Hammerhead Bridge

Callie: This bridge has been under construction, like, forever. Marie: Are all the workers slacking off or what?

Hammerhead Bridge is a multiplayer stage in Splatoon. It was revealed during a Japanese promotional trailer depicting new updates on July 24, 2015. It was released on September 18th, 2015 at 02:00 UTC.

Layout

Hammerhead Bridge is a bridge that is currently under construction, over the ocean. It is split into two layers, a bottom layer and a top layer. The top layer is made up of a Grated Bridge that runs through the map and many platforms. The bottom layer is right below the bridge, providing cover from players across the map, and boasting many ways to reach the top layer.

Hazards

Chasms- Many chasms surround Hammerhead Bridge, next to narrow walk ways. Falling into one will force the player to respawn.

Notable Locations

• Grated Bridge- This bridge runs through the map connecting various platforms, making up the "top layer" of the map and overlooking many parts of it. It can be used as a vantage point for chargers in many locations. Players on the bridge, though, are big targets and are vulnerable from surprise attacks from below.
• Lower Platform- This platform is right below the Grated Bridge and makes up most of the map. From here, players can work on covering ground and attacking the players above them.

Ranked Battle

Splat Zones

The Splat Zone on Hammerhead bridge is located at the center of the map on the lowest floor beneath the Grated Bridge. The zone is very long and narrow, spanning almost the entire width of the stage. Because the Grated Bridge crosses over the zone, players on the it will be huge targets from players below, as there isn't too much cover from below. Two small walls have been taken out near the center and three barriers have been added.

Tower Control

Rainmaker

The Rainmaker starts in the very center of the map, on top of the Grated Bridge. The goals are located in front of each team's base, with an added barrier closer to their respawn point. Many stacks of inkable crates have been added to provide more ways to reach, or attack the opposing team and get inside their base.

Tips

• Sloshers and Rollers can easily attack players above on the Grated Bridge, or below on the Lower Platform.
