Splatoon is esports now! Nintendo World Championships will feature Nintendo’s shooter

The Nintendo World Championships is happening this Sunday, and the company is finally sharing some of the details.

This weekend is the first time in more than two decades that Nintendo will hold one of its championship events, and the company wants to keep a lot of what is going to happen a secret. But it did reveal that players will participate in eight different games, including Splatoon. Nintendo points out that this is the first official tournament for its newly released paint-splatting shooter. But that’s the only game the publisher would confirm of the eight.
