SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide Gets New Gameplay Trailer, Release Date Confirmed for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2

THQ Nordic and Purple Lamp have unveiled a brand-new gameplay trailer for the highly anticipated SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide, solidifying its release date for both Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Switch 2.

SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide is set to launch on November 18, 2025, with a retail price of €39.99 / $39.99.

Pre-orders are now live across major digital platforms, including the Nintendo eShop, offering classic fans and new players alike a look into the latest undersea adventure. The newest trailer introduces fan-favorite characters Dirty Dan and Pinhead Larry, as they join the iconic battle against Hibernation Sandy.

Players catch their first glimpse of a reimagined, frost-laden Jellyfish Fields — an all-new environment preceding the climactic ascent to Mount Bikini.

This fresh footage showcases the game’s blend of humor and action, promising an experience true to the beloved SpongeBob universe. SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide emerges as a cross-platform title, coming to both Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, in addition to other major hardware.

Developed by Purple Lamp, who previously delivered the well-received SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated and SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake, the new entry builds upon a strong legacy of SpongeBob-themed platformers. The official synopsis provided by THQ Nordic highlights the new adventure’s tone and scope: "Prepare for a spooky journey filled with nautical nonsense as the egos of the Flying Dutchman and King Neptune clash, unleashing ghostly havoc across Bikini Bottom.

Only SpongeBob and Patrick, joining forces and unique skills, can hope to prevent their world from becoming entirely spectral.

Players will traverse iconic locations, contend with formidable bosses, and, of course, focus on having plenty of fun." Multiple digital and collector’s editions are available to suit all fans.

Digital pre-orders unlock the exclusive Natural Costume Pack DLC.

The Standard Edition features the base game, while the Digital Deluxe Edition adds the Tidal Season Pass, which includes two brand-new challenge DLCs ('Plankton’s Portal Challenge' and 'Search for SquarePants') and two themed costume packs.

The Ultimate Edition takes it further, bundling the base game, Season Pass, Natural Costume Pack, and full versions of Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated and The Cosmic Shake, as well as additional DLC content. Collectors can opt for the Ghostly Edition, featuring a digital deluxe version of the game alongside premium items such as an exclusive Steelbook, collectible patch, themed keychain, and lenticular prints—ideal for fans looking to commemorate the latest SpongeBob adventure. With its November 18, 2025, launch, SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide marks another milestone for the franchise and continues the successful collaboration between THQ Nordic and Purple Lamp.

Whether on the current Nintendo Switch or the next-gen Switch 2, fans have plenty to look forward to when pre-orders and new gameplay are available for this eagerly anticipated platformer.
