We’ve learned (from ga-m.com, via Japanese Nintendo) a new anime is coming based on Nintendo’s popular third-person shooter, Splatoon.

The new anime series will be an online-only run and it’s coming straight to YouTube, via CoroCoro. The anime will premiere on their YouTube channel on August 12th.

While CoroCoro originally debuted a manga based on the shooter that focused on four main characters and a somewhat comedic turf war battle, it remains to be seen what the anime will focus on.

We’ll keep you guys posted. Make sure to keep an eye out for our coverage of Splatoon 2 when it launches July 21st on the Nintendo Switch.
