Remixes and covers
Inkoming! (Cloud Demo)
Similar to Splattack! (Jam Session), a lower percussion remix is used in the Tutorial and Shooting Range for Splatoon 2. However, eleven slightly different versions are used in-game rather than having one combined song; therefore, the actual song cannot be heard in-game. The full song does not appear in Squid Beatz 2 but does appear in Splatune 2.
Inkoming! (Splatoon 2 Global Testfire Tutorial)
A very early version of the Cloud Demo, retaining the same basic structure, however the instrumentation is completely different. Unlike the final version, it doesn't switch between different versions, it just loops the single track.
Other versions
Inkoming! (Splatoon 2 Global Testfire)
Quite similar to the final song, this early version used in the Splatoon 2 Global Testfire had different drum patterns, less filtered vocals and additional background chants at certain points, unlike the final product.
Inkoming! (Splatoon 2 reveal trailer)
The then-unnamed song was first heard during the initial reveal trailer of Splatoon 2 at the Nintendo Switch Presentation. Made specifically for the trailer, it remains nearly identical to the Testfire version. However, near the end of the trailer, a series of notes that make up the melody of Splattack! can be heard as a callback to the previous game's theme. This outro is not heard in any other version of Inkoming!. This version was included in Splatune 2, although unlike other trailer exclusive songs, such as Splattack! (E3 2014), it retains the sound effects.
Inkoming! (Live)
Also heard at the Nintendo Switch Presentation was a live performance of Inkoming! Other than the slightly different instrumentation due to the live band, it also contained a synthesizer solo, immediately followed up by a guitar solo. It also contained an extended guitar solo outro.
A second live version of the song was performed as part of a medley of Splatoon 2 battle tracks at Tentalive at Tokaigi 2019. Following the battle introduction theme, this version plays the main loop once before the synthesizer and guitar solo transitions into Blitz It!.
Inkoming! (CD)
This version of the song is mostly the same as the in-game version, but loops differently, with a new bridge consisting of part of instrumental without any vocals. It also has a proper outro, completely different from the Splatoon 2 reveal trailer version. It was originally released as part of the Inkoming! EP from Tower Records before being part of the Splatune 2 soundtrack. It was also used in a promotional video for the Splatoon 2 World Championship 2019.
Trivia
- Inkoming! is considered the theme tune of Splatoon 2, with its prominent appearance in the reveal trailer and tracklisting positions in Squid Beatz 2 and Splatune 2.
- It shares a few similarities with Splattack!, both being the theme tunes of their respective games, both containing an exclamation mark in the title, and both games having a remix of the main theme as the Tutorial and Shooting Range music.
Etymology
Inkoming! is a pun of the term incoming and ink, a prominent gameplay mechanic of the Splatoon series.
