You might want to start saving now for its non-specific &#8216;2020&#8217; release date, though, because they won&#8217;t come cheap &#8211; especially the F.U.N. Edition.<\/p>\n<p>The first of the two bundles is the Shiny Edition. You can view it the trailer at the top of the page and it includes the following:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>An 8&#8243;\/20cm SpongeBob Figurine with Golden Spatula and flexible tongue<br \/>Wallstickers<br \/>6 Lithographs<br \/>SpongeBob SquarePants tennis socks<br \/>The Game itself<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>SRP: $149.99\/\u20ac149.99\/\u00a3139.99<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Not bad &#8211; quality statuettes can cost you an arm and a leg. The pricier F.U.N. Edition, which you&#8217;ll see in the trailer below, includes all that plus some extras:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>An 8&#8243;\/20cm SpongeBob Figurine with Golden Spatula and flexible tongue<br \/>A 7&#8243;\/18cm Figurine of Patrick<br \/>The Sandy 8&#8243;\/20cm Figurine<br \/>Wallstickers<br \/>A set of Tiki Keyrings<br \/>6 Lithographs<br \/>SpongeBob SquarePants tennis socks<br \/>The Game itself<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>SRP: $299.99\/\u20ac299.99\/\u00a3259.99<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<aside class=\"object object-youtube\">\n<div class=\"youtube\">[youtube https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=QFlhBlR3zHM?rel=0&amp;hd=1&amp;showinfo=0&amp;modestbranding=0&amp;autohide=1&#038;w=900&#038;h=507]<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>The statues and assorted goodies certainly look lovely, but then again the F.U.N. set costs roughly the same as a Switch! Still, die-hard Spongebob may well be tempted by these treasure troves. The pre-orders are up now, although the game has no fixed release date just yet.<\/p>\n<p>If you missed the original announcement of the remake back in June, here&#8217;s a summary of the salient points from the official blurb:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8211; Play as SpongeBob, Patrick and Sandy and use their unique sets of skills<br \/>&#8211; Thwart Plankton&#8217;s evil plan to rule Bikini Bottom with his army of wacky robots<br \/>&#8211; Meet countless characters from the beloved series<br \/>&#8211; Faithful remake of one of the best SpongeBob games ever created<br \/>&#8211; High-end visuals, modern resolutions and carefully polished gameplay<br \/>&#8211; Brand new horde mode multiplayer for up to two players, online and offline<br \/>&#8211; Restored content that was cut from the original game like the Robo Squidward boss fight and more<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><\/blockquote>\n<figure class=\"picture strip\"><a title=\"Swag\" href=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/afccd52f8e966\/swag.original.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/static.nintendolife.com\/blank.gif\" data-original=\"http:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/afccd52f8e966\/swag.900x.jpg\" alt=\"Swag\"><\/a><\/figure>\n<p><em>Are you fan enough to splash out on these special submarinal editions?
