*UPDATED* Madden 21 Spongebob: The Yard, Location, Moves, Bubble Bowl & more

EA shocked fans by announcing a Spongebob Madden 21 crossover, and it's only gotten more surprising since.

While we originally expected a Bubble Bowl crossover for the upcoming Super Bowl, it looks like there's more than that coming to Madden 21.

Spongebob Joins The Yard

Madden 21 The Yard has got a brand new location and some new moves and content to show off that are inspired by Spongebob and Bikini Bottom.

This lighthearted crossover is sure to bring some laughs, but it's taking development time from many real core issues Madden 21 still has - including very limited upgrades to its Franchise Mode that sparked massive controversy before release.

But while fans have some warranted criticisms, let's take off our critic hats and look ahead to what could soon be a Madden 21 Bubble Bowl.

Is a Madden 21 Bubble Bowl Next?

Sweet Victory as some fans would call, Madden 21 has crossed over with Spongebob, and we fully expect the Bubble Bowl to be at the heart of things.

The Bubble Bowl is one of the most infamous Spongebob Squarepants episodes of all time, featuring a massive halftime concert from Spongebob and his friends.

This crossover could include Spongebob and crew playing at halftime during games in regular and MUT 21 game modes.

While it feels wild to guess at the possibilities of this move, it's because the concept itself is so strange.
