"In Hikara Square, in addition to familiar brands, a new brand seems to be emerging. This is Empery. While focusing on sports casual, it is a new generation of street fashion brand that combines various cultures such as art and music," Nintendo wrote along with an image showcasing Empery clothing.
More "Splatoon 2" clothing brands are expected to be announced soon. Prior to the Empery reveal, however, Nintendo also detailed another fashion-related addition in the game. "It seems that the trend of gear has changed a bit during the last two years. A sporty classic model also makes it easier to fit more casual attire by changing the material and color. Suede sneakers with elegant taste but pop, seems to fit easily with beautiful Corde," the company tweeted out.
"Splatoon 2" is set for release this summer on the Nintendo Switch. Those who own the console will get the chance to participate in an upcoming Global Testfire.
