***Players are no longer able to jump across a gap in [[Camp Triggerfish]] that granted them easy access to the other team’s turf.
***In addition, a landscape flaw found in [[Arowana Mall]], that allowed squids to access a ledge leading to the other team’s base, has been fixed.
**[[Main Weapon]] Adjustments
***For all players equipped with a [[Roller]] weapon, the camera angle has been adjusted for a wider view. Previously, when players raised their Roller (when splatting ink, for example), they were not able to see the entire weapon.

***When standing behind a [[Splash Wall]], players will no longer receive damage when hit by a bomb.
**[[Tower Control]] Adjustments
***When each team’s goal distance was almost equal in value, the computed result displayed as the same number for each team. This bug has been fixed.
***Additionally, a bug that prevented the opposing team from taking the lead after advancing the tower to the same distance has been addressed.
**Other
***After installing update [[Version 2.0.0]], many players experienced error code 104-2230 which required them to restart their Wii U system before seeing the changes from the update. This issue has been fixed.
