More breaking update news! The Splatling is a new main weapon type. After charging up Splatling weapons, they can spray a rapid-fire barrage of ink at blinding speed. While this charge time can be tricky to account for, few can compete with their attack power and shot range.

The intrepid squid researchers at GameXplain were able to capture this amazing footage of the Splatoon updates coming tomorrow. The construction on Urchin Underpass seems to be coming along quite nicely!

Whodda thunk we'd have so much to post the day before the August update hit?! All of you? Oh. Fine then. Regardless, we're happy to report that there will be about 40 new pieces of gear added in the August update.
From what we're hearing, some of these items will be found in the shops at the Booyah Base, while others can only be acquired by meeting certain conditions. You can dress yourself from head to toe in new gear, or mix some of the new items in with old favorites. We can't wait to see everyone's fresh new get-ups. Just look at the swag the Inkling in the middle is bringing to the table. If you traveled back in time to before I made this post and told me that one day a fashion visionary would successfully combine a bucket hat, a vest, and a look that screams "blue steel," I wouldn't have believed you.

HAPPY UPDATE DAY, SQUIDS! Tonight at 7 PM PT, the Heavy Splatling enters the game! This baby packs six barrels full of ink. Charge it up and let your enemies have it! Need some cover? Not a problem. Throw down your Splash Wall! This bad boy also comes with the Inkzooka Inkstrike (Sorry squidfriends, I am too excited to read properly) as a special weapon. It might just be the best weapon for squids that have watched too many 80′s action movies!

Also entering the game at 7 PM PT tonight is the Slosher. This might look like an ordinary bucket, but it's actually a weapons-grade bucket! Hurl ink straight ahead over an impressive range, and adjust your angles to hit opponents above you or behind walls. The Slosher comes with Burst Bombs and the special is a hot pastrami on rye! Er, wait. Sorry. I mean Inkstrike. Got a little excited about today's lunch delivery.

GATHER ROUND, KIDS AND/OR SQUIDS! Let's have a quick huddle to talk logistics for the update. The Splatoon servers will be offline from 5:50 PM PT - 7:00 PM PT for a bit of maintenance and to, ya know, add the update! You won't be able to play online during this period. Once the servers are back up, you'll be able to play the update! Let's go over what's coming tonight, shall we?
- More than 40 pieces of new gear
- Two new weapon types, the Slosher and Splatling
- Squad Battles
- Private Battles
- Level Cap Increase
- Ranked Battle Level Increase
- Updates to Urchin Underpass
- New Music
I don't know about you, but this squid researcher is jumping for joy about all the new things coming tonight.

These guys are the Chirpy Chips. With their sea anenome lead singer and a sparkling electronic sound, this unique four-piece has been setting the Inkopolis Top 40 on fire! Take a listen to their latest single, Shellfie, which is also the background music you'll be hearing during battles now!

It appears that Squid Girl gear has shown up in Splatoon! From what we're hearing, this new Squid Girl gear will show up in the Booyah Base now that the August update is live!

The Japanese branch of the Squid Research Lab recently informed us that a Squid Fashion Contest was held in Famitsu Magazine. The winning outfit, a sushi chef outfit, is available in the Booyah Base as part of the new update!
This was the illustration of the sushi chef outfit for the Squid Fashion Contest. It's an image overflowing with Japanese aesthetics and sensibility as seen in the calligraphic brush style. The headband gives the look a festive appearance, and the whole thing comes together so well.

The time to make a decision is now! The next North American Splatfest starts TONIGHT at 9 PM PT, and we're going to need to know if you're Team Marshmallow or Team Hot Dog. Common sense tells us that food cooked on sticks just tastes better, but only one food can be the BEST.

Introducing.... Rainmaker! In Rainmaker, both teams compete to snag the, uhhh, Rainmaker. Once you've got it, the goal is to carry it into the other team's base!
How's it work, you ask? As soon as the battle begins, grab onto that Rainmaker! It's guarded by a shield, though, so you'll need to bust it out first. Once you snag it, head for the other team's base. And be quick about it!
If you run out of time or get splatted, the Rainmaker will be dropped and its shield will also reactivate. The Rainmaker is crazy heavy, so you can't Super Jump while carrying it. Hopefully your teammates will watch your back!
But don't think the Rainmaker is just some shiny object - it can shoot ink like an Inkzooka. You can even hold to charge the Rainmaker up for an extra-powerful shot! The closer you get to the enemy base while holding the Rainmaker, the lower your goal distance will drop. If you retreat too far while holding the Rainmaker, it'll explode sooner! If the battle ends without anyone carrying the Rainmaker to the goal, the team with the lowest goal distance will win.
#Splatoon #SquidLab #Nintendo #WiiU #Rainmaker #I dare you to make it through your first battle without yelling MAKE IT RAIN!

Happy Monday, Squids! It's come to our attention that some of our junior squid researchers (that's you guys!) might not actually have their very own copy of Splatoon yet. Imagine a poor, poor junior squid researcher staring longingly at their Wii U and letting out a sad sigh. If this is a scenario that you're familiar with, boy howdy have we got a proposition for you!
Visit the Nintendo eShop and download the Splatoon Testfire demo to your Wii U. Launch the demo from 3-5 PM PT on August 21-23 and get ready to get inked!

Flounder Heights has joined the map rotation! Try as you might, you can't ignore the apartment building in the middle of the map. It stands like a gigantic wall, looming over the battlefield like an ominous, erm, an ominous... apartment building, I guess.
Will you make your stand in a hail of ink on the rooftop? Will you try and sneak your way through the middle? Whatever your strategy, there's no getting into enemy turf without getting past this monolith.

The Bamboozler 14 Mk I is a reissue of a weapon used during the Great Turf War. It charges up extremely quickly and boasts great range even when not fully charged. If you're looking for a weapon that your great-great-great-great-great-great grandsquid would have been comfortable sportin', check it out in Sheldon's shop tonight at 7 PM PT.

The L-3 Nozzlenose D is a specially designed L-3 Nozzlenose with an adorable logo on it. The sub weapon lets you finish off opponents who are still standing, and the special allows you to strike from up close. It'll be available tonight at 7 PM PT.
