As part of Crocs’ Personalise Your Classics campaign which highlights the joy of personalisation through Jibbitz charms, the #CrocsxZEPETO Personalize Your Classics Design Contest seeks to bring the same experience to users virtually, by inviting users to decorate the Classic Clog with Jibbitz charm sticker designs and taking a virtual photograph at the ZEPETO booth.

While on Roblox, players can enjoy the “Crocs World: Tycoon” on September 15, and dive into the heart of a beach-theme park that revolves around the iconic Crocs footwear, including the Classic Crush clog and Platform clog, and the power of imagination. From the moment players set foot on the sandy shores of their personal island, they will be swept into a world of possibilities crafting a unique pair of Classic Clog, Crush Clog, Mega Crush Sandal and more with custom colours, shapes, and Jibbitz charms.

THE BATTLE OF POLYTOPIA RELEASES NEW AQUARION SPECIAL SKIN IN LATEST UPDATE
Midjiwan, the award-winning independent studio behind The Battle of Polytopia has today released a new Aquarion Special Skin, additional language options and balance updates to the recently reworked Aquarion tribe. Players will dive deep into the Ritiki Marshlands encountering a lost Aquarion outpost with the new skin known as “The Forgotten”.
Long ago, when the Aquarion Empire vanished beneath the waves. One remote outpost in the swampy atolls lost all contact, leading its inhabitants to believe they were the last of their kind. This forgotten tribe evolved in isolation, adapting to the marshy landscapes with squid-like appendages and unique abilities to command the swamp and its creatures.
Using the unique abilities of “The Forgotten”, players can build on water, summon giant squids, create speed enhancing bubbles, ride crocodiles, tame toads, and traverse their marshy terrains with ease.
In addition, the latest update to the game now offers expanded language options: Hindi, Indonesian, Malay, Polish, Thai, Turkish & Vietnamese.
Christian Lövstedt, CEO of The Battle of Polytopia, commented: “I feel that this skin is one of the best we’ve created and has quickly become my personal favourite. Additionally, we have added Bubble Tech to the Aquarion Waterways, making that tribe even greater. With expanded language options and new gameplay mechanics, we’re inviting players to dive into the rich lore and strategy that make the Battle of Polytopia truly special.”
To celebrate the launch of the new update, Midjiwan hosted an exclusive livestream event, offering fans a unique look behind the scenes, live gameplay, and discussions with the development team – the livestream is available to watch now: The Forgotten livestrea m by Midjiwan.
