The S-BLAST '92 is an upcoming weapon in Splatoon 3.
Appearance
The S-BLAST '92 bears resemblances to a bazooka. The body consists of a wide barrel with white and gray accents and a red tip at the end, with a scope mounted at the front. The body is connected to a handle in the middle and a shoulder mount on the back. A decal with the words "Super Scope" is printed on one side, and similar to the N-ZAP '85, it appears to be in English rather than the traditional Inkling language.

On 17 May 2023, Nintendo uploaded a dedicated Twitter post showcasing gameplay from the S-BLAST ‘92, confirming the weapon's kit to be Sprinkler and Reefslider.
Quotes
“ | SRL Ballistics here. Wooo! It's good to be back. And we are SO BACK with exclusive imagery of the new S-BLAST '92. What a weapon. This baby has two firing modes - one designed for precision and range, and the other designed for EXCUSE ME and KA-SPLOOSH!
Sorry - we're just so excited. Check out this video of the S-BLAST '92 in action. No batteries required! And note that jumping while firing is how you activate the shorter-range firing mode with bigger blasts. Keep your feet on the ground to hit faraway targets with precision. |
