Publisher ININ Games and developer Taito have announced Parasol Superstars, a new collection of both Parasol Stars and Spica Adventure.

Parasol Superstars is set to launch on September 16th worldwide for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, PS4, and PS5. A physical release for Switch and PS5 is planned.

While Parasol Stars: The Story of Bubble Bobble III has been available digitally for modern platforms since 2023, Spica Adventure will get a standalone modern digital release on September 30th.

Here’s a rundown on the new release, plus a trailer:

Get ready for a double dose of platforming nostalgia and charm as two beloved titles come together in one vibrant package. “Parasol Superstars” unites the classic bubble-blasting acclaimed adventure Parasol Stars with the cosmic, retro-inspired platformer Spica Adventure – new to western gamers –  delivering hours of arcade-style action and timeless fun.

Originally released as the third entry in TAITO’s legendary Bubble Bobble series, Parasol Stars brings back fan-favorite characters Bubby and Bobby in a whirlwind quest across fantastical worlds – armed only with magical parasols. It’s colorful, chaotic, and full of the quirky energy that defined an era of gaming.

Joining the bundle is Spica Adventure, a fast-paced space odyssey starring Nico, a fearless girl exploring the stars. Long considered a hidden gem, Spica Adventure was previously available as a japanese phone game and later available in arcades – and never released outside of Japan. For the first time ever, Western players can enjoy this unique title on home platforms, complete with enhancements and extras.

Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering these gems for the first time, Parasol Superstars invites players of all ages to jump, spin, and splash their way through joyful, fast-paced worlds.
