News: Taito has put a new spin on the classic Puzzle Bobble game putting it in a three dimensional world.

Sony recently held a PSVR Day event and one of the titles to come out of it was Puzzle Bobble 3D: Vacation Odyssey. In collaboration with Taito, this reimagined classic features the same vibrant design, adorable characters, and the timeless puzzle-solving gameplay as the original, now for the first time bringing the franchise into a three-dimensional world.

In Puzzle Bobble 3D: Vacation Odyssey, fans can enjoy a visually enhanced, VR gameplay experience from the recently launched Oculus Quest title, Puzzle Bubble VR: Vacation Odyssey. Additionally, the bubble-popping adventure will allow even more Puzzle Bobble fans to join the fun with non-VR gameplay support on PS4 and PS5.

“Reintroducing Puzzle Bobble, with its iconic puzzle-solving and new three-dimensional spin to today's players, has been a labor of love for Survios,” said TQ Jefferson, CPO and Head of Studio. "As our first Cross-Reality title, Puzzle Bobble 3D: Vacation Odyssey on PS4 and PS5 will provide players around the world the option to play the way that suits them best, with or without a virtual reality headset!”

Puzzle Bobble 3D: Vacation Odyssey offers multiple gameplay modes, adding a new element to the classic Japanese franchise. Players can solve up to 100 three-dimensional puzzles in Story Mode; Infinite Mode provides an endless challenge for players chasing high-scores; and Duel Mode is a fast-paced 1v1 online battle, supporting Quickmatch across PS4, PS5 and PS VR.

Puzzle Bobble 3D: Vacation Odyssey will be compatible with Move controllers and Dualshock 4 for VR gameplay. For non-VR gameplay, the Dualshock 4 will be supported on PS4, and the Dualsense will be supported on PS5.
