SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide
Are you ready, kids? THQ Nordic and developer Purple Lamp are thrilled to announce SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide, a new single-player 3D platforming adventure within the SpongeBob SquarePants franchise coming soon to PC, PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2™. When the Flying Dutchman and King Neptune’s egos collide, the result is pure undersea chaos: spectral mayhem spreads across Bikini Bottom, and only two brave(ish) heroes can set things right. SpongeBob and Patrick must team up, combine their unique skills, and (hopefully) stop the total ghostification of their world.
