Official Nickelodeon Germany (Deutschland), Austria (Österreich) and Switzerland (Schweiz) press release (click here for an English version of this article):

Pünktlich zum großen Fußballsommer – Nickelodeon launcht weltweit die brandneue 'Nickelodeon: Fußball-Champions'-App



Berlin, 12. Juni 2018 – Nickelodeon sorgt mit zwei neuen Apps Lern- und Spielspaß: 'Doras weltweites Abenteuer', eine pädagogische Geographie-App, und 'Nickelodeon: Fußball-Champions', die das weltweite Fußballfieber feiert und Kinder dazu einlädt, gemeinsam mit den geliebten Charakteren von Nickelodeon Tore zu schießen und Siege zu feiern. Beide Apps sind in 12 Sprachen verfügbar und können über die iTunes, Google Play und Amazon Stores heruntergeladen werden.

„Diese beiden neuen Spiele erfüllen genau das, was unserem Publikum wichtig ist. Unsere Studien zeigen, dass 89% der Kinder im Alter von sechs bis acht Jahren eine große Neugier auf die Welt haben*. Wir haben ‚Doras weltweites Abenteuer‘ mit genau diesem globalen Interesse und dieser Neugierde entwickelt“, sagt Kate Sils, Vice President, Multiplatform and Brand Engagement, Nickelodeon International. „Ebenso wissen wir, dass die Mehrheit der Eltern mit Kindern im Alter von sechs bis elf Jahren berichtet, dass sie alles gemeinsam mit ihren Kindern machen* und dass Fußball der am häufigsten gesehene Sport der Eltern mit Kindern in dieser Altersgruppe ist**. Deshalb freuen wir uns, unsere beliebten Charaktere mit einem weltweit so beliebten Sport in ‚Fußball-Champions‘ zu verbinden – dem ultimativen Fußballturnier im Nick-Stil."

Ausgehend von der TV-Serie Dora, führt 'Doras weltweites Abenteuer' Vorschulkinder spielerisch in die Geographie ein und lädt sie ein, gemeinsam mit Dora, Boots und Swiper verschiedene Kulturen und mehr kennenzulernen und zu feiern. Zum Start können die Spieler über die App sieben verschiedene Länder erkunden: Australien, Brasilien, China, Italien, Japan, Großbritannien und die USA.


In 'Doras weltweites Abenteuer' können Spieler:

Fotos schießen – Hilf Dora beim Fotografieren von Sehenswürdigkeiten, Tieren und Objekten, während sie verschiedene Länder erkundet.
Erinnerungen sammeln in Doras Fotobuch – Fülle Doras Reisefotobuch mit Bildern, Aufklebern und mehr. Eltern können mit ihren Vorschulkindern spielen, während sie sich über die Orte informieren, die sie besucht haben.
Dora anziehen – Spieler können Hemden, Kleider, Hüte und mehr freischalten, während sie verschiedene Länder erkunden.

'Doras weltweites Abenteuer' steht ab sofort für 4,49 € zum Download bereit.

Den weltweiten Fußballsommer feiern – Im Nick-Stil: Mit 'Nickelodeon: Fußball-Champions'

Auf dem Höhepunkt der Fußballsaison lädt 'Nickelodeon: Fußball-Champions' die Kinder ein, in diesem schnellen, lustigen und verrückten Fußballspiel als einer ihrer Lieblings-Charaktere Tore zu schießen. Jeder Spieler-Charakter wird dabei in einem blockigen, 8-Bit-Pixel-Stil dargestellt.


In 'Nickelodeon: Fußball-Champions' können Spieler:

Gemeinsamer Fußballspaß – Verteidigern ausweichen, in spannenden Matches konkurrieren, Turniere gewinnen und sich im Elfmeterschießen beweisen.
Schlüssel sammeln und mehr Features erhalten – Mit verdienten Schlüsseln werden neue Charaktere und Nickelodeon-Welten freigeschaltet. Beispielsweise SpongeBobs Bikini Bottom und eine brandneue Erlebniswelt rund um Manhattan aus der kommenden neuen Serie Aufstieg der Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

'Nickelodeon: Fußball-Champions' ist kostenlos und kann ab sofort über die iTunes, Google Play und Amazon Stores heruntergeladen werden.

Beide Apps folgen den laufenden internationalen App-Erfolgen für Nickelodeon, darunter 'Nella die Ritterprinzessin: Königliche Abenteuer', das weltweit fast 2 Millionen Downloads gesammelt hat, und die internationale Einführung von Nickelodeons globaler 'Sky Whale' App, die mehr als 10 Millionen Downloads außerhalb der USA gesammelt hat. Doras weltweites Abenteuer und 'Nickelodeon: Fußball-Champions' ergänzen Nickelodeons Portfolio von über 50 internationalen Apps mit mehr als 100 Millionen Downloads.

Liam Payne, Flo Rida Talk Rockin' Out Nickelodeon SlimeFest's U.S. Debut

In the ever-crowded field of music festivals, Nickelodeon planted a gooey, lime-green stake this past weekend in Chicago, where it staged its inaugural U.S. SlimeFest with artists Liam Payne, Flo Rida, Zedd and network ambassador JoJo Siwa taking the stage.

For parents, the $50 general admission ticket bought not only a day of music—hours were 11am-5pm in a nod to schedules and attention spans of the crowd—but a hands-on opportunity for their families to connect. It's a trend brands across demographics are embracing as they look to elevate their alliance with fans. Comic Con activations continue to evolve in size and stature, and Turner's Adult Swim network this summer will stage its first branded music fest in L.A., to name a few.

"Everybody wants experiences, and a lot of it is around this idea of making memories. You want to have it be Instagrammable as well of course, but want to create memories to speak to how you shared your time," says Sharon Cohen, Executive Vice President (EVP) of Nickelodeon Experience, a new unit at the company that focuses on real-life extensions. "People are together and in the moment. It's an area where we feel we really can grow the brand."

To that end, aside from taking in the music on the main stage SlimeFest-goers could chat with talent from some of the network's popular shows, including Henry Danger, Game Shakers, School of Rock and Knight Squad, snag a photo opp with costumed characters including SpongeBob and the Fairly OddParents, or stand under a tipping slime bucket. It's all part of the immersive nature of the fest, which has seen success in international markets including the U.K., Spain, South Africa and Australia since it debuted in Australia in 2012.

"We have this amazing opportunity to provide a platform for people to spend time together, and we know music is a passion point kids and families can get behind, and that kids and parents are listening to the same kind of music," Cohen says.

As he gears up to release his debut solo album in September, Payne understands the importance wooing new fans, some of whom may not even have been born when "What Makes You Beautiful" was released.

"I was in my car today coming in and there were all these little girls in tutus, and I don't even know if these people know who I am, but I got my driver to go out and say, 'Do you like Liam Payne and if you do, do you want a picture?' And we just jumped out into this crowd, and we got away with it pretty well. I do like to stop as much as I can, and see if I can put some smiles on faces."

Payne, who watches Nickelodeon with his son Bear, tells Billboard he's right at home in this crowd. "My One Direction days were very much a younger show. Obviously there was always a little bit of over the top humor that people may not have understood until they were a little older, but our show was a young show so I'm more than used to playing to kids," he says.

Flo Rida also embraced the family vibe, ending his Saturday set surrounded on stage by a gaggle of kids and holding a baby in his arms. "From babies to grandmothers and grandpas out there, they have one thing in common—they come out here to party with smiles and joy, and I love receiving that energy as well as giving it," he tells Billboard. "The kids have been very supportive of my career, and any time I can come do something of this magnitude I'm always willing and open."

Cohen says Nick selected artists with broad appeal. "JoJo was an obvious natural choice for us, and in terms of the other artists it was a combination of looking to see who had popular music the kids would appreciate, and we wanted them to similarly appeal to parents and adults," she says.

"Fortunately I don't have to change up my show" from what he does for a crowd of adults, Flo Rida says. "My music is very positive. Anything negative could be going on in our lives and that's what it is all about—to go out there and make some smiles. A lot of people are going to go home and spread that love."
