Wicked x Cookie Run Kingdom Crossover: Elphaba & Glinda Release Date, Skills, and How to Get Them

Cookie Run Kingdom is going to release a brand-new Wicked x Cookie Run Kingdom Crossover update. It is expected to add two new Special Cookies to the game. The characters are inspired by the upcoming fantasy movie Wicked: For Good, starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande.

This update will bring magical and cinematic qualities to your kingdom. Cookie fans worldwide can expect the update to appear on Saturday night in the US, perfectly in line with weekend gaming hours.

Wicked x Cookie Run Kingdom Crossover Release Date

The Wicked x Cookie Run Kingdom crossover release date is scheduled for November 23, 2025. Wicked: For Good, the upcoming fantasy musical movie, centres on Glinda, the Good Witch, and Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West.

With this highly anticipated crossover, fans will be able to experience the upcoming fantasy musical movie in the game by completely delving into it with some crazy, magical abilities. Thus, this collaboration will serve as a promotional tool for the movie, which is going to hit the theatres on November 21, 2025.

Fans caught their first glimpse of the collaboration in a Tweet image featuring green and pink clouds, which stirred some serious speculation among fans until the official reveal further confirmed the partnership, via a YouTube video.

Wicked x Cookie Run Kingdom Crossover: Two New Cookies' Skills

Here are the two new Cookies skills in the upcoming update:

Elphaba Cookie Skills

Elphaba Cookie is a Special Cookie of the Magic Type and has a Rear position, which means she is capable of using ranged magic attacks. Her skill brings her onto a broom and drops explosive dust, dealing damage to the enemy.

At the time of writing this article, there has been no official description of Elphaba revealed in the game, but regardless of her attack style, she gives your team a strong, dark background.

Glinda Cookie Skills

Glinda Cookie will appear with Elphaba as part of the Special Rarity Magic / Rear setup and has a sweet and light supporting character. Her skills feature bubble attacks with explosions that move up the screen, mixing charming detail with moments of helpful damage. Like Elphaba, Glinda is part of the Special rarity and provides a level of charm and weaponised depth utility on teams.

How to Get Elphaba and Glinda in Cookie Run Kingdom?

These cookies will be offered during the limited-time Wicked collaboration banner. Players should prepare themselves to pull for gacha, as these Special Cookies will be event-specific, such as Sonic & Tails previously or BTS. The update will also include collaboration bonuses such as:

• Arcade Arena (Epic-only team battles)
• Buffs and debuffs exclusive to Wicked

• Musical-based costumes for your Cookies
