SpongeBob SquarePants Tower Defense, the #1 top-earning licensed/branded game of all-time and a 2025 Roblox Innovation Award winner for Best Use of IP, drops new in-game content, extending its run of 70+ consecutive weeks of weekly updates (200,000+ peak concurrent users; a top 15 earning experience for 12 months running).

Since its launch on July 17, 1999, SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS has generated a universe of beloved characters, pop culture catchphrases and memes, theatrical releases, consumer products, a Tony Award-winning Broadway musical and a global fan base. SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS is one of the most widely distributed properties in Paramount history, seen in more than 180 markets, translated in 30+ languages and averaging more than 90 million total viewers every quarter. SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS was created by Stephen Hillenburg and produced by Nickelodeon in Burbank, Calif.
