Back in June of this year, THQ NOrdic surprised SpongeBob SquarePants fans by announcing that they would be releasing a remake of the
SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom; a game that was released for the PlayStation 2 all the way back in 2003.
While the game still doesn't have an official release date — although it is scheduled to release at some poin in 2020 for the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PC(Steam) — THQ Nordic has recently announced something that make fans even more excited for the upcoming title.
THQ Nordic has just revealed the
SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated "Shiny" and "F.U.N." editions, which include a bunch of collectibles like figurines, wallstickers, and even tennis socks; because, why not?
The one thing that may discourage fans of the
SpongeBob SquarePants animated series from purchasing either the Shiny or F.U.N. editions of the game is actually their price, which can go all the way up from $150 for the Shiny edition to a whopping $300 USD for the F.U.N. edition.
SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated Shiny Edition will be including an 8"/20cm Spongebob figurine, wallstickers, 6 lithographs, Spongebob SquarePants-themed tennis socks, and a physical copy of the game; all of it for a suggested retail price of $149.99/€149.99/£139.99.
The F.U.N. Edition of
SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated will be available for a suggested retail price of $299.99/€299.99/£259.99, and will include the same 8"/20cm figurine from the Shiny Edition, as well as a 7"/18cm figurine of Patrick, an 8"/20cm figurine of Sandy, wallstickers, set of Tiki Keyrings, 6 lithographs, Spongebob SquarePants-themed tennis socks, and a physical copy of the game.
