Splatoon

Make a splash in Splatoon, the high-energy, ink-slinging phenomenon that turned the shooter genre on its head. In a world of “Inklings”—cool, cephalopod-humanoids—your goal isn’t just to take down opponents, but to claim your turf by coating every possible surface in your team’s vibrant color. This Wii U original features a uniquely tactile movement system where you can dive into your own ink to swim at high speeds, scale vertical walls, and instantly reload your weapon. With a “fresh” street-culture aesthetic, an addictive solo campaign in Octo Valley, and a rotating arsenal of creative gear—from giant paint rollers to ink-shooting buckets—Splatoon is a masterclass in innovative, family-friendly competition that feels as stylish as it is fun.
