Clash Royale's Unexpected Collaboration: Michael Bolton and the Barboltian!
Supercell continues its surprising celebrity partnerships, this time uniting the iconic Clash Royale Barbarian with none other than singer Michael Bolton. This unusual collaboration features a new music video for a reimagined version of Bolton's classic hit, "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You."
The Barbarian, now sporting a mullet and handlebar mustache, transforms into the "Barboltian" for this unique video, specifically targeted at lapsed Clash Royale players. The collaboration extends beyond the music video; the song will also be available on major music streaming platforms.
While the humorous video is a definite attention-grabber, the lack of an accompanying rewards campaign for returning players is notable. Supercell is seemingly banking on the Barboltian's vocal charm to lure players back.
A Novel Approach to Player Retention?
The collaboration, while unexpected and undeniably quirky, raises questions about its effectiveness in attracting lapsed players. While the novelty is undeniable, a more substantial incentive program might be necessary to truly reignite interest among long-time absent players.
