NEW
YORK, May 8, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Three is
the magic number, as the most downloaded casual match-three
game1, Candy Crush Saga, teams up
with GRAMMY-nominated trio Jonas
Brothers for the game's upcoming Music Season. Jonas Brothers are heading to the Candy Kingdom
for a special in-game takeover where players can interact with the
"Candified" stars and stream exclusive music in-game, before
listening to it anywhere else.
On May 11, Candy Crush Saga
will have exclusive 24-hour access to key tracks from the highly
anticipated "The Album" release, ahead of any streaming platform.
Players and Jonatics can stream exclusive video content of
Jonas Brothers performing unreleased
tracks "Summer Baby" and "Sail Away", captured during the recent
sold out one-night-only Royal Albert
Hall gig in London, England
until May 18.
Fans will also be given access to a never-before-heard Candy
Crush remix of Jonas Brothers'
hit single "Waffle House". The popular album track has been mixed
with the iconic music and sounds from Candy Crush Saga and
can be heard within the game from May
11.
Kicking off the game's Music Season, from May 8 - 28, players will see Jonas Brothers transformed into "Candified"
characters for the special in-game takeover. During this
period, players will tour the Candy Kingdom with Jonas Brothers in the Music Tour Bus, where they
will take on a series of events and challenges as they collect
guitar candies to win in-game rewards.
To reveal the sweet music collaboration, Jonas Brothers star in a new light-hearted,
tongue-in-cheek short film created in partnership with Candy
Crush Saga, which sees the superstars get real about honing
their craft, dedication, and ambition - not just when it comes to
their approach to music, but also how they approach playing
Candy Crush Saga too. Whether chilling out or
preparing to make magic in the recording studio – the brothers
waste no time striving for sweet victory as they level up their
game.
Jonas Brothers commented:
"We're suckers for a game of Candy Crush Saga, having spent
years playing during downtime on set, and competing against each
other while on the road. We cannot wait to invite fans into our
favorite game to listen to our new music before it can be heard
anywhere else. They'll also see us turned into characters in the
game! For us, that's almost the most exciting part..."
Fernanda Romano, Chief
Marketing Officer at King, makers of the Candy Crush franchise,
says: "The Candy Kingdom is completely starstruck, and we're
thrilled to welcome Kevin, Joe and Nick to the vibrant world of
Candy Crush Saga. As we celebrate King turning 20 this year,
and continue to drive the Candy Crush franchise forward,
we're excited to create a space for curated music experiences and
exclusive content, as well as provide our players worldwide with
new immersive ways to play and engage with the game."
Players can check out the all-new exclusive content in Candy
Crush Saga for a limited time during "Music Season" this May.
