Splatoon 2 Super Mario Splatfest Will Be Held in January

Back in July 2020, Nintendo announced that there would be three more Splatoon 2 Splatfests heading to the game. (This was even though they were “officially” done.) Now, as part of the Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary Direct, a Splatoon 2 Super Mario Splatfest has been announced. It will take place in January 2021.

While there’s no exact date for the event, we do know what the question will be. Rather than force a Sophie’s Choice sort of question and ask people to pick a certain character as a favorite, it will be about power-ups. Essentially, you decide if you would prefer to be super sized as a result of a Super Mushroom or if you would rather be invincible after grabbing a Super Star. Since it should follow the typical Splatfest protocol, that would mean Pearl would favor Super Mushrooms and Marina would be a fan of Super Stars.

Splatoon 2 is available for the Nintendo Switch. The Splatoon 2 Super Mario Splatfest will be held in January 2021. The most recent in-game event was the chicken and egg Splatfest held back in August 2020.
