Bombergirl is played similarly to other Bomberman games. Two four-player teams play the game at a time and control one of several different characters, in matches where the goal is to destroy the other team's base. The players can place bombs, as well as use character-specific abilities; for instance, Shiro can place several bombs, Momoko can create blocks, Oren can move quickly, and Emera can use ranged attacks. Throughout the match, characters' levels are raised, allowing the player to use special attacks such as a beam sword and a flaming sword. After a match, characters on the losing team are displayed with their clothes burned apart in a comically sexual manner. The game also features various Konami crossover characters among its original cast, such as Grim Aloe from Quiz Magic Academy and Sephia Belmont, an original character inspired by Castlevanias "Belmont" protagonists.

Bombergirl was developed by Konami. The title was revealed at the Japan Amusement Expo in February 2017 as an arcade-exclusive game, and was playable at the event. The developers intended for the new game elements the game introduces to the series to make the game fun to watch in addition to fun to play. A Microsoft Windows version was also developed. There were two beta tests in January and November. The game was released on December 22, 2021, for Konami Amusement Game Station service.
