German Splatoon Facebook page briefly lists Splatoon 2: Octo Expansion for July 13
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Splatoon 2: Octo Expansion launches sometime this summer. When will it happen exactly? Currently Nintendo has yet to say. However, the German Facebook page for Splatoon may have let the cat out of the bag early.
For a brief while, an image appeared on the Facebook page showing a release date of July 13. Nintendo took down the image shortly after fans took notice.
The question is, was this a mistake or an accidental announcement? We do know that the new Pearl and Marina amiibo are due for July 13, so having the Octo Expansion ready on the same day might make sense. Note that nothing is officially confirmed at this time.
