Splatoon 2 update out now (version 2.0.1)
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 1 Comment
Nintendo has issued another update for Splatoon 2. The latest patch, version 2.0.1, is now available for download.
Today’s update tackles one specific problem. After version 2.0.0 debuted, an issue popped up in which the Great Zapfish was not appearing in Inkopolis Square once the necessary conditions had been met. Today’s patch fixes that, so many of you should be able to find Great Zapfish roaming around once again.
Thanks to Cameron for the tip.

Splatoon 2 version 2.0.0 accidentally removes the Great Zapfish, will be fixed
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 6 Comments
Nintendo began distribution the new, major update for Splatoon 2 last night. Version 2.0.0 added a ton of content, including stages, gear, and so much more.
One unintended side effect of the update relates to the Great Zapfish. Strangely, after applying the patch, it is removed entirely. Nintendo did at least say on the Japanese Twitter page for Splatoon 2 that this will be addressed with a future update.
Players can see the Great Zapfish after finishing Splatoon 2’s Hero Mode. You can spot it flying in the Inkopolis Square, though it’s not entirely clear what prompts the appearance.
