Ready to paint the town again?
Nintendo¡¯s colorful third-person shooter returns, ready to splatter players with ink and cuteness. When released in 2015, ¡°Splatoon¡± was a big departure for Nintendo. First, it was a multiplayer shooter. Second, its vibrant color palette ushered in a new look for Nintendo games ¡ª one that has been brilliantly continued with the recently released ¡°Arms.¡±
¡°Splatoon 2,¡± another entry to what is becoming a solid lineup of Switch titles, looks to be less of a departure from the previous game, but more of a follow up, which isn¡¯t a bad thing. As in the prequel, it is a team-based shooter that supports up to eight players in four-on-four matches. Players shoot ink, which they can swim through after transforming themselves into squids, and splat enemies. It features the previous release¡¯s gameplay modes, including Turf Wars and Tower Control, as well as a new four-player co-op one called Salmon Run. For this, players join forces to defeat an onslaught of enemies.
