You know when you can just tell a game is going to be a ton of fun? This all-new SpongeBob Squarepants: The Cosmic Shake trailer is exactly that. The 3D platformer was showcased during THQ Nordic's big livestream, and new footage reveals new levels, animals to ride, fun platforming, and that classic SpongeBob humour. We especially enjoy how SpongeBob will glide on a pizza box when he's presented with a great height. Check the trailer out above.
Interestingly, a retailer listing handed the game a 24th January 2023 release date, but this wasn't confirmed during the event. We'll have to wait for more information on that front, but a PS4 launch next year definitely seems likely at this point. And remember: there's no PS5 version. You'll be playing this one via backwards compatibility on Sony's latest system.
"SpongeBob and Patrick are travelling to a multitude of different Wishworlds, each with its very own setting and rules, like the Wild West Jellyfish Fields or the Halloween Rock Bottom," a press release reads. If you want some SpongeBob action now, don't forget the Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated remaster was included in PS Plus somewhat recently. Give that a download for some fun platforming and item collecting in preparation.

Oh yeah, they also “announced” a South Park game after the end too but it wasn’t really an announcement, they just kinda confirmed that one was coming
Other than that, this game looks pretty good!
Well this looks great! Love these sorts of mascot platformers and Spongebob may not be as great as it once was but it has a rich history to draw from.
@nessisonett Agreed, this game looks like so much fun.
Finally, a SpongeBob project that doesn't look like its pissing on Stephen Hillenburg's grave.
This looks pretty cool, but man, I was hoping for a jrpg-esk kind of spin. All I'm saying is, how did we get a decent Steven Universe rpg before a Spongebob one?
We need more of these double A releases like in the PS2 games that look good and are fun to play i miss these things.
Had a ton of fun getting the Plat in Rehydrated when it was on plus so I'll for sure pick this one up.
It almost looks like a sequel to Battle for Bikini Bottom, a good chunk of the moveset looks carried over from that game, which is a good thing.
This looks good, but parts of it look like they could be very challenging for younger players. This appeals to them so I hope they have some type of accessibility options in place for them.
Very happy to have a new spongebob game to play with my kid
@HeeHo @Enuo @nessisonett Agreed! Really excited to know the SpongeBob game license seems to be in good hands with THQ.
I may just buy this game day one, whenever it finally releases.
@Dpishere That's because it is the sequel to the Battle for Bikini Bottom remake/remaster!
