Are you ready, kids? SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off now available on Switch

Today, Tilting Point announced that its console port for SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off is now available on Nintendo Switch. This version has been revamped from the original mobile game, with unique gameplay powers and additional DLC available as well as a full retail experience.

In SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off, players cook delicious nautical meals as they interact with Mr. Krabs, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy and many other familiar faces. Fans will visit famous SpongeBob landmarks like the Krusty Krab and Sandy’s Treedome, collect and customize outfits for their favorite characters, design and upgrade their own versions of Bikini Bottom’s seven restaurants, and cook up grub across 400 story levels on their journey to be the best fry cook under the sea. Redesigned for the platform, the Nintendo Switch system exclusive “Extra Krusty Edition,” features platform exclusives, including four unique cooking powers, challenges and additional downloadable content.

Prior to its mobile launch, SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off saw immediate success and fan excitement with more than 17 million pre-registered players, the strongest pre-registration performance of any Nickelodeon game ever. At launch, it was one of the top 10 most downloaded games on iOS in 97 countries, and 79 countries on Google Play — reaching the top 100 grossing in 66 countries on iOS and eight countries on Google Play.
