In addition to the special edition news, Nintendo also announced details of the next “Splatfest”. The event is scheduled to take place on September 1-2, 2017. Players will literally have to choose sides in the Turf War event. The choice is between which superpower they’d prefer: Flight or Invisibility. For now, those are the only details we know.
