Ink-splatting action is back and fresher than ever The squid kids called Inklings are back to splat more ink and claim more turf in this colorful and chaotic 4-on-4 action shooter. For the first time, take Turf War battles on-the-go with the Nintendo Switch system, and use any of the console’s portable play styles for intense local multiplayer* action. Even team up for new 4-player co-op fun in Salmon Run! Expect a fresh wave of fashion, not to mention new weapons and gear. Dual wield the new Splat Dualies or stick to mainstays like chargers and rollers, which have been remixed with new strategic possibilities. As always, Turf War is the favored sport among Inklings, but they also dig ranked battles, taking down Octarians in a robust single-player campaign, and battling enemy Salmonids in one dangerous part-time job! No matter which way you play, splat at home or on-the-go with Nintendo Switch. Staying fresh never felt so good. *Additional games and systems required for multiplayer mode.

Things are about to get physical. The first Bayonetta game—previously available in North America as a digital version only— is releasing as physical version for the first time on a Nintendo system in North America! Bayonetta is a butt-kicking, havoc-wreaking witch, and she’ll shoot, slam, and slice angels as she uncovers the truth about her own past. Her weapons and moves are all stylishly over-the-top, but she can also dodge attacks to slow down time and inflict Torture Attacks on her enemies. Who is Bayonetta? Bayonetta is a fashionable and foxy Umbra Witch who, after being asleep at the bottom of a lake for 500 years, awakes with no memory of who she really is. As Bayonetta, punish the unrelenting armies of angels that come after you with deadly devices, evade and mesmerize them with Witch Time, and use Wicked Weaves to summon Infernal Demons to send them back to their maker! You can even dress up in four Nintendo-themed costumes—Princess Peach, Princess Daisy, Link, and Samus Aran.
