Bandai Namco has released a new Japanese commercial for One Piece: Unlimited World Red Deluxe Edition, which will be released on Switch in August in Japan and in September in the rest of the world. Take a look:

The Splatoon Twitter account has revealed some new gear abilities that will be in Splatoon 2. First up is Special Performance Up – as the name implies, this improves the performance of your special weapon. The exact improvements depend on the weapon – for example, the Tenta Missiles’ cursor gets a wider range, allowing you to hit more targets with it.

Next up is Sub Performance Up. As you might be able to guess, this improves your sub weapons, and again, the improvements depend on the weapon. For example, Splat Bombs can be thrown farther and the Ink Mine gets a larger blast radius.

Some abilities from the first game have also seen some changes. Ink Resistance Up can now be found on headgear, in addition to footwear. Quick Respawn has also been changed –  if you get splatted continuously without splatting an opponent in return, your respawn time gets even shorter.
