Bomberman, also known as Dyna Blaster in Europe, is a 1990 action maze video game developed and published by Hudson Soft for the TurboGrafx-16. An entry in the Bomberman franchise, it is a reimagining of the first game in the series. The game was later ported to home computers, each one featuring changes compared to the original version. Conversions for other platforms were in development but never released. The game garnered positive reception from critics since its initial release on the TurboGrafx-16 and later on home computers.

Bomberman is considered the first video game with last man standing or battle royale gameplay.
