Nintendo closed out its E3 2014 Digital Event today with another new Super Smash Bros. character reveal. As many have speculated, Palutena from Kid Icarus will be included in the game.


Nintendo has announced a new IP for Wii U titled “Splatoon”.

Here’s what we know:

– 8 player 4 on 4 online multiplayer action game
– All about controlling territory
– Splatter map with ink, whoever has most territories win
– Characters are squids and have a wider range of actions as a result
– Can swim really fast in your own ink, your feet get stuck in enemy ink
– An overhead view of the entire map is available on the gamepad to see what ink is being splattered where in real time
– Allies can use your ink but enemies are able to disrupt paths – can be used defensively or offensively
– Mechanics are focused on players finding strategies rather than just running and gunning – plenty of options

Splatoon will launch in 2015.
