Splatoon – points and rank not affected in Private Battle, can password protect lobbies
The Japanese Splatoon Twitter account has continued sharing tidbits about the game’s imminent update. This time around, we have more information about how Private Battle work.
When playing in Private Battle, your points total and rank will not be affected. Additionally, it’s possible to set a password so that you have more control over who enters the lobby.
Below is a translation of the latest tweets:
Another addition to the impending large update are “Private Matches”, a mode where you can enjoy free play online with your friends.
The number of players can be between 2 and 8, with the rules, stage, and team organisation being set as you like.
Be aware that you won’t receive any points for playing in a Private Match, victories and defeats won’t affect your skill level or rank.
You can also set a password, so you can be a little more careful about which friends can and can’t join.
