Supercell, the developers of the game, teamed up with Nickelodeon's SpongeBob SquarePants to "reimagine the world of Bikini Bottom inside the game."

As part of the takeover, iconic SpongeBob SquarePants characters have been reimagined as Brawlers, including a muscle-bound El Primo SpongeBob and other fan-favorites such as Patrick, Mr. Krabs, Squidward and Sandy. Brawls will take place on the new Bikini Bottom game map and special, temporary power-ups will provide increased damage, like the Krabby Patty, Clarinet and Kelp Soda.

Meanwhile, themed game modes bring fresh gameplay and chaos, such as in Jellyfishing where players battle to catch jellyfish.

Bringing SpongeBob into the world of Brawl Stars has been on our radar for a while. The worlds of Bikini Bottom and Starr Park complement each other well and considering our community’s love for SpongeBob memes, we were confident our players would like to see a collab happen! It's been super fun to see our team bring this to life and be part of this special 25th anniversary for the SpongeBob franchise, said Frank Keienburg, Brawl Stars General manager.

To launch this partnership, Supercell tapped American actor and professional wrestler John Cena to further pump up the rollout with his signature energy and charisma.

As a longtime fan of Supercell games and having watched SpongeBob for years, there was definitely a nostalgic component that drew me to the partnership. SpongeBob inside Brawl Stars is absolutely wild and I’m all for it - it’s the epic entertainment tag team fans have been waiting for! Cena said.

Brawl Stars can be downloaded on iOS and Android.
