Splatoon developers play Call of Duty and Battlefield in their spare time

The team developing Splatoon (2015, Wii U) was recently interviewed by Kotaku and some of them admit to playing FPS games like Call of Duty and Battlefield, sometimes on rival platforms.

For example, when I asked Nogami and Sakaguchi about other shooters like Call of Duty and Battlefield, Nogami said, “We definitely play those types of games,” adding “There’s definitely guys on our staff who are super into shooters. We definitely play other games and other company’s hardware. We do that as part of our jobs and we also do that because we’re gamers and love to play games.”
