SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake is an upcoming platform game based on the Nickelodeon animated series SpongeBob SquarePants. Developed by Purple Lamp Studios, who had previously developed the title SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated, it will be published by THQ Nordic. It is set to release for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
Gameplay
The Cosmic Shake is a 3D platformer.[1] As SpongeBob, the player navigates through several distinctly themed worlds, known as ''Wishworlds" within the game, with the aid of Patrick, who has been transformed into a balloon.[2][3]
Development and release
The Cosmic Shake is being developed by Purple Lamp Studios, who had previously developed the title SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated.[4] The project was greenlit following the commercial success of Rehydrated, and is conceptualized as a spiritual sequel to that game. While Battle For Bikini Bottom had three playable characters: SpongeBob, Patrick and Sandy, each with one or more special abilities. For The Cosmic Shake, Purple Lamp decided to focus solely on SpongeBob and giving him a lot of new abilities. Unlockable costumes were made a core focus of the game.[5]
THQ Nordic first announced the game on September 17, 2021, as a part of their tenth-anniversary showcase.[6] THQ Nordic unveiled a new trailer, featuring gameplay, at the end of their games showcase on August 12, 2022.[7] The game is set to release on Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.[8]
