The Splatoon Twitter account has confirmed that another fan favorite weapon from the first game will return in Splatoon 2 – the Dynamo Roller. However, it now has the Ink Mine sub-weapon and the Sting Ray special.

The Ink Mine has seen a couple of modifications – you can now place two of them at the same time, and if an opponent is hit (but not splatted) by one, they are tagged as if they were hit by a Point Sensor.

Another returning weapon is the Splash-o-matic. Its sub and special weapons have also changed – it has the recently revealed poison mist sub-weapon and the Inkjet special.

The new 1.4 content is now live in Fire Emblem Heroes. Most importantly, the new Tempest Trials event is now available. For the next two weeks, you can attempt to clear this challenge as often as you can manage to earn rewards such as 4-star and 5-star versions of Masked Marth and two new seals. New quests are also available that require you to clear the Tempest Trials at various difficulty settings.

To help you with the Tempest Trials, a new summoning is also available until June 22nd. It features the bonus units that increase your score by 40% if you use them in the trials: Lucina, Robin (male), Tharja and Nowi.

Finally, Xenologue 2 is now available as well. It can be found under Main Story -> Paralogues, alongside the rest of the periodically released side stories.

Just like the poison mist yesterday, the Splatoon Twitter account has introduced another new sub weapon in Splatoon 2 today. The “robot bomb” is a sort of walking homing missile. You throw it, and once it lands, it’ll detect the nearest enemy in a certain radius and starts walking towards them until it explodes.

One of the weapon kits that’ll have the robot bomb sub is the “Foxy”, a roller-type weapon that seems to be quite similar in appearance to the Octobrush from the first game. It will also have the Inkjet special.

Check out the robot bomb in action, as well as look at some screenshots of it and the Foxy:

As could be seen in the latest Nintendo Direct, ARMS doesn’t take itself and its lore all that seriously. Today, the official ARMS Twitter account posted the concept art you see above, which supposedly depicts the history of the mysterious extendable Arms. Apparently, the oldest known records of extendable Arms date back to about 1,500 years ago, although some experts argue that they have been around for about 4,000 years. They also weren’t limited to humans – even animals and plants were said to possess that ability.
