Splatoon 2 has sold more than 4.9 million units worldwide since it launched exclusively for the Nintendo Switch last summer, but if you’ve yet to get your hands on the new hybrid console, Nintendo has a “splat-acular” treat for you. It comes in the form of the Splatoon 2 Starter Edition, a special bundle that includes the full Splatoon 2 game along with a 100-page strategy guide and two sheets of Splatoon stickers. The bundle  is priced at $59.99 — the same price as the standalone game — and is set to hit store shelves on March 16.

In addition to the bundle, Nintendo also announced that Pearl and Marina, two of the most popular new characters in Splatoon 2, are getting their own amiibo figures. The duo, which forms the group “Off the Hook,” will launch in stores exclusively as part of a 2-pack set later this year.



Furthermore, Nintendo revealed on Twitter a new map and weapon set to arrive soon. The Goby Arena, which is themed like a basketball arena, will enter the rotation “soon.” The Dark Tetra Dualies, which will allow your character to execute up to four dodge rolls in a row, is also on its way. Images of both were shared on Twitter via Nintendo Versus.
