The Splatfest Returns On May 23rd With Another ‘Splatoon’ Global Testfire!

Did you miss out on last week’s Splatoon Global Testfire, the demo/online stress test that was only available at specific dates and times? Well, if you did, or if you managed to jump online and want another fix, you’re in luck! The Global Testfire is on its way back next weekend!

On May 23rd from 3-4PM Pacific, would-be Inklings will be able to test out Nintendo’s latest IP, taking on the arena shooter genre. Featuring the same weapons and stages as the first time around, including the Paint Roller, Charge Rifle and the standard Splatershots, on top of a variety of special weapons, veterans shouldn’t expect anything new. Even still, most who have played it were hooked, so the more we get to play before its May 29th release date, the better I say.

Head to the Wii U eShop and pre-install the Global Testfire demo ahead of the announced time, then jump on and have at it! What do you think of Splatoon so far? Head on over to the comments and let us know!
