Camp Triggerfish map coming to Splatoon tomorrow
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 12 Comments
Nintendo will soon be adding another multiplayer map to Splatoon.
Starting tomorrow, players will be able to battle in Camp Triggerfish. This will be made available at 10 PM ET / 7 PM PT / 3 AM in the UK / 4 AM in Europe.
Here’s the official announcement from the Splatoon Tumblr page:
Pack your knapsack because we’re going to camp. Camp Triggerfish, that is!
When the Inklings aren’t busy making s’mores or boondoggle key chains, they enjoy the majestic scenery afforded by camping the best way they know how – Turf War! Battles here play out across a series of bridges, which you’ll have to cross to reach your opponents’ turf.
Each team base at Camp Triggerfish is outfitted with a set of floodgates. When the gates are down, it’s easier for the other team to come and go as they please. In Turf War, the gates lower with one minute left on the clock, leading the way for late-game assaults. In Ranked Battle, they stay down so players can come and go as they please. Watch out in Tower Control! The tower’s path is almost always over water and you’ll need to show off your best squid skills to avoid getting dunked.
Starting tomorrow at 7 PM PT, Camp Triggerfish will be added to the stage rotation. Maybe after we’re done battling we can gather round the fire and sing some jaunty campfire tunes!
View some screenshots of Splatoon’s Camp Triggerfish map below.

Electronic Sports League, known for its huge eSports presence, is setting up two online Community Tournaments for Smash Bros. Wii U in Europe. The top four from each one will participate in a final that will be held in late August.
Here’s the complete schedule:
Super Smash Bros. Community Cup #1 Europe – 26th July 15:00 CEST
Super Smash Bros. Community Cup #2 Europe – 16th August 15:00 CEST
Super Smash Bros. Community Cup Final Europe – 22th August 15:00 CEST
And below are the official rules:
- Single Elimination
- Set length: Best of 3 / Finals: Best of 5
- Game length: 2 Stocks 6 Minutes (Timeout = the player with most Stock and Least % wins)
- Handicap, Damage Ratio and Damage Display remain the same!
- Items: off
- Equipment: off
- Custom Moves: off
- Amiibos: Illegal
- DLC Chars: Legal
- Mii Chars: Banned
- Suicide Clause: Bowser-Suicide counts as lose.
- Pause/Homebutton clause: player who uses one of those buttons without mutual agreement will lose 1 Stock
This is more of a trial run, so it makes sense that the prizes are a bit on the light side. The top three participants in the final will receive eShop funds of €50, €25 and €15 respectively. They’ll also be given a choice of Splatoon, Yoshi’s Woolly World or Super Mario Maker.
