How to unlock the Beat Expert achievement

    Since the Switch release added Character abilities with Grand Prix mode the devs were at least kind enough to let function work in the main game.

    Pyramid Head (and also Arbiter from the latest update) have the ability to kill an enemy with their blade at the cost of speed. This works wonders in campaign. Press cn_A as an enemy approaches to use your ability to just stab them with ease.

    Continues are very costly on Expert and it's recommended you grind gems before attempting this difficulty. If you don't wish to pay for a continue you can always close the game and relaunch to not get sent back to the start of the World if you can't afford the continue. This won't bring back all your lives like a continue will but gives you a chance to progress a little further.

    For reasons I'm not sure after paying for so many continues the game starts offering free continues. I believe this is because your star rating drops down to 1 star but we aren't trying to 3 star every world so this is more than a lucky break.

    There is 6 world's in the game before you hit the credits. This version launched with the Switch's 7th world title update which is where the devs have set this achievement to be unlocked. So you must hit the second credits sequence before awarded the achievement.

    Difficulty doesn't stack unfortunately. So unless you're experienced in Bomberman I'd work your way up to this.

    Co-op is local only but you share lives with your friend so unless they are experienced I'd go it solo. If you do bring a friend having a tag team of Arby and Pyramid Head will help cut up all the enemies quickly.

    Some characters like Alucard can dodge bomb blasts if you get the timing down but I feel our Melee characters are best suited for the job. Though they won't cut through boss fights.

    Good luck and enjoy. This game isn't quite Saturn Bomberman good but their attempt at making another game similar to the SNES games turned out great imo and after all the title updates adding extra content I feel the game has just gotten way more meatier.

    New ParalyzerIs that how the free continues trigger? I really should sit down and finish this campaign.

    NBA KirklandYes, IIRC! Makes it easy.

    SpeciallyTDerpExactly as NBA Kirkland said with the free continues, but note this only applies per planet. So make sure you have 1200 before attempting a planet.

    There are 7 worlds that have 9 stages and a two part boss battle at the end. After beating the boss in world 6, the game will end but the achievement will not pop. You have to go back into story mode and continue. Now world 7 will be available to play. Sadly playing on Expert difficulty first will not unlock the beginner difficulty or the Veteran achievement like other games do, so you will have to play the story three times if you wish to unlock all the achievements.

    heatlightI can confirm that you need to beat all levels on each difficulty to unlock the achievements, simply beating level 7 does not work.

    KINGDAVIDXLIs expert difficulty Hard to Beat?

    SincereSeeker6I really didn't notice a difference in difficulty from the other settings. The bosses have more health, and supposedly the enemies are "tougher" (whatever that means), but the only major difference is that you get five lives instead of seven or nine.
