Global Splatfest Pits Team Squid Against Team Octopus
The next Splatfest for Splatoon 2 has been announced! This time it’s Team Squid versus Team Octopus. You can choose your side beginning on July 6 and the Splatfest itself will kick off on July 20. One of the coolest aspects this time around is that those who pick Team Octopus will get to play as an Octoling, even if they don’t have the Octo Expansion. I wonder if this won’t be a bit lopsided?
The #Splatoon2 first anniversary is coming, and it’s time for a fishy free-for-all global #Splatfest! Which sea creature is your favorite, #TeamSquid, or #TeamOctopus? Pick your preferred cephalopod in-game on 7/6, and prepare for a tentacled Turf War starting 7/20! pic.twitter.com/yrda4Ye21g
