Splatoon 2 Starter Edition Inking Its Way Into Retailers Next Month
Next month, Nintendo's third-person ink shooter, Splatoon 2, will be getting extra goodies in the Starter Edition.
This package comes with the full game, a 100-page strategy guide, and two sheets of Splatoon stickers. It's priced at $59.99, same as the standalone game, and will launch March 16.
In other Splatoon news, Nintendo on Sunday randomly revealed Pearl and Marina amiibo that will launch in a two-pack for $24.99 later this year. Goby Arena, a new map modeled after a basketball court, and a weapon set called Dark Tetra Dualies, which allows players to simultaneously dodge roll four times in a row and shoot, are "coming soon" through a free update. The next Splatfest, which kicks off February 16, pits the power of greed against the power of love.

We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.

We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk.
