Splatoon 2 Shows Special Artwork For Fantasy Splatfest—Are You Team Knights Or Team Wizards?

Splatoon 2’s next Splatfest was recently revealed as a fantasy-themed event that puts knights up against wizards as a showdown of brains versus brawn. The game’s official Twitter account shared special artwork.

今回のお題は「騎士 vs 魔法使い」。
ファンタジーの世界では花形と言える2つの職業の対決だ。
自ら肉体を仲間の盾とし、鍛え上げた剣技で活路を切り拓く「騎士」。
卓越した頭脳を持ち、強大な魔法で敵を一掃する「魔法使い」。

“This time around, the theme is “Knight vs. Wizard. It’s a showdown between the two star classes of the fantasy world. “Knights” are known for using their own bodies to protect allies and using their well-trained swordsmanship to cut their way through enemies. “Wizards” on the other hand are known for their excellent intelligence and the ability to wipe out enemies with powerful magic. If you could be one of them, which would you choose?”
