The Hero Suit is the outfit worn by the protagonist in Octo Valley, the story mode of Splatoon. It is worn at all times in Octo Valley, replacing any multiplayer gear, and can be upgraded to increase Ink Tank capacity. A new version of the Hero Suit is worn by Agent 4 in Splatoon 2's story mode, Octo Canyon.
Appearance
The Hero Suit is comprised of three parts: the Hero Headset, the Hero Jacket, and the Hero Runners.
The Headset has a pair of earpieces with large pointed shapes jutting out to the sides connected by two thin bars that curve around the back of the head. The shapes on the earpieces are flat triangles, despite appearing conical from the front. The headset is mostly black with small sections of lime green on the earpieces, which also have glowing blue lights.
The Jacket is form-fitting and black with a large collar and a bright yellow safety vest worn on top; "crab bubbles" lining the inside of the jacket keep it light yet capable of retaining heat. At the wearer's left hip hangs two small accessories, one gray and squid-shaped with a light blue outline that seems to glow, and the other red, oval-shaped, and reflective. The art book claims that these are accessories "designed to attract the opposite sex".
The Runners are a pair of black sneakers with lime green accents. They have a black strap halfway down and blue lights at the top that create small trails behind the wearer as they move.
Also included with the Hero Suit is a unique Ink Tank. Instead of the usual caps with varying shades of green, it has smooth, dark gray caps with a lighter gray check pattern. The lines on the Ink Tank change color depending on its upgrades:
- No upgrades: Blue lines
- One upgrade: Purple lines
- Two upgrades: Yellow lines
- Three upgrades: Green lines
In Splatoon 2, the Hero Suit is now changed and made of three parts: the Hero Headphones, the Hero Hoodie, and the Hero Snowboots. Regardless of what the player wears, they will always wear the basic shorts from the first game and if they pick up Armor, they'll wear the shorts with tights under them with knee pads or what seems to be the boy's option of shorts and tights without the shorts if they are a boy or a girl respectively.
The Headphones are a small set of headphones that are shaped like that resemble a conical shape of an Inkling's ears. They are connected in the back by a band that pulses green lights. The lights at the end change depending on what color ink the player is: Red, blue, or green. The headphones will flash red if Agent 4 is in enemy ink or damaged.
The Hoodie is a yellow-green zipper hoodie with the shoulders and upper arm areas having a reflective material. The hood covers the neck and has two drawstring locks.
The Snowboots are a pair of black puffy boots that are strapped down to a pair of black and orange tracks or anchorings.
A difference between the first game is that the Hero Suit in Splatoon 2 functions similar to Armor. If Agent 4 gets hit enough times that would splat them, they will instead lose the Hero Suit, only wearing the headphones, a tank top or a sports bra (depending on what gender they chose), shorts, and what seems to only be the frame of the Snowboots. Their movement will be severely slow regardless if walking or swimming in ink and won't be able to hide in ink as they will briefly resurface from time to time, they will regain the Hero Suit after enough time has passed, the time can be shortened by recovering in ink, grabbing a mini Zapfish, or picking up Armor.
Trivia
- According to the developers, the suit is designed to look like a firefly squid.
- Replica pieces of the Hero Suit can be obtained for multiplayer. These include the Hero Headset Replica, the Hero Jacket Replica, and the Hero Runner Replicas. The Hero Jacket Replica does not include the Hero Suit's Ink Tank, instead using the standard multiplayer one.
