Today on GR Live - Splatoon 2

We're here to show you two hours of the inky sequel.

Splatoon 2 has just released on the Nintendo Switch as of last Friday, giving Switch users the chance to get in on the inky goodness that Wii U owners got to experience in 2015, except with new features, weapons, modes, and more.

What better time than now for us to stream it, then, and that's exactly what Sam's here to do from 15:00 BST for two hours on our live page. If you want to know more about the game itself, though, check out our review too.
