Today marks the start of the Splatoon 2 Global Testfire event. Switch owners can grab the app on the eShop. By all reports, game play hasn’t happened yet, but it will at noon Pacific (3 Eastern) today and runs through the 26th.
What’s inside the Splatoon 2 Global event?
During testfire, four weapons will be ready to use including updated versions of the Splat Roller & Splat Charger. During the event, players take on others in team-based shooter action. Players can be from any worldwide location too.
The caveat in this is that the gaming sessions are only 1-hour long each so it’s pretty wise to have the client pre-loaded in order to participate.
Splatoon 2 is set for release this summer. You can learn more on its official site.
