Konami will be adding new characters from various Konami franchises - including Silent Hill's Pyramid Head - to Nintendo Switch exclusive Super Bomberman R.
Announced alongside a free DLC drop released today, a future update will add costumes based on Vic Viper from Gradius, Simon Belmont from Castlevania, and Pyramid Head from Silent Hill. A solid release date and whether these characters will cost any money have not been revealed yet.
It's not the first time Pyramid Head - the frankly terrifying manifestation of Silent Hill 2's protagonist's punishing guilt for the death of his wife - has been used in a... strange context; he has appeared as a playable character in New International Track and Field, as well as Krazy Kart Racing on mobile.
Today's free Bomberman update adds four new stages for Battle Mode: Lagoon features a moving floor which can be used to reach a higher level. White Cross is a crossroad map with slippery floors, Power Zone has all players starting with maximum firepower, and Speed Zone has, you guessed it, all players starting with maximum speed.
There are also two new accessories, a Crown and a Bomb, unlocked using gems acquired in-game.
Other changes to the game in the latest patch include being able to change the AI's level of difficulty, and you can now change the camera angle in Story mode. You can also now play Battle Mode at 60 frames per second, and a number of other minor bugs have been fixed.
A separate "significant upgrade" came to Super Bomberman R last month to fix various control problems. In IGN's review of the game, we said it's "impressive in some areas and disappointing in others."
