Splatoon Will Launch Before Summertime

By Alex Osborn

Nintendo's upcoming ink-based shooter sporting a cast of transforming squid finally has a release month. Splatoon will launch this May, exclusively for Wii U.

For those that don't already know, Splatoon is a multiplayer-focused game (though it also features a single-player element) where teams face off it a battle to cover the map with ink. It's cute, charming, and loads of fun. For more on the family-friendly shooter, check out our preview right here.
