits of debris are smashing into the jungle near Bonk’s home.

VIP
