Patrick the starfish from Nickelodeon's Spongebob SqaurePants series could be getting his very own video game, according to a new online listing.
For a brief amount of time, the online store 'igabiba' had a page up for "The Patrick Star Game", which is described as an open-world physics-based playground by Outright Games. Switch is supposedly one of the platforms this game is coming to alongside a PlayStation and Xbox release.
Here's the full description and a look at the game's box art (via social media):
"Patrick fans, your time has come - and Bikini Bottom is your open-world playground! You can skydive with just a parasol (or nothing at all), search for buried treasure in the Dump, or release the rage in Mrs. Puff's Rage Room. Use almost any item you find, from the reef blower to a paint can, to make the world more Patrick. And take on challenges only Patrick would attempt, set up by Spongebob, Sandy Cheeks, Mr. Krabs, and more.
So become the star of the show, put your silliest ideas into action, and enjoy the physics-based chaos that unfolds all around you!"
The gameplay description has jokingly drawn comparisons to a certain Nintendo series (yes, Zelda) that also has plenty of physics-based chaos and open-world fun. Gamescom and Opening Night Live take place later this month, so assuming this is the real deal, we could potentially be finding out more very soon.
Would you be interested in a SpongeBob game like this? Let us know in the comments.

not expecting THAT this evening thats for sure.
Alright I feel stupid asking this but what Nintendo game are you referring to? BotW or TotK I'm guessing?
Why is Outright making Grand Theft Patrick? More importantly; how?!
Wait, another games again by Outright Games ?? 😃

And the screenshot i got is the PS5 version!
Just like i want. 😊
Viva, Outright Games !! 👍
I haven't played many Spongebob games but this sounds like a cool concept. I'll wait for some gameplay though! I likely won't get this one, however I am interested to see some gameplay.
What game is being alluded to in the final paragraph?
@Wilforce : Tears of the Kingdom, maybe? 🤷♂️
I also do not get the allusion.
I hope it's a great game
Not what I was expecting to hear today lol! If it’s anything like cosmic shake I think it should be good and I would enjoy it.
@Wilforce Most likely Tears of the Kingdom.
"Is physics an instrument?"
Also, the fact the game was rated PEGI 3 indicates the violence level is really really mild for open world style game, almost like Paw Patrol World in my thought.
@Lightsiyd Thank you for helping… I was thinking Fall Guys, but that’s not exactly an open world game.
Legend of Spongebob Tears of the Patrick
Will it be about what he and SpongeBob did at Glove World before accidentally going to Rock Bottom?
I rather have a open world game starring Squidward instead, or Mr. Krabs even.
@Wilforce You're very welcome.
Outright Games, notorious for licensed shovelware trash?
And they're making a SpongeBob game with the same naming conventions as "The Patrick Star Show" everyone hates?
And the box art is the most generic thing I've ever seen?
This is gonna be so bad, man.
Remember years ago when Nickelodeon entered into a new license agreement with THQ Nordic for all their IP? This was back in like 2018 or something, Nintendo Life even reported on it. What happened to that? All we got from it was a couple SpongeBob games, and then Nickelodeon just kept partnering with other, cheaper developers without the same pedigree. Come on, man.
@Not_Soos
In my defence, games by Outright Games are not trash.

For those wondering, if you actually click on the link provided, it is clear that it is BOTW/TOTK that was being alluded to.
Hope this will be good, but personally I haven't played Battle for Bikini Bottom and Cosmic Shake yet so those will come first when I have the time regardless!
Open world physics based game starring licenced cartoons is the opposite of my taste in games. Having said that I gotta add. I love the coverart.
All I need is my good old GBC, and a copy of one of the GB SpongeBob games. I don't need all that open-world-eola-trola nonsense!
@MarioFan41
I think nothing wrong to try completely different genre from the same franchise.
I have played a lot of 3rd party games even the not so great games, but i got a lot of gaming experience.
Also, i don't think the new Patrick Starfish game will be in the same level open world games by AAA developers.
I think it will be like free roaming in a big place, imagine Sly Cooper or Go Vacation.
@Anti-Matter A lot of Outright Games "games" are shovelware, there no Heavy Iron Studios.
@RoboCube
In my defence, i have played some of the games by Outright Games on PS4 & PS5 such as Paw Patrol games, Transformers, My Little Pony, Crayola Scoot, Race with Ryan, eyc and they are NOT shovelware.
The games are playable and i quite enjoy played them despite i already knew their games are pretty decent.
I personally prefer games like this than AAA games.
@Zeebor15
Outright Games is NOT the developer.
They are publisher, they don't make the games.
Nice! I heard the Cosmic Shake was quite good, I'll have to check this out assuming it's the same team!
Hopefully its not based off his awful tv show that he got in recent years.
Why is this image sort of frightening
A Patrick star game? No thanks nowadays he's just so unlikeable to point i wish they removed him in the show but no Nickelodeon wants give him more content.
I love Spongebob platformer games! I'm on it
