-the final fest has now been announced in-game; you may pick your side now
-you may now collect your in-game gear from a squid research lab post in the switch's news app
-starting mid-july you can buy real-life t shirts with team chaos or order on them at store.nintendo.com
-20 shifty stations will be available, with stations from previous splatfests appearing in 2 hour rotations during the first 48 hours and a new shifty station, mc.princess diaries, being added during the last 24 hours
