Nintendo’s Doug Bowser offered a statement, reading “ Splatoon 2 and ARMS are games that lend themselves perfectly to tournaments, and E3 is an ideal venue to bring people together to compete. These friendly tournaments will highlight the fun, competitive nature of these games and the Nintendo Switch hardware for people at home and on the show floor.”

The 2017 Splatoon 2 World Inkling Invitational starts Tuesday, June 13 at 2:30 PM PT. Four different teams from around the world will compete, all winners from local events held over the past few months. These teams will compete in a round-robin Turf War tournament that will feed into Ranked Battles for the next round, and the semifinals and finals will be best-of-five and best-of-seven respectively. The winning team will receive an engraved Splatoon 2 trophy.
