Square Enix and developer FuturLab recently announced the “SpongeBob SquarePants Special Pack” DLC for PowerWash Simulator. The DLC will launch this summer, and adds six locations from the show as new maps to the game. They include Conch Street, The Bikini Bottom Bus, The Krusty Krab; The Patty Wagon; The Invisible Boatmobile and The Mermalair. A teaser trailer was also released. PowerWash Simulator is available now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store.
FuturLab CEO James Marsden commented on the announcement in a press release, saying:
“I’m so excited about this Special Pack!” “Our team has created another faithful IP crossover that is respectful to the source. I think this one in particular really shows how much we care about exceeding expectations to do each IP partnership justice.”
Square Enix Collective director of indie publishing Timea Edvi added:
“We are so excited to welcome SpongeBob SquarePants to the PowerWash Simulator world! This couldn’t have happened without our amazing community of power washing pros and their wonderful responses to the Tomb Raider and Midgar Special Packs. We can’t wait for you to join us under the sea!”

If nautical nostalgia be something you wish, then you’re in luck! The “SpongeBob SquarePants Special Pack” is a love letter to the source material, created in the distinct style of the original cartoon in collaboration with the team at Nickelodeon.
Exclusively for this Special Pack, we’ve given the PowerWash character model a marine makeover. You’ll fit right in with the crowd as a true Bottomite, with a custom-designed power washer that could rival even Sandy Cheeks’ best inventions.
Soak up the sights of Bikini Bottom and get totally absorbed in a mini campaign spanning across six new maps for PowerWash Simulator, featuring: Conch Street, The Bikini Bottom Bus, The Krusty Krab; The Patty Wagon; The Invisible Boatmobile and The Mermalair. Plus, we’ve added ten aquatic achievements to fish for!
The residents of Bikini Bottom are left wondering what in the name of Davy Jones’ locker happened to their tidy tidal town after a myriad of mysteriously mucky mishaps. Can they get to the bottom of it before it devolves into another mud-slinging match between Mr. Krabs and Plankton? You don’t know, you’re just there to clean, but it sure makes for great entertainment…
