Original Article (Tue 21st Jul, 2020 13:45 BST): Remember when Nintendo told us that Splatoon 2 had held its final Splatfest last July? Yeah, liars.

Today, Nintendo has announced a second bonus Splatfest, set to take place next month. It follows the Team Mayo vs Team Ketchup match from May, bringing back another classic Splatfest topic from days gone by: Chicken vs Egg.

It's all kicking off on 21st August - so you've got a whole month to prepare - and will last for the usual 48 hours.

Interestingly, though, there's even more Splatoon goodness on the horizon. Nintendo has also revealed that two more bonus Splatfests will take place in the game "before the end of March 2021".
