With Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 releasing digitally in just a week, GameMill Entertainment has pulled back the curtain to reveal the title’s overhauled campaign mode. In a newly launched trailer for the game, the single-player story is intriguingly called “an epic roguelike campaign.”
The crux of the campaign’s story revolves around Danny Phantom‘s Vlad Plasimus as the villain “wreaks havoc across the Nickelodeon universe.” To progress through the adventure, you’ll have the option to choose different paths at key moments. Successful bouts lead you toward unlocking new characters and power-ups to aid you further along.
The world’s most fearsome fighting team
Outside of the campaign, we also got a glimpse at some other additions to Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2‘s single-player content. A new Pop the Slime Balloons game is shown off which looks like an homage to Super Smash Bros.‘s Break the Targets. There’s also a Whack-a-bot mode that seems similar to Smash Bros.‘s 100-Man Smash.
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 will also feature a boss rush mode, with the trailer teasing numerous villains including SpongeBob SquarePants‘ Flying Dutchman and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles‘ Shredder. Each of the single-player modes mentioned will have a speedrun option as well so that players can compete for the fastest times.
With today’s news, GameMill Entertainment also confirmed what’s in store for Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 DLC. The platform fighter will come equipped with 25 fighters at launch (14 returning, 11 new). But for those who need more, a $24.99 Season Pass will feature a four additional combatants.
The future DLC newcomers include Mr. Krabs, Rocksteady, Zuko, and Iroh, with Mr. Krabs planned to appear first in early 2024. There’s also a Costume Pack that players can purchase for $19.99 that includes a brand-new outfit for each character. Furthermore, GameMill notes that players can purchase “future individual DLC brawlers” with three costumes included for $6.99.
Due to the game’s delay, Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 will debut digitally on November 7 for Steam, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. Meanwhile, physical copies of the game will launch December 1. That said, note that the developers confirmed that the Nintendo Switch physical version is just a code in a box.
