The end of the week means another new weapon for Splatoon 2. The Range Blaster, as its name implies, has a fairly long range for a blaster, but at the cost of a lower rate of fire. It comes with the Suction Bomb sub-weapon and the Ink Storm special. It’ll be available tomorrow around noon in Japan and Australia, early in the morning in Europe and later tonight in North America.

The US release of “Jump Up, Super Star!” is now live on iTunes here. It officially confirms that Kate Davis is behind the main theme. And just like the Japanese version, it’s just over four minutes long.
