UPDATE: The Super Bomberman R update is now live and includes the following:

・Two new series of accessories have been added to the shop (Crowns, Bombs).

・The frame rate of the entire game has been improved. We also made slight adjustments and improved the controls as well.

・Less lags are likelier to happen when every participant in the Online Battle have good network connection.
(If you want to find opponents with good connection, set Other > Basic Settings > Network Settings to the very left.)

・Made it possible to press L/R to change the inclination of he map in the Story Mode. Other > Basing Settings will also allow you to fix the camera position as well.

・You can now choose the strength of the COM on the Multiplayer Battle Mode.

・The strength of the Five Dastardly Bombers on the Story Mode have been adjusted.

・The difficulties of Beginner and Normal have been reduced, making it easier to beat them.

・Adjusted the heights and slopes on some maps to improve the visibility.

・If you continue a certain number of times in the Story Mode, you will be able to continue without paying anymore gems.

・Changed the BP (Battle Point) increase/decrease rate for the League Battle.

・Fixed other various small bugs.

Super Bomberman R had a few problems at its launch, such as controller lag issues and a lacking number of stages. The game’s already seen one patch to improve the lag, and it looks like another is due out later today to address other concerns. A tweet from the official Japanese Bomberman account announced it, stating that the game will see some overall quality tweaks, difficulty adjustments, and a new stage.

It’s great to see them taking the time and effort to improve the game, enough so to make me want to give the game another go myself. Here’s hoping they keep it up, and I might have to work it back in more regularly.
