[@BloodRedFox2008]

Might be a long while before then, the Splatoon developers are also the ones making Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and Nintendo generally likes to avoid overworking their staff by not putting them on more than one major title at a time. In fact that might be why the Splatfests have come to an end, so the team can put all focus on Animal Crossing (though I'm sure at least a small team will be left to handle things like patching exploits and dealing with hackers).
