Splatoon: new dates for the 1st European / North American SplatFests; keyrings
SplatFest are special 24 hour long events that will take place regularly in Splatoon. During those, players have to answer a question (like “Do you prefer cats or dogs?”), before joining a team depending on their answer. At the end of each SplatFest, the team with the most points win, so if you want to show people why cats are so much better than dogs, you better step up your game during Turf Wars!
The first one for Japan took place back on May 13th, but some players encountered connection problems. It’s for this very reason that Nintendo chose to delay the first North American SplatFest. But it looks like Nintendo has managed to fix the issue, as the new date for the first European and North America SplatFest was announced a few minutes ago!
