Hold onto your ink tanks, folks, because Nintendo is conjuring up a delightfully eerie surprise for Splatoon 3 fans this spooky season! The 'Splatoween' event is creeping its way into the ink-filled world from October 27th to 29th, and it's all about celebrating Halloween in style.
But wait, there's more! The star attraction of this ghostly gala is, of course, the Splatfest. Brace yourselves, as this year's chilling competition will have you pondering the question, "Which would be the best friend?" Teams Zombie, Skeleton, and Ghost will duke it out for spooky supremacy, and voting opens its creaky doors on October 20th. Start thinking about your allegiances, dear squids!
We can also report that the theme for Splatoween is "Which would be the best friend?" But with the possible answers being a zombie, a skeleton, or a ghost, we think the answer is clear. Only one of them is real! Choose wisely—voting opens 10/20 at 1 AM PT. pic.twitter.com/wiz7XgQQyA
