Unannounced SpongeBob SquarePants Game Leaked by Not 1 but 2 Age Ratings

Did you know that a new SpongeBob SquarePants game was on the way called SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide? Beyond a very gentle tease late last year neither did we, but the unannounced game has popped up on a couple of rating boards, suggesting we’ll get an official reveal soon.

As spotted by Gematsu, Titans of the Tide has been rated in both South Korea and Germany, with the former rating it as suitable for those aged 12 and over, and Germany classifying it as suitable for children aged six and up. In South Korea, the 12+ rating was given due to “minor violence” and “explosions and minor bodily harm.” According to USK, the German classification body, SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide is coming to PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X and S; interestingly, there’s no mention here of Nintendo Switch 2.

As we hunker down ready for a weekend of reveals and announcements, it’s possible this news has leaked a little prematurely than THQ Nordic’s preferred schedule, and we’ll hopefully find out more over the next few days. Watch this space…

There have been loads of SpongeBob SquarePants games over the years across a whole raft of genres, from Monopoly to tennis to kart racing. Most recently, though Patrick took center stage in SpongeBob SquarePants: The Patrick Star Game. We thought it was a mediocre 5, writing in our review: “SpongeBob SquarePants: The Patrick Star Game is a simple, physics-based adventure that, despite its charm, lacks the heart to make a splash.”

For all the news coming out of Summer Game Fest and IGN Live this weekend, we’ve got you covered.
