It seems like it was only two years ago when Taito released the first co-op console entry in the Puzzle Bobble/Bust-a-Move series, Puzzle Bobble Everybubble. That's because it was two years ago! The only major downside to Everybubble is that it was a Switch exclusive game. Other people want to play Puzzle Bobble too! Well, now some of them can, because Arc System Works has just published Puzzle Bobble Everybubble on Steam. It still features 4-player local co-op and 2-player online versus battles, not to mention plenty of bubble-popping puzzles.
Puzzle Bobble Everybubble takes place on the Rainbow Island, home to the mysterious Rainbow Tower. There, miniature dinosaurs called Miniroons come under threat, and only Bub, Bob, Peb, and Pab, the stars of the Bubble Bobble series can help. The game will feature a 4-player co-op story mode as well as Battle Mode. All modes feature the series’ traditional puzzle gameplay in which players fire bubbles from the bottom of the screen at the stacks of colored bubbles that descend from the top of the screen.
