THQ Nordic dropped a trailer last Halloween, featuring humorously spooky scenes from their past fewSpongeBob SquarePantsgame releases, ending with a tease that “An all-new adventure awaits.” While there doesn’t seem to have been much in the way of additional news about the game since the teaser, this could certainly be the game that was being referred to.
