Update (11/27): Next up is a look at the Neo Splatana Stamper, Robo ROM-en, and Bluefin Depot:
Remember our Splatlandian social-media coverage of Robo ROM-en the other day? Let’s take a deeper dive! It seems that the stage has plenty of sloping surfaces that intersect three-dimensionally. Should make for some spicy battles! And check out the bonus footage of Bluefin Depot! pic.twitter.com/Xeuldcm07V

Moving to Bluefin Depot… Some squidheads may remember this stage from Splatoon, but these renovations are new. The depot is no longer a functional coal mine but a living museum! You may be able to take advantage of some of the Inkling moving tech that was installed for the reno. pic.twitter.com/hFaVShXdcC

Update (11/28): The news continues on, this time for the Triple Splashdown, Enperry Splat Dualies, and Custom Blaster:
Check out this video. If you’re on the receiving end, watch out for areas where the explosions overlap. You can try to splat the player who’s activating the special—or the giant fists—but if you don’t get all three of them, there’s still going to be some significant splatter. pic.twitter.com/YBqqPwzTn2

Last one for today. Check out the Custom Blaster, a base Blaster that’s been upgraded with custom parts. Does it do more damage or fire differently? No, but it does come with the Point Sensor to help suss out enemies and the Triple Splashdown to obliterate them! pic.twitter.com/sbRItuif6M
