[Octo] In total, there are more than 80 stages to sink your teeth into. However, with the help of Off the Hook, you can skip levels you are too weak to complete. Even if you receive help you can become an octopus once you've escaped, so players who are not confident in their skills should not worry.

|
[Octo] The performance of octopus girls and boys in regular battles and ranked battles is exactly the same as squid girls and boys. Your gear is shared between the characters in your account. Once you've cleared the Octo Expansion, you will be able to choose squid and octopus from the customization menu.

“
|
【オクト】彼は「アタリメ司令」。
タコ軍団から人知れずイカ世界を守る「New!カラストンビ部隊」を率いている。
年老いてはいるが、誇り高き歴戦の勇士だ。
弟子の「3号」と共にパトロールをしていたはずだが、なぜか地下世界に迷い込んでしまい、3号ともはぐれてしまったようだ。
|
”
|
|
|
[Octo] He is Cap'n Cuttlefish. He has led the "New! Squidbeak Splatoon" to protect the squid world from the octopus forces. Although he is old, he is a proud warrior. He should have been touring with his disciple, Agent 3, but somehow got stuck as well as separated from Agent 3 after straying into the underground world.
|
“
|
【オクト】地下世界の移動に欠かせないのが、この地下鉄「深海メトロ」。
地下の生態系は閉ざされた空間で独自の進化を遂げているようで、見かける乗客の姿も、地上の住民とはずいぶん雰囲気が異なっている。
見た目はちょっとおっかないが、悪い連中ではなさそうだ。
|
”
|
|
|
[Octo] This subway, the "Deep Sea Metro", is indispensable for movement in the underground world. The underground ecosystem seems to have evolved independently in this closed space, and the appearance of its residents is quite different from those above ground. They may look scary, but seem not to be bad people.
|
“
|
【オクト】深海メトロが停車する「駅」。
各駅がそれぞれ実験施設と直結しており、あの手この手の仕掛けが8号に襲いかかる。
駅によって達成条件もさまざまで、スペシャルウェポンのみで挑戦するステージなんかもあるようだ。
さまざまなブキとテクニックを駆使し、地上を目指せ!
|
”
|
|
|
[Octo] A "Station" where the Deepsea Metro stops. Each station is connected directly to an experimental facility, and at its hands Agent 8 faces her challenges. There are various goals to accomplish in each station, and some stages even offer only special weapons. Leverage various weapons and techniques and aim for the surface!

フシギな見た目だが、ありとあらゆる業務をそつなくこなす有能な職員だ。
困ったときは、ナマコ車掌に話しかけてみよう。

”
|
|
|
[Octo] This is the talking sea cucumber, C.Q. Cumber.
He is the guide for the underground world.
Despite looking fishy[d], he is a competent staff member and perfectly suited for all kinds of tasks.
When in trouble, try talking to C.Q. Cumber.
|
“
|
【オクト】これがタコの若者がタコに変身した姿だ。
いや、ヒトの姿が変身後で、こっちが本性……とか、細かい話は面倒なので置いておこう。
見た目は違うが、インクの中を素早く泳いだり、スーパージャンプをしたりと、できることや性能はイカとまったく同じだ。
|
”
|
|
|
[Octo] This is the young octopuses' octopus form
No, after the kid form has been transformed, this one is really natura... Um, I think I'll leave that part of the detailed story for later.
It looks different, but it can swim as quickly in ink, Super Jump, and do everything exactly like the squid form.
|
“
|
【オクト】これは、「デンワ」。
地下世界に迷い込んだ8号に進むべき道を教え、探索に必要な「NAMACO端末」と「NAMACOカード」を与えてくれる。
なんだかいろいろ知っていそうな口ぶりだが……。
|
”
|
|
|
[Octo] This is the Telephone.
It provides Agent 8, who is lost underground, with the "CQ-80" and "CQ Card" that are required for exploration.[e]
It speaks as if it knows all sorts of things......
|
“
|
【オクト】「NAMACO端末」は探索にかかせない、地下の実験施設専用の端末。
地下鉄の車内でNAMACO端末を使うと「深海メトロ路線図」が表示される。
路線図で行きたい駅を選ぶと、そこまで連れて行ってくれるぞ。
|
”
|
|
|
[Octo] Don't go trying to search for the "CQ-80", it is used only in the underground facility.
When the CQ-80 is used in the subway car, the Deepsea Metro route map is displayed.
If you choose a station on the route map, you will be taken there.
|
“
|
【オクト】各駅には改札があり、ここから実験施設に繋がっている。
改札でNAMACOカードにチャージされている「NAMACOポイント」を使ってチャレンジができるぞ。
チャレンジをクリアすると、「クリアほうしゅう」がもらえる。
使うブキによって、もらえるポイント額が異なるようだ。
|
”
|
|
|
[Octo] Each station has a ticket gate, which leads to an experimental facility.
The facility can be challenged by spending "NAMACO Points" which have been charged to the NAMACO Card.
If you clear the (selected) challenge, you will receive the (indicated) "Clear reward".
It seems that the amount of points received varies depending on the weapon you choose.

“
|
今年の夏発売予定の「オクト・エキスパンション」には、ロボットボムのモデルとなった「しんかい6500」が深海の調査をしている姿で登場するらしい。
イカ世界の深海にも、まだ謎は残されているようだ。
|
”
|
|
|
It seems that the Shinkai 6500, which was the inspiration for the Autobomb's design, is investigating the deep sea in the Octo Expansion scheduled for release this summer.
Apparently, there are mysteries left in the deep sea of the squid world, too.
|
“
|
【オクト】彼らは「深海の住人」と呼ばれている、深海メトロの乗客たち。
少し変わった彼らの姿は、特殊な環境に適応した結果らしい。
8号やアタリメ司令には関心がないのか、話しかけても答えてはくれないが、深海には独自の生態系……というか、社会があるのかもしれない。
|
”
|
|
|
[Octo] These are the "Deep sea dwellers", the passengers of the Deepsea Metro.
Since their environment is a little special, it seems their appearance has changed and they have adapted.
Even if Agent 8 or Cap'n Cuttlefish talk to them, they will not respond, but the deep sea seems to have its own ecosystem... or society.
|
“
|
【オクト】の主人公は、タコの種族「オクタリアン」の若者。
オクタリアンは、能天気なイカの種族「インクリング」に比べて、真面目で几帳面な性格の個体が多いらしい。
手先が器用で、道具や機械類の扱いに長けているそうだ。
|
”
|
|
|
[Octo] The protagonist is a young member of the octopus race, the Octarians.
Many Octarians seem to have a thorough and serious character, in contrast to flighty nature of the squid tribe, the Inklings.
They are said to have dexterous hands and to be good at handling tools and machinery.

|
[JAMSTEC×Splatoon 2] Smoke and bubbles are blowing out of buildings like the Octo[f] train station. Similarly, in the real deep sea, there are places where water made hot by contact with underground magma is blown out. This mysterious spot might be where life itself was born.
Continued in joint research report 10, "Black Smoker".

[JAMSTEC×Splatoon 2] C.Q. Cumber of the Octo Expansion is similar to sea pigs that live in the deep sea. They have appendages used for mobility and sensation with tubed feet, similar to starfish and sea urchins. C.Q. Cumber, you're so cute...
Watch a video of the deep sea's sea pig in joint research report 11.

|
[Octo] His name is Iso Padre.
He looks a little scary, but in reality he's a friendly gentleman.
He seems to be interested in a certain thing that can only be acquired in the underground experimental facilities
|
“
|
これは「ネリメモリー」。
実験施設でのチャレンジをクリアすると手に入れることができる。
8号の失われた記憶の断片が練り上げられてできたものらしい。
集めてグソクさんに見せると、喜んでくれるぞ。

”
|
|
|
These are "Mem Cakes".
They can be obtained by clearing the challenges in the laboratories.
They appear to be Agent 8's lost memories, which were knocked out of her.
If you collect them and show them to Iso Padre, it will make him happy.

Giant isopods, who live in the Gulf of Mexico, are the world's largest isopods[g]. They are carrion eaters, and are also called "The sea sweepers". Do you also think "Iso Padre" is beautiful?

Those who ride the Deepsea Metro are dignified passengers.

He is sound asleep, and it looks like he can't be woken up.

[JAMSTEC×Splatoon 2] On the Deepsea Metro is a large-bodied person with a big nose. In their habitat, the deep sea, the blobfish do not have this appearance. Why do they on the ground?Joint research report 15, "Deep sea resident, the blobfish" - he's actually kinda cute!

|
[JAMSTEC×Splatoon 2] If you look carefully at the deep sea in Octo[f], you will see what appears to be snow coming down. This is marine snow. Dead plankton and other remains pile up in the deep sea. It serves as the base of the deep sea food chain.
Joint research report 16, "Marine Snow", provides more details.

[Octo] These Deepsea Metro passengers... ... of sorts, are stuck to the walls and floor everywhere.
It's strange to imagine how they get on and off the train.

[JAMSTEC×Splatoon 2] These cute, big-mouthed passengers are riding aboard Octo[f]'s Deepsea Metro. These are predatory tunicates. As their name implies, they are ascidians which have big mouths[h], but why are they opening their mouths?

[Octo] This is the "Chat Log".
The two members of Off the Hook are watching Agent 8 and Cap'n Cuttlefish's escape attempts from above ground, and created a chat room to kill time while waiting - you can see its history here.
It would seem you can learn about Pearl's and Marina's as well as Cap'n Cuttlefish's personalities from these faithful conversations.

[JAMSTEC×Splatoon 2] The ping-pong tree sponge is a type of sponge which is very similar to a certain Octo[f] deep sea dweller. Are hints for building networks in society hidden in its art-like form and ecology? More details can be found in Joint research report 21, "Deep sea resident, the sponge".

[Octo] She is Dedf1sh (pronounced "Dead fish").
Even though she was a promising up-and-coming DJ, while searching for the ideal music she entered the underground experimental facility and got sanitized.

[JAMSTEC×Splatoon 2]By the way, this is a member of the family Synaphobranchidae. It seems to have swallowed some large food, as its belly is rippling with it.
