Meet Diss-Pair, the odd-couple duo delivering discordant ditties that have turned the music scene upside down. The group is made up of Ikkan, former bassist of the world-renowned Squid Squad, and Warabi, the up-and-coming prodigy beatsmith. These two are a mismatch made in heaven. When crafting new songs in the studio, they avoid each other at all costs to ensure each track maintains its one-of-a-kind edge and tantalizing tension.

After that intro, I'll bet you can't wait to hear their first song, Seasick. This little number features the hard-rocking riffs and heavy metal vocals that Ikkan sometimes used in the Squid Squad's songs. Listen as the electric rhythms stitch their threads between the driving bass beats in this banging battle backdrop.

And don't sleep on the latest track they've dropped, Kinetosis. This gem features Warabi's funk and dance-steeped programming, paired with a lively, bouncy bass beat that just won't quit. It's hard to know if these two are complementing or competing with one another, but whatever the case, the result is an overwhelming aural onslaught.

As you might have noticed, Ver.4.0 added a new automatic spectator camera function in Private Battle mode. Our colleagues captured a video using this function to show how it works! You can see updates near the player icons in the upper portion of the screen, which now display the combined total of splats and assists, number of specials used, and current special gauge amount.

According to our research, there seems to be a higher percentage of "ghouls," "jack o' lanterns," and "pumpkin-flavored treats" being spread around. Yes, there's no mistaking: it's time to get excited for Splatoween!
Both Inklings and Octolings are going batty about this special Splatfest happening later this month. The spooky celebration runs from Friday, 10/19 at 3pm PT, to Sunday, 10/21 at 3pm PT - 48 hours total!
Speaking of treats, you can get special in-game treats! Via an upcoming Nintendo Switch News article scheduled for this Friday, 10/5, you'll be able to receive four different pieces of spooky headgear. You will need to follow the Squid Research Lab Report (Splatoon 2) News Channel on your Nintendo Switch, and launch the Splatoon 2 game from the corresponding news article. If you haven't followed the channel yet, now is a great time to consider it!
You will receive:
- Kyonshi Hat
- Li'l Devil Horns
- Hockey Mask
- Anglerfish Mask
Our researchers have two notes about this:
1) Please make sure that you either have the game card inserted or the digital version of the game on your system.
2) Be sure to receive the items before the article ink-dives off your news feed. We recommend grabbing the items as soon as possible!
Reports indicate that Inkopolis Square will also be getting quite the Splatoween makeover to spice up the festive atmosphere. You might even spot other residents of Inkopolis getting into the spirit!
Even battle stages will receive Halloween-themed graffiti. Outside of battle, you might want to use the Recon feature to freely explore!
We hope you enjoy Splatoween and the spooktacular in-game gear!

Everyone in the research lab is excited for International Octopus Day and the return of Inktober!

If you're participating in Inktober and draw anything Splatoon 2 related, tag it with Splatoon Inktober so we can check it out!

We just uncovered more details about an upcoming new special weapon! The Ultra Stamp lets players attack with an enormous hammer. Pressing and holding the ZR Button allows you to advance while striking with the hammer! It looks like you can guard ink attacks coming from the front, but your back is exposed.
If you press the ZR button while you're in the air, the Ultra Stamp will flip vertically so you can attack opponents mid-air. You can also throw the stamp with the R button to attack a distant opponent! Of course, throwing away your special weapon will end your attack.

We've just received a fresh report about a new sub weapon called the Torpedo. When thrown near an enemy it changes shape and targets the foe, exploding on impact and splatting ink everywhere. Torpedoes thrown by opponents can be shot down with your attack.
