According to this week’s issue of Japanese publication Weekly Jump, Nintendo have some news to share about their cheerful arena-shooting IP Splatoon, news that will apparently “shock the world”.

That’s all we’re given to go on, so it could be anything. Are Pearl and Marina being replaced by new hosts? say it ain’t so! Is Splatoon 2 getting ported to PC or some other platform? Or is it time to face the music and accept that Splatoon 2 is about to become the next in a long line of franchises about to announce a dang Battle Royale mode?

Whatever it is, we won’t have to wait too long to find out, as Nintendo will bestow the shocking news upon us on June 9. Which is one week before the floodgates open on the headline fest that is E3.
