Splatoon 2 Splatfest World Premiere was a free Splatoon 2 demo available on the Nintendo eShop and was the successor to the Splatoon 2 Global Testfire. It allowed players to engage in four hours of four-versus-four Turf Wars at scheduled times ahead of the release of the game, in the form of a Splatfest. The Splatfest held in the demo differed between regions: the Japanese version featured the Rock vs. Pop Splatfest, while the North American, Oceanian, and European version featured the Cake vs. Ice Cream Splatfest. The event took place on 15 July 2017 at 08:00 UTC for four hours.
A post-release demo, the Splatoon 2 Special Demo, was released in March 2019.
Details
The Splatfest World Premiere was a free demo that only allowed players to play the Splatoon 2 tutorial, see the news announcement of the Rock vs. Pop or Cake vs. Ice Cream Splatfest and choose a side. All of this could be done in advance of the Splatfest event. Unlike the full version of Splatoon 2, the Splatfest World Premiere had only two stages per two hours. For the first two hours, Starfish Mainstage and Inkblot Art Academy were playable. For the last two hours, Moray Towers and Humpback Pump Track were playable.
The Splatfest allowed players to try four different main weapons:
Due to being available before the full release of Splatoon 2, there is no record of this Splatfest in SplatNet 2.
