Just like the first game, Splatoon 2 features gear. There are three categories: headgear, clothes, and shoes. The Splatoon 2 Twitter account teases new gear keeping in line with the fashion trends taking place in Inkopolis Square.

Every piece of gear has an ability. With abilities, it’s possible for the same kind of gear to be unique. With the two years that have gone by since the first Splatoon, it sounds like some abilities are new or have changed.

Brave Dungeon, a side story from The Legend of Dark Witch, is making its way to North America very soon. In fact, it’s just one day out. The 3DS eShop lists it for March 30.

Here’s a brief overview of Brave Dungeon:

“Syega are powerful crystals that grant humans the ability to use magic. Some crystals are so powerful they have to be contained in specially prepared vessels; these are known as Magic Items. Join intrepid adventurer AI as she explores the dangerous labyrinths of Belfer Island in search of powerful Magic Items. Along the way AI will join forces with strong allies and face even stronger enemies. Can AI conquer the imposing dungeon known as Godshill and find the ultimate Magic Items?”
