Splatoon 2 A Hit This Weekend
If you have a Nintendo Switch, you would have had the option to download and play a little of Splatoon 2 this weekend, and from the buzz on Twitter today, it appears as if these people were generally happy with the experience.

Styx: Shards of Darkness a True Stealth Experience
