Rain Or Shine, It's Parasol Time! Parasol Superstars Bundle Launches Soon – Two Iconic Adventures, One Stellar Collection
May 15th, 2025 – Get ready for a double dose of platforming nostalgia and charm as two beloved titles come together in one vibrant package. "Parasol Superstars" unites the classic bubble-blasting acclaimed adventure Parasol Stars with the cosmic, retro-inspired platformer Spica Adventure - new to western gamers - delivering hours of arcade-style action and timeless fun.
Parasol Superstars launches on 16th September 2025 digital for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Xbox. The physical release will be only on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5. Spica Adventure will also get a digital only release on 30th September 2025.
Originally released as the third entry in TAITO's legendary Bubble Bobble series, Parasol Stars brings back fan-favorite characters Bubby and Bobby in a whirlwind quest across fantastical worlds – armed only with magical parasols. It's colorful, chaotic, and full of the quirky energy that defined an era of gaming.
Joining the bundle is Spica Adventure, a fast-paced space odyssey starring Nico, a fearless girl exploring the stars. Long considered a hidden gem, Spica Adventure was previously available as a japanese phone game and later available in arcades – and never released outside of Japan. For the first time ever, Western players can enjoy this unique title on home platforms, complete with enhancements and extras.
Parasol Superstars offers:
???? Two complete platforming adventures
???? The classic Parasol Stars, faithfully restored with modern enhancements
???? Spica Adventure, finally making its home console and Western debut plus modern enhancements and features
???? Optimized for modern platforms with controller support and quality-of-life features
????♂️ Local 2-player co-op in Parasol Stars
