There has been a new King Salmonid sighting!

This specimen is called Megalodontia, and is said to be much larger than any other King Salmonid seen so far. Its large mouth is said to be capable of eating just about anything. No further details are known, but according to Grizzco, it's likely to come ashore early December.

From Greater Inkopolis comes H2Whoa, with some refreshing BGM for battles! Despite having just formed, this band has already attracted tons of attention. The rock-loving youths of the Splatlands are puzzled, but can't hide their interest, saying "The pretentious lyrics and visuals are kinda annoying, but the candidness of it is fresh."

ハイカラ地方出身、H2Whoa（エイチツーウォー）の爽やかなナンバーがバトルBGMに加わるぞ。 結成間もないが既に注目を集めている話題のユニットだ。 ラウドロックを好むバンカラの若者たちも「スカした歌詞とビジュアルがなんか鼻につくが、正直そこがイカす」と、戸惑いつつも興味を隠せない様子だ。

One radio station in Splatsville gave one of their songs a heavy amount of play, and H2Whoa began to garner attention. Time to introduce, that song, called "Aquasonic". Cool down from a scorching battle with those husky and transparent vocals and synths, and a rhythm that speeds like a gushing stream of water!

バンカラ街のあるラジオ局が彼らの曲をヘビーローテーションし、H2Whoaは注目を集めるようになった。 その曲「Aquasonic」をご紹介しよう。 迸る水流のようなスピード感のリズム、ハスキーかつ透明感のあるボーカルとシンセに乗って、灼けつくバトルを涼やかにこなそう！

We have a new King Salmonid sighting! It has long, massive body, and is reported to swim slowly overhead...witnesses are calling it "Horrorboros." Further details are currently unknown, but according to Grizzco Industries, there's a high chance it will come ashore in early March.

We have obtained a document that appears to be a blueprint of the Splattercolor Screen that appeared in a recent video. It seems to be equipped with a mechanism to deploy a sheet, and is capable of affecting an Inkling's vision. Further research results will be reported on later.

What's new in the lobby? The Jukebox. If you put in 100G of cash, you can change the lobby music to whatever you like. During a private battle, the music of other players in the same room will also change. This is your chance to show off your favorite song to your friends!

The Super Chump is a new special weapon! Shoot a large number of decoys around where you target, and they'll stick to the ground. Decoys are destroyed when attacked by opponents, but decoys that aren't destroyed will explode and scatter ink after a set amount of time.

We've obtained footage of the Super Chump. A marker appears at the landing point of the decoy, the same marker that's used for Super Jumps. There's time between the launch and the landing of the decoys, so you can move to a better position while your opponents are distracted.

これは、新しいスペシャルウェポン「デコイチラシ」だ。 狙った地点の周囲に、大量のデコイを射出し、地面に張り付けるぞ。 デコイは相手の攻撃を受けると破壊される。 破壊されなかったデコイは、一定時間後に爆発して、周囲にインクをまき散らすぞ。

Time to unleash the new special weapon, the Kraken Royale! Transform into a giant squid or octopus and scatter your opponents. Jump to perform a spinning attack, which is low on power but has a wide range. You can also charge up with ZR to take out opponents in a single blow!

We've obtained a video showcasing the ecology of the Kraken. Although there's a slow start up and end time, once the transformation is complete, enemy damage is nullified. Combo those charged ZR button attacks, squid rolls, and squid surges to hunt down your opponents!

これは、新しいスペシャルウェポン「テイオウイカ」だ。 巨大なイカやタコに変身し、相手を蹴散らすぞ。 ジャンプで行える回転攻撃は、威力はやや低いが広い範囲を攻撃できる。 ZRボタンで行う突撃は、チャージが必要な代わりに、一撃で相手を倒すことができるぞ。
