Bikini Bottom just bubbled up onto Nintendo’s newest console. SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide has officially dropped a free demo on the Nintendo Switch 2, giving fans a first chance to explore this spooky, silly, sea-soaked adventure ahead of launch. THQ Nordic and developer Purple Lamp are kicking off excitement early, inviting players to test-drive the ghostly escapade starring our favorite fry cook and his pink best buddy, Patrick.
The full game lands on November 18, 2025, but Switch 2 players can start exploring today. And yes, pre-orders are now live.
A Sneak Peek Into a Spooky Underwater Quest
The Titans of the Tide demo lets fans dive into a brand-new chapter in SpongeBob history. Expect supernatural twists, salty giggles, and the kind of slapstick chaos that feels right at home in Bikini Bottom. This early look is packed with surprises, ghoulish goofballs, and the signature humor that has made SpongeBob a cultural treasure for over two decades.
It is an undersea ghost story, which means floating jellyfish, bubbly hauntings, and plenty of nautical nonsense.
Pre-Order For Exclusive SpongeBob And Patrick Cosmetics
Players who lock in their Nintendo Switch 2 preorder will snag the Natural Costume Pack, giving SpongeBob and Patrick special themed outfits. It is a charming bonus that lets you style your heroes to match this eerie underwater romp.
Pre-orders are also available across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, so land-dwellers without a Switch 2 can still secure their spot in this spectral splash-fest.
