Quotes
| “ | OK, sorry - we're so excited that we're just gonna keep tweeting. How about that Splatfest World Premiere! First, the idea of a 3-way Splatfest is mind-blowing. And the theme? A statistical exploration of the benefits of Rock vs. Paper vs. Scissors? We're swooning. Scientifically.
Oh! We forgot to mention WHEN the Splatfest will be. It'll begin Saturday, August 27th at 9 AM PT. And it goes until 9 PM PT! You'll form squads with other folks who choose the same team - Rock, Paper, or Scissors - and battle it out to see which is best! |

Trivia
- For unknown reasons, Australia and New Zealand are combined with Hong Kong and South Korea when selecting a region upon first starting the demo, even though they are combined with North America in the main game, like in Splatoon 2.
