And while official news arrives, some important rumors cannot be missed, this time there is talk of the next game from the newest IP of the company that owns Super Mario and company.

Here is the description of the franchise:

The Splatoon saga is a series of third-person shooter video games developed and published by Nintendo. The first game in the series introduces players to a world filled with ink. Players control “Inklings,” creatures that can transform between human and squid form, allowing them to either shoot ink or swim through it to move quickly. The main game focuses on 4-on-4 multiplayer battles, where the goal is to cover the most ground with your team’s ink. It also has a single-player campaign mode.

It has been very well received by both critics and players, being praised for its freshness and originality in the third-person shooter genre. It has developed a loyal fan base and influenced gaming culture with its unique style and gameplay.

For now everything indicates that Splatoon 4 It could be a reality, but it is information that should be taken with a grain of salt. Even so, the leaker has been right with many of his theories, so it is better to be attentive.

Author’s note: It is strange that this game comes out so soon, since with the previous one it took at least five years to be conceived. It is also something they have planned in the future, but I would like it to be a dedicated campaign and for the online to remain at number 3.
