Bomberman Wars (ボンバーマンウォーズ) is an entry in the Bomberman series of games. Released in 1998, it was the last out of three games in the series released for the Sega Saturn. A PlayStation version was also released. Neither version left Japan.

This one makes a huge departure from other games in the Bomberman lineage - it is a tactical RPG. As it uses an isometric perspective, it is often confused with Saturn Bomberman Fight!!, released a year earlier which was also exclusive to Japan.
