Splatoon – Meet the Octarian Army

Nintendo’s newest franchise, Splatoon, is now available on Wii U. We are counting down the weeks until the launch with weekly Splatoon giveaways and a steady stream of game tips and info on some of the wacky characters, weapons and game modes!

This week is all about the enemies and maps!

Enemies:

• Octoling: Octolings can appear in pairs or even larger teams from time to time.

• Octotrooper: Foot soldiers of the Octarian army. They seem to come in a variety of types, from hovercraft-riding attackers to sentries who guard specific spots!

• Shielded Octotrooper: Octotrooper with a shield! These suckers will block any attacks from the front. Hide out for a bit and then attack from behind, or maybe try and distract them with something

Stay on your tentacles; these aren’t all the enemies you’ll encounter in Splatoon.

Map:

• Saltpray Rig: A dangerous stage known for the large chasm between its high and low areas. Both teams will surely attempt to claim the large area on top to earn a victory from above!

• Walleye Warehouse: A close-quarters map where teams will be locked in a tug-of-war on two sides of a series of obstacles.
