Splatoon 2

Nintendo announced a few days ago that the next Splatoon 2 update is scheduled for this coming week. Version 1.4.0 will be issued on Tuesday (North America) / Wednesday (Europe).

Nintendo ended up sharing the patch notes, but only in Japanese. However, thanks to Reddit’s talkion, we have a pretty good idea as to what will be changed. You’ll find a rough translation below. We’ll share the official patch notes from Nintendo when they’re ready – likely next week.

It’s been a busy day for Splatoon 2. After adding the Snapper Canal stage, Bamboozler 14 Mk I was just made available a short while ago as a new weapon. Get a look at some footage below.

Nintendo has announced the proper details about the third Japanese Splatfest for Splatoon 2. Players are being asked what they have more self-confidence in: power or stamina / endurance.

If this Splatfest sounds familiar, that’s because it is. Some players had accidentally encountered the theme a few days ago, but Nintendo said that the details were correct. It seems that the theme was spot on, but the timing wasn’t. The Splatfest will begin on October 14 rather than October 8.
