We already knew that a new instalment in the Bomberman series is coming after it was revealed during the Nintendo Switch launch event held in January (you can read about it here if you want to know more). This new episode will be called Super Bomberman R, and the last part of the title - the "R" - has been intriguing people, including some who speculated on its meaning over on Reddit. So, what does the "R" stand for?

We already know, for example, that the "R" in Sonic R referred to "Racing", but this time it's different. Lucky for us, Konami was kind enough to explain:

"It symbolised Returns and Reborn because this game is such a homage to SNES and SB3. But it also means Rangers, to represent the diverse and colorful group of Bomberman characters who patrol the galaxy."

We were looking for one meaning and now we've got three! That's clear and makes sense, don't you think?
