Splatoon 2 players are experiencing a rather nasty glitch right now. When playing League Battle, the game can completely crash. It seems to happen if you look at your previous stats, and if you have more than nine play records/are playing in team and pair subsections.
Nintendo is at least aware of the situation, and is working on a fix. We should be seeing another patch for Splatoon 2 in the near future.

Update: Name for this new stage in English is “Shifty Station”.
Original: Splatoon 2’s first Splatfest is this weekend and it seems like it’ll be something special: a new stage called “Twilight Zone” will be available during it, alongside some of the regular stages. At the moment, it seems like this stage will only be playable while the Splatfest lasts and won’t be added to the regular map rotation afterwards.
