Production

Development began in 2011 under the title "Project PlumberMouse". It was supposed to be a Mario/Sonic crossover, but was cancelled and replaced with characters from Battle for Dream Island, Invader ZiM, Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi, and The Amazing World of Gumball. In 2012 and 2014, Full Moon Studios almost filed for bankruptcy, but the game wasn't affected due to this. 2014 was also the year when characters from Inanimate Insanity, WALL-E, Godzilla: The Series, Teen Titans GO!, and Pokemon were added. In 2016, EA and CDX Interactive purchased the rights of the game, while Lone Planet Productions and Full Moon Studios became both the developers and publishers of the game. 2017 was also the same year characters from The Awkward Adventures of Israel, Spider-Man, Battle for BFDI, War Of The Worlds, Object World, and Roblox were added, completing the full game.

Marketing

The first trailer debuted on October 31, 2017 on the official EA website.

Removal of Sonic, EVE, and Zilla

The first trailer featured Sonic, EVE, and ZIlla, but were never seen in the game. This is because EA and Full Moon Studios lost the rights to include these characters due to a feud between Electronic Arts, Sega, Sony Pictures Entertainment, and The Walt Disney Company.
