Additionally, series director Hisashi Nogami announced a new mode that’ll be present in Splatoon 2: Private Battle Spectator View. As its name implies, it’ll allow one or two non-players to partake in a private match by manning the cameras. Furthermore, Splatoon 2 will also add LAN Play, which will allow up to ten Switch systems to play together. Oh, and Splatoon 2 will feature amiibo compatibility.

Plus, Nogami recently partook in an informative interview with Famitsu, which Nintendo Everything translated.
