July 21st marks the first anniversary of Splatoon 2, and we’re celebrating with a global Splatfest! Which sea creature is your favorite, Squid or Octopus? This hotly contested Splatfest will occur from 7/20 (Fri) 9:00pm PT – 7/21 (Sat) 9:00pm PT.

To make the event more special, players on Team Squid will play as Inklings, and players on Team Octopus will play as Octolings. Even if you don’t have the Octo Expansion, if you’re reppin’ Team Octopus, you’ll play as Octolings. On the other hand, those fighting for Team Squid will play as Inklings even if their usual character is set to Octoling.

By the way, your appearance will only change during Splatfest battles. In the Square, you’ll appear as your usual rad self.

Which team will be declared the winner in this cephalopod conflict?! Will you take your time and deliberate on which team to pick? Or are you ready to declare Muck Warfare?

(Please note that the global nature of this Splatfest means Judd and Li’l Judd will need some additional time to calculate, so results will be posted 7/22.)

i just fucking adore that splatoon takes place in a post apoc world. they didnt need to do that. we wouldve all accepted a world of squids with a similar culture to ours no questions asked bc thats how fantasy is sometimes. they didnt have to explain anything. but instead they were like “yeah the reason their culture is similar to ours is they found remnants of us after we all died off bc the sea levels rose due to human activity. also sometimes they find human bones in their backyards” like!
