Template:- Template:Infobox mode Tower Control is a form of Ranked Battle that is coming to Splatoon on July 1st, 2015.[1]

Description

In Tower Control, two teams of four Inklings fight to control a central Tower. The Tower is a tall, blue structure with ink-able walls and a grate platform for players to stand on. When a player reaches the top of the Tower, it will begin moving on a rail toward enemy territory. If the player standing on the Tower falls off the platform or gets killed, after a short amount of time, the Tower will begin moving rapidly back to the center. Because of this gameplay element, the player on the Tower is a constant target and must be guarded by teammates on the ground.

The score is measured by how far into enemy territory a team has rode the tower. If a team manages to get the tower to the enemy goalzone (where the score counter will reach zero indicated by a glowing floor tile) then said team will win the match, and achieve a Knockout score. If the game timer runs out with the tower in a neutral state, the team with the smallest distance number will win. If the game timer runs out and the tower is still controlled by either team, then the game will go into overtime until either the controlling team manages to get the tower to the goalzone, or until the tower goes neutral.[2]

Trivia
