The Li'l Devil Horns are headgear in Splatoon 2.

They are a 3-star item produced by SquidForce and come with the primary ability Ink Saver (Sub). It can be obtained by visiting the Splatoween news article on the Nintendo Switch news channel. They can also be purchased from SplatNet 2 Gear Shop for Cash 11,550.

Appearance

The Li'l Devil Horns are a plastic headband with horns and a battery compartment behind the wearer's right ear and a smaller compartment between the two horns. The horns are lit up from the inside, making them glow in the dark.

The wearer will also have small gemstones on their face, the placement and appearance of which change depending on gender. Female Inklings and Octolings have patches of many gems varying in size and color below both eyes, while males wear two pairs of similarly sized blue gems, one pair below their left eye and the other above their left eyebrow.

How to obtain

The news article through which the gear can be obtained is no longer available for EU players. NA players can still get it for free using the following steps:

  1. Open the Nintendo Switch News application and select the article about Splatoween.
    • The article is titled Free Download! Celebrate Splatoween with this spooky in-game gear.
    • If the article is not visible, subscribe to Squid Research Lab Report and allow time for the news application to update with Splatoon-related news.
  2. Select the "Happy Splatoween" button located at the bottom of the article to start Splatoon 2.
  3. Open the box that appears in the middle of Inkopolis Square.

If this does not work, start over at step 1, or view the video demonstration below.

Abilities

The Li'l Devil Horns come with Ink Saver (Sub) as the primary ability when purchased from a shop or ordered from Murch. When purchased from SplatNet 2, they come with any other primary ability normally available to Headgear. As a 3-star item, the Li'l Devil Horns come with three additional slots for secondary abilities. Since they are made by the SquidForce gear brand, they have a higher chance of rolling Ink Resistance Up and a lower chance of rolling Ink Saver (Main) to fill their secondary ability slots.

Trivia

  • The Japanese name for the Li'l Devil Horns, translating to "Sea Slug Headband," refers to the horn-like rhinophores of sea slugs and other gastropods. As nudibranchs are suggested to exist in the world of Splatoon, Inklings and Octolings may wear the headband in reference to them instead of horned mammals, which are likely extinct.
  • The Russian name for this gear seems to have been confused with the translation of the Anglerfish Mask's name, probably due to both of them being released for the same event.
  • Based on their SplatNet 2 price, it can be deduced that the normal price of the Li'l Devil Horns would be Cash 7,700 if they were purchasable from Headspace rather than obtained from the Nintendo Switch news channel.
