Tutorial

The in-game tutorial helps new players learn the basic controls and techniques of Splatoon for online battles and Octo Valley missions. Upon starting up the game for the first time, players are able to access the tutorial after customizing their Inkling's gender, skin tone, and eye color.

Introduction
"Hey, you. Yeah, you! Wanna be the freshest squid on the block? We'll teach you some funky-fresh moves on the way to !"

- Tutorial

Upon beginning the tutorial, players will encounter two sets of instructions. The first includes an image of four Inklings and states, "Hey, you. Yeah, you! Wanna be the freshest squid on the block?" This window can be bypassed by pressing.

The second set of instructions displays an image of various Inklings performing tasks such as swimming through grates and Super Jumping and reads, "We'll teach you some funky-fresh moves on the way to !" Like the first message, this window can be bypassed by pressing.

Audio

 * [[Media:Tutorial.ogg|Tutorial music]] by Squid Squad, a less intense version of [[Media:Multiplayer Splattack.ogg|Splattack!]]
 * In fact, this is the only area in the entire game that plays this song in particular. An even less intense looped version can be heard in the Shooting Range.
