Xenoblade Chronicles X, Splatoon Get Release Windows

November 5, 2014

During today's Nintendo Direct broadcast, company boss Satoru Iwata announced that the family friendly Wii U-exclusive shooter Splatoon will be launching during the second quarter of 2015. Be sure to check out the game's new single-player trailer below.

Additionally, Iwata said that the Big N is expecting to release Xenoblade Chronicles X before the end of next year. I think it's safe to assume that the upcoming Monolith Soft RPG won't be out until holiday 2015. Here's to hoping The Legend of Zelda for Wii U also manages to squeeze its way in there as well.
