The MCM London Comic Con will offer attendees more than cosplay, comic tables and celebrities this weekend, with Nintendo announcing that Wii U exclusive Splatoon will be playable at the event.
The multiplayer shooter, due to be released globally next week, will sit alongside other Wii U greats Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros. and Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate for plenty of hands-on time with fans.
Other incentives for fans include exclusive items for sale at Nintendo’s on-site store, amiibo competitions in Super Smash Bros. and the opportunity for plenty of StreetPass action – so 3DS owners should ensure they bring their handheld along.
The MCM London Comic Con begins this Friday, May 22, and Splatoon launches globally one week later on the Wii U. Are you in London this weekend? Let us know if you’ll be attending Comic Con and whether you plan to try Splatoon while you’re there.
