Clash Royale's Unexpected Collaboration: Michael Bolton and the Barboltian!
Supercell, the creators of Clash Royale, have once again surprised us with an unusual celebrity partnership. This time, it's none other than singer Michael Bolton teaming up with the game's iconic Barbarian character. Following in the footsteps of Erling Haaland in Clash of Clans and Gordon Ramsay in Hay Day, this collaboration is arguably their most unexpected yet.
The highlight is a newly released music video featuring a reimagined version of Bolton's classic hit, "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You," performed by the Barbarian, now sporting a mullet and handlebar mustache – rebranded as the "Barboltian." This isn't just a silly video; the song will also be available on major music streaming platforms.
While the video is aimed at re-engaging lapsed Clash Royale players, there's currently no announced rewards campaign to incentivize their return. Supercell is seemingly banking on the Barboltian's vocal talents alone to draw players back.
A Humorous, Yet Questionable, Strategy
The collaboration is undeniably humorous and unexpected. Given Supercell's history of high-profile partnerships, perhaps this shouldn't be entirely shocking. However, the effectiveness of a parody music video in attracting lapsed players remains to be seen. Hopefully, additional in-game promotions or a return campaign will be implemented to further entice players back.
