Splatoon Is Getting A New Map, Mode And A Tribute To The Light Gun


Nintendo announced today that Splat Zones, a ranked battle mode, would unlock June 1 at 7 PM Pacific Time, along with a new map and weapon along with a free map, called Port Mackerel. In Splat Zones, players battle over control of a single piece of turf on the map for a set amount of time. A team that holds the zone and burns down the control timer to zero is declared the winner. Also starting tonight players will be able to unlock the N-ZAP85, a tribute to the light gun peripheral called the Zapper for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Nintendo describes the N-ZAP85 as a "rapid-fire shooter with some impressive ink efficiency." It comes with a Splat Bombs and an Echo-locator special weapon. It’s nice to see content come out for a game that isn’t even a week old yet . The N-ZAP85 is an awesome tribute to the light gun and I can’t wait to use it. I also can’t wait for more maps to be released as Port Mackerel seems to switch things up.
