TORONTO, ON – May 26, 2015 – Nintendo of Canada is celebrating the launch of its newest title for Wii U, Splatoon, with the help of Yogurty’s® and Yogen Früz®. Taking inspiration from Splatoon’s ink-spraying, turf claiming action where players cover territory in bright, colourful ink, Yogurty’s® and Yogen Früz® stores will offer special Splatoon flavours and toppings, contests and prizes, and the opportunity to play Splatoon at select stores!

From June 1, 2015 to September 8, participating Yogurty’s® stores will include three Splatoon-inspired flavours: the Squidsicle sorbet, Inkberry froyo®, and swirl the two to create Squid Ink. Yogen Früz® stores will offer to splat your favourite flavours with juice-bursting popping bubbles in mango and strawberry flavours.

Splatoon and froyo® fans will be encouraged to share photos of their Splatoon froyo® creations on Instagram and Twitter for a chance to win Splatoon prizes. Use hashtags #SplatYourFroyo and #Splatoon for Yogurty’s® or #InkYourFruz and #Splatoon for Yogen Früz®.

To kick off the celebration, there will be a special event held on Saturday, May 30 at the Yogurty’s at 527 Bloor St W., Toronto from 2 p.m. – 6 p.m., where the first 100 people to play Splatoon will get a free cup of frozen yogurt and toppings.
