Splat Zones



Splat Zones is a multiplayer mode in Splatoon. It will be released in the Ranked Battles category once a large amount of players has reached Level 10.

History
Splat Zones was announced on March 23, 2015 when video game journalists from around the world were invited to a Nintendo event in Seattle, Washington. It was revealed that this mode will not be available from launch, but will instead be released at a later, unspecified, date.

Description
Splat Zones plays similarly to the King of the Hill mode from other video games. It revolves around a central "zone," which players must attempt to cover in ink. Once a team has covered a majority of the zone in their ink, the zone is "captured" and a countdown begins. The opposing team must try to capture the zone in the same manner. The first team who holds the zone for a total of 100 seconds wins the match.
