Splatoon 2
Unsurprisingly, one of the Wii U’s biggest hit titles, Splatoon, will be making its return on the Switch in the form of a sequel. While we don’t know a ton of details on what to expect in this upcoming title, we do know that the characters, arenas, and weapons have all seen a facelift. Inklings are now older, their weapons are far more powerful including some with unique abilities, and of course, new maps will be thrown in there.
While Splatoon may not have been picked up by a ton of players, critics reviewed the title incredibly positively when it released back in 2015. As a family-friendly, online FPS title, it’s a great fit for Nintendo’s upcoming console. Especially when Splatoon 2 features eight-player local and online multiplayer matches. I mean, what better way to spend your commute than by defeating fellow commuters in a chaotic battle of Turf War?
What’s more, with Nintendo investing into a dedicated online service for the Switch, and not too many first-party titles confirmed to be releasing on the system in the opening months, Splatoon 2’s Summer release could be just what it needs for a sales resurgence.
