In 2016, the Squid Sisters from Splatoon held their first performance at Game Party Japan. With the release of Splatoon 2 earlier this year, something similar will be happening once again.
Nintendo has announced that Game Party Japan 2018 will feature Off the Hook’s Pearl and Marina in their first live performance on February 10. The appearance of other guests have also been teased. Based on the official poster above, we can probably expect the Squid Sisters to return.
Other than that, we don’t have any additional information just yet. We should know more leading up to the event in February.
