At the end of last month, Nintendo unveiled a new Splatoon 2 stage for its Japanese audience. It roughly translated to “Barnacles Sports Club”, but an official English name has been introduced for the west: Musselforge Fitness.
That news comes straight from the Splatoon Tumblr. Aside from the stage, Nintendo also provides an overview about the changes made to the Slosher.
Here’s the full rundown:
We’ve gotten a first look inside one of the new stages–Musselforge Fitness. This state of the art work out facility contains a bouldering gym, a regulation-sized pool, and all the treadmills you could ever want. Judging from our research, today’s Inklings are foregoing the calisthenics and aerobics for more back-to-basics, iron-puming workouts.
In the Slosher category, the crowd-favorite Slosher is also making a return in Splatoon 2. The keen-eyed observer may notice that slight cosmetic adjustments have been made to the Slosher’s handle and suspension arm. These changes are in line with the cosmetic changes that other legacy weapons have recieved. It may seem a trivial change to some, but we at the Squid Research Lab feel that even the smallest changes must be documented in order to keep up with the ever-changing trends of the Inkling world.
