Urchin Underpass

Urchin Underpass is an online multiplayer stage in Splatoon.

Layout
Urchin Underpass features two identical sides that are shaped like large Ls.

Notable Locations

 * Center Plaza – The Center Plaza serves as the chokepoint of the map, and is where most battles occur.
 * Secret Alleys – The two Secret Alleys are located near the Center Plaza. They are long, narrow, hidden strips of turf that are difficult to access and lined with Glass panels.

Splat Zones
The Splat Zone for Urchin Underpass is located in the Center Plaza, specifically encompassing the rectangular lower area covered in grass.

In splat zones, two boxes have been added to the main entryways of the Center Plaza on either side.

Tips

 * There is a large amount of turf behind the spawn point on either side. Be sure to claim it.
 * While the most obvious entrance to the secret alleys is through the gated ramp, it's also possible to paint the walls at the exits in the center plaza and swim up to the platform there. This is useful for sneakily getting into enemy territory or even taking out bothersome snipers in these locations.
 * Above the main exit of each team's spawn, there are low rafters. This is a good place to put a sprinkler, as it covers a sizable area from above and many players will not think to look up there.

Trivia

 * This map was first revealed at E3 2014 and was the only playable map at the time.
 * A night variant of this map exists in Hero Mode in the mission Unwelcome Flying Object.
