Winner Modern

Retro vs. Modern was a Splatfest event in Splatoon 2. It was held for North America, Oceania, and Europe. It was announced on 15 September 2018. The results were given on 23 September 2018.

Details

The full name of each choice was "I'm all about the RETRO style!" and "I'm all about the MODERN style!". The team name portion of Splatfest titles was "Retro" and "Modern".

This was the first Splatfest with the major Splatfest changes introduced in version 4.0.0.

Like in the Japanese Tsubuan vs. Koshian Splatfest held in the same weekend, a moon appeared in the sky above Inkopolis Square during this Splatfest as a reference to the Tsukimi moon viewing festival. A small squid-shaped formation was visible on the upper-right of the moon's surface. This moon returned in Trick vs. Treat.

Retro vs. Modern featured the 14th Shifty Station layout, The Bouncey Twins.

«Allé... ¿Cómo?»

Notes: "ALLÉVOY" is a reference to the infamous Spanish localization of Final Fantasy VII, which has this phrase said by Cloud before going to battle at the Battle Square. It is a typo of "allá voy" (literally "I'm going there"). It is also referenced in Final Fantasy XV as a joke, occasionally said by Prompto when he takes pictures.
