<p><strong>Update (Mon 24th Aug, 2020 04:15 BST):</strong> Nintendo’s Chicken vs. Egg contest has officially come to close and it seems the chicken came first! It had a 2-1 victory over Team Egg. Here’s the full breakdown courtesy of the <a class="external" href="https://twitter.com/NintendoVS/status/1297695812919554050">Nintendo Versus Twitter</a>:</p>

<p><strong>Original article (Sat 22nd Aug, 2020 06:55 BST):</strong> Nintendo apparently held its “final” <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/splatoon_2">Splatoon 2</a></strong> Splatfest last July (<a class="external" href="https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/07/pearl_and_team_chaos_win_the_final_splatoon_2_splatfest">Pearl won, by the way</a>) and ended major support for the game. Despite this, it has continued to roll out <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/08/splatoon_2_version_5_3_0_update_patch_notes">minor updates</a> and in recent times has been hosting additional Splatfests.</p>
<p>This weekend, as you might recall, is the all-time classic: Chicken vs. Egg. So pick a side in Inkopolis Square and join the battle.</p>

<p>The original Chicken vs. Egg Splatfest was held in 2018 and Chicken took out the victory with a 2 – 1 win. It was also apparently the <a class="external" href="https://splatoonwiki.org/wiki/List_of_Splatfests_in_Splatoon_2">first time a “solid white” colour</a> was used in the game (no, mayo doesn’t count).</p>
<p>When we find out the results of this latest Chicken vs. Egg battle later this weekend, we’ll update this post. In the meantime, tell us in the comments and poll which side you’re fighting for.</p>
