Stuttgart, Germany - February 2nd, 2023 - ININ Games, together with TAITO Corporation, is happy to finally reveal two new features of Bub and Bob's new adventure, which will officially release digitally on May 23rd, 2023 for Nintendo Switch, with a boxed edition available for preorder at Iningames.com!

One vs. One Online Multiplayer

In this new Puzzle Bobble title, you will be able to play one vs. one online battles against players from all over the world. Ratings and classes will go up or down depending on the results of your wins and losses, so improve your skills and aim for a higher class!

Using the "Password Matching" function, you'll also be able to play online with friends anywhere in the world-- as long as they, too, have set up the password!

Online play requires a (paid) subscription to "Nintendo Switch Online."

On Friday, February 3rd, TAITO will release a video featuring some details of the online battle mode, actual gameplay, and a message from the development staff and from the title's protagonist, Bub. The video will premiere on Bub's YouTube channel, "Bub's Broadcast," starting at 11:00 CET on Friday, with English subtitles. Before that time, a short trailer is available for you at the same link, starting from today, 14:00 CET.

PUZZLE BOBBLE VS SPACE INVADERS

But that's not all! Puzzle Bobble Everybubble! also includes a very special game crossover: PUZZLE BOBBLE VS SPACE INVADERS, perfect to celebrate the 45th anniversary of one of the games that made arcade history, and, to be fair, most of our childhoods. In this mode, players try to erase the bubble-encapsulated Invaders by stacking three or more bubbles of the same color together, whilst avoiding the Invaders' shots. Bubbles can only be fired straight up, so players have to move their characters left and right, just like in the universally beloved arcade game.

Up to four players can play cooperatively.

To find out more about the latest chapter of TAITO's universally-beloved series, you can visit Puzzle Bobble Everybubble! official website, ININ's Game Page, or the official "Bub's Broadcast" channel on YouTube!

ININ's social media channels also provide periodic updates and additional information on this bubbly release!

About Puzzle Bobble:

Puzzle Bobble (a.k.a. Bust-A-Move) is an action-puzzle game where the brothers Bub and Bob, who have been transformed into bubble dragons by a wizard's spell, go on a bubble-bursting adventure. The classic gameplay formula is simple but addictive: using various items and gimmicks, connect three or more bubbles of the same color to remove them from the field and progress. A spin-off from the 1986 arcade hit Bubble Bobble, Puzzle Bobble/Bust-A-Move has seen over 20 series titles across countless platforms since its 1994 debut. As the sole owner of Bubble Bobble and Puzzle Bobble's worldwide IP including copyrights and trademarks, TAITO will continue to expand both properties going forward.
