Clash Royale has teamed up with Michael Bolton—yes, that Michael Bolton—resulting in the Barbarian's surprising transformation into the "Boltarian." Following collaborations with Erling Haaland in Clash of Clans and Gordon Ramsay in Hay Day, Supercell’s latest celebrity partnership is undeniably their most unexpected yet. This collaboration features a music video showcasing a new rendition of Bolton's hit song, "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You," specifically targeting lapsed Clash Royale players.
The Barbarian, sporting a fresh mullet and handlebar mustache as the Boltarian, stars in this music video. Beyond the video, the song will be available on major music streaming platforms. While there's currently no announced rewards campaign to entice returning players, Supercell seems to be banking on the Boltarian's vocal charm to reignite interest.
A Surprisingly Harmonious Collaboration
The collaboration, while humorous and unexpected, isn't entirely shocking given Supercell's history of high-profile partnerships. However, the effectiveness of a parody music video in re-engaging lapsed players remains to be seen. Hopefully, further in-game promotions or return campaigns will be implemented to attract a wider audience.
In the meantime, if this collaboration has piqued your interest and you're ready to return to Clash Royale, be sure to consult our updated tier list for the latest card rankings to ensure you're prepared for battle.
