On May 28, Splatoon was released in Japan one year ago. Players fell in love, got damn good, and the game became a hit. Today is May 28, and on Twitter, folks online in Japan are celebrating.
(Nintendo is also celebrating by, as Famitsu reports, announcing a Splatoon Wii U bundle that comes with a download for the game and Squid Sister Amiibo figures.)
Below, is a sampling of some of the fan art that marks the game’s first anniversary.
Tomorrow is May 29. That’s the day Splatoon was released in North America and Europe. So, feel free to mark that anniversary anyway you see fit.
