Michael Bolton Joins Clash Royale in Odd Collaboration

Supercell continues to surprise and delight its fanbase with unexpected celebrity collaborations, and the latest one for Clash Royale is no exception. The iconic singer Michael Bolton has joined forces with the game in a unique partnership that transforms the classic Barbarian into the "Boltarian." Yes, you read that right—the Barbarian now sports a mullet and a handlebar mustache, inspired by Bolton himself.

This collaboration isn't just a fleeting gimmick; it comes complete with a special music video tailored for lapsed Clash Royale players. In this video, Michael Bolton performs a new rendition of his hit song "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You," featuring the newly styled Boltarian. The video aims to rekindle the passion of former players and draw them back into the game's vibrant world.

But the surprises don't end there. The revamped song is now available on various music streaming platforms, allowing fans to enjoy Bolton's golden vocals outside the game as well. While there's no immediate news of a rewards campaign to entice returning players, the hope is that the charm of the Boltarian and Bolton's musical prowess will be enough to reignite interest.

**Sing to win 'em over**

While the collaboration might seem quirky, it's part of Supercell's strategy to engage players through high-profile partnerships. After collaborations with Erling Haaland in Clash of Clans and Gordon Ramsay in Hay Day, teaming up with Michael Bolton for Clash Royale adds another layer of entertainment to their roster of games.

Though the parody music video is a fun and creative approach, some may wonder if it's enough to bring back lapsed players. Ideally, Supercell might consider launching a return campaign or other in-game promotions to complement the Boltarian's charm and really capture the attention of those who've stepped away from the game.

If this collaboration has piqued your interest and you're thinking about diving back into Clash Royale, make sure you're well-prepared. Check out our regularly updated tier list to see how all the cards are ranked and strategize your comeback effectively!
