The bubble-popping phenomenon is officially making its way to PC. Arc System Works, in collaboration with Taito Corporation, has announced that the latest entry in the iconic franchise, Puzzle Bobble Every Bubble!, will launch on Steam on Thursday, April 23, 2026.
This latest installment brings the beloved bubble dragons, Bub and Bob, to the vibrant "Rainbow Island." The setting serves as the backdrop for a brand-new adventure sparked by a wizard’s curse that has submerged the world in bubbles. While the game stays true to the addictive "match-three" core mechanics that fans have loved for decades, it introduces several groundbreaking features that elevate the classic experience.
A Series First: Four-Player Co-op
For the first time in the history of the Puzzle Bobble series, players can tackle the Story Mode together. The game supports co-op play for up to four players, allowing friends and family to strategize and clear stages as a team. Whether you prefer the solitude of a solo puzzle-solving session or the chaotic energy of a full group, the game scales to match your preferred pace.
Expanded Modes and Collaborations
Beyond the central story, Every Bubble! is packed with diverse content designed to keep players engaged:
Scal Tower: An endless-stage mode that tests your endurance and speed.
Puzzle Bobble vs. Invaders: A unique crossover that pays homage to Taito's legendary Space Invaders heritage.
Competitive Play: The Steam port includes robust online matching, allowing you to climb global leaderboards. Locally, the game supports up to four players in various configurations, including intense 2-vs-2 tag matches.
How to Play
Arc System Works continues its global expansion with this release, following the successful opening of its European subsidiary in Paris. Fans can head to the Steam store page now to add the title to their wishlist ahead of the April 23 debut. For content creators and media, review keys are currently being distributed via the official request form.
Get ready to aim, shoot, and pop—the colorful world of Rainbow Island is almost here.
