Octolings won’t be playable in Splatoon 2 until Octo Expansion arrives this summer.

A few players who have done this have also gone online as Octolings, which Nintendo apparently wasn’t happy about.
We’re hearing reports that some players who hacked in Octolings have been banned by Nintendo. The company is sending out emails about the restriction that affects all of Splatoon 2’s online multiplayer.

Fortnite isn’t the only new Switch game to have been rated in South Korea. Legendary Fishing, an unannounced project from Ubisoft, also appeared on the classification site.

We’ll hopefully have more information soon.
