Last month, Nintendo revealed three new amiibo from Splatoon 2 – the Octolings. Today, a concrete release date for them has been revealed for Japan: November 9. No Western release date yet, but amiibo usually launch on the same day worldwide, so you can likely expect them on store shelves around the world on that day.

Nintendo will be publishing another small update for Splatoon 2 update. Look forward to version 3.2.1 next week.

At least for now, the update appears to address one issue in particular. Bomb Launcher bombs not having an effect on Bubble Blower bubbles will be addressed.

Splatoon 2 version 3.2.1 goes live on July 27 in Japan, so likely during the evening of July 26 in North America. We’ll report back when it’s live with full patch notes.
