SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake Gameplay Trailer Looks Awesome

SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake gameplay trailer THQ Nordic Digital Showcase 2022 Purple Lamp

At the THQ Nordic Digital Showcase 2022, developer Purple Lamp revealed a full gameplay trailer for SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake. It is an original game and the long-anticipated follow-up to Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated, which was a remake. The premise is that SpongeBob and Patrick obtain Mermaid’s Tears, which grant wishes, and that sounds like a good thing — but evidently they find a way to make things go very wrong. Now, you’ll travel into “Wishworlds full of knights, cowboys, pirates, and prehistoric snails,” using cosmic costumes to help you along.
