Splatoon 2: new special weapon detailed, charges faster with “Booyah!”s
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Splatoon 2 is getting its final pieces of new content in the next couple of weeks. One of them is a new special weapon, which was also shown off briefly in the trailer in the latest Nintendo Direct. Today, the official Splatoon Twitter account went into a bit more detail about it.
After activating the weapon, you charge it up first, then throw it to cause an explosion at the point where it lands. The special thing about it is that it charges faster when you send the “Booyah!” voice command to your teammates and when you receive a “Booyah!” back from them. In addition to charging up the weapon more quickly, your teammates’ special gauges also fill up a little bit.
The Japanese name of the weapon is “Naisudama” – “Nice!” being the Japanese equivalent of “Booyah!” and “dama” meaning “ball”. No official English name has been announced yet.
