Can you help us get it done?
Splatoon (スプラトゥーン Supuratoūn) is an upcoming 2015 third-person shooter developed and published by Nintendo. The game focuses on a war between Inklings, using weaponized ink to cover the most territory. The game is planned to be released for the Wii U. The game was first revealed at E3 2014.
Story
An investigative report from the Squid Research Lab. With the hope of invading the Inklings' world, the Octopus Army Corps built an underground facility known as the Octopus Army Corps Base. After the army steals the Battery Catfish from the Inklings' world, the protagonist, wearing the Hero Suit, is tasked to infiltrate the enemy's world and rescue the Battery Catfish.
Gameplay
Splatoon is a third-person shooter game focused on online multiplayer, in which eight players are put into two teams of four (colors include but not limited to blue, orange, pink, etc.). Players may switch between the two forms of their Inklings - their human form, in which they can use weapons to spread ink and splatter opponents, or their squid form, which can swim through ink at amazing speed, recharge the player's ink tanks, or hide. Players can also find Power Weapons, such as paint rollers, launchers, and splatter bombs, which have increased power. The winner (which is the team that covers the most terrain with the ink of their color) will be decided by a cat referee.

Trivia
- "Splatoon" is a portmanteau of "splat" and "platoon". This fits the game's theme perfectly, as they are platoons that splat paint.
- The Inklings' squid form looks very similar to Super Mario's Bloopers .
- At the beginning of the trailer, the inklings shoot ink at an invisible U from the Wii U logo.
