After weeks of rumors on r/AllStarBrawl, it does finally appear that a sequel to Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is in the works and will release later this year.

According to the tweet by the official Nick Brawl account, NASB 2 will have a campaign mode, “all-new gameplay,” new modes, new characters, new content, voiceovers, and crossplay. Looks like Squidward and Jimmy Neutron will make an appearance in this one.

I’m cautiously optimistic about this one. I just hope it doesn’t fall flat on its face like its predecessor did. As for “all-new gameplay,” not much was revealed about it for the time being. Whether characters will actually have four specials instead of three, or whether each character will have a grab/throw that’s different than the other, we don’t know.

See the official website for more details, and see the trailer here. Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 is set to release on Steam in the Fall.
