<p><span style="color: #000000;">When<a href="https://bagogames.com/splatoon-new-shooter-wii-u/"> Nintendo revealed Splatoon</a> at this year&#8217;s E3 conference, their focus was on the 4v4 multiplayer mode. In an interview with Game Rant, Splat0on producer Hisashi Nogami and project lead Tsubasa Sakaguchi confirmed that Splatoon will be a full featured retail title with many different modes.</span></p>

<blockquote>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">First of all, our plan is to release this as a full retail packaged software in 2015… the first half of 2015. And because we’re releasing this as a full software title, we of course plan to include a single-player mode but then also a one-on-one multiplayer mode that can be played without connecting to the Internet. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">What we can tell you about the one-on-one, at least, is that one player will be using the GamePad, one player will be using the Pro Controller. And we’re actually thinking of having that one-on-one mode be something kinda completely different from the four-on-four one where it’ll be, you know, kind of a lot more stalking and hiding in the ink. It’ll be much more like a quiet mode in a sense.”</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">“And, you know, we’ve progressed [in development] at least to that point, but in terms of what we’re going to do with the screens – whether we’re going to have one person on the TV and one person on the GamePad – we’re not sure yet.</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Splatoon will launch exclusively for the Wii U in the first half of 2015.</span></p>
