Konami and Mediatonic revealed a two-way collaboration between Bomberman and Fall Guys. The two companies will add new content from each franchise to both games. [Thanks, Game Watch!]
Mediatonic will add a Bomberman-inspired costume to Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout on June 4, 2021. Players will be able to get the special costume by trading in 10 Crowns. (Each half of it will cost 5 Crowns.)
Likewise, Konami will add a new character inspired by the Jelly Beans in Super Bomberman R Online. It will put the Bean Bomber into the in-game store for the players to obtain.
Both games have been known for including characters inspired by many other franchises. Before this reveal, Mediatonic had added Fall Guys costumes based on DOOM, Sonic the Hedgehog, and the Vtuber Kizuna AI.
Super Bomberman R, the predecessor to the new online version, was also known for adding the WWE wrestler Xavier Woods and platform-exclusive characters, such as P-body, Master Chief, and Ratchet & Clank.
Super Bomberman Online R is just available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC. It is also playable on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X through backwards compatibility. Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout is currently only available on PC and PlayStation 4. Devolver Digital and Mediatonic will release the Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X versions in Summer 2021.
