Customer Ratings & Reviews

Fun game that anyone can play, but has a lot of depth in terms of learning weapon styles and strategies. Lots of customization options and weapons to choose from. The Splatfest events are a blast. I only wish it was easier to play with friends, as it does not let you control whether your "group" is on the same team or not.

I cannot get enough of this game! I got hooked w/ the first one and couldn't resist to get the 2nd one. Unfortunately the server issues that players experienced w/ the 1st game were not 100% fixed. You will experience some connection loss between games while playing on the Splatfest, but that is more Nintendo's fault.

Very much like the first Splatoon with new weapons, stages, and customization options. The new Salmon Run mode is very fun and adds another way to play the game. The story mode feels like it built upon the basics of the story from the first game, adding more challenges and new mechanics. Extremely fun, well polished game.

So the game itself is fun, albeit a bit repetitive. I bought it to play with a friend that lives in a different state, but the way Nintendo has set up multiplayer is...unfortunate. I'm not sure if it's different with more than a total of two people (as in, you and your friend). To have a chance at playing with your friend, you have to join their lobby once they've queued for a match. Often times, you won't join the lobby in time and will have to wait 3 minutes for their current match to end before joining. Then once you're finally in the lobby, the chance of actually being on their team is totally random, and you'll usually end up fighting them instead of playing with them. You can't duo queue into competitive (ranked battles.) You CAN form a team for League battles (another competitive mode) but you have to have a full team (a total of 4 friends.) The PvE multiplayer mode (Salmon Run) is much easier to join and play with a friend...except the part where it isn't available at all times, so some days if you want to play PvE with a friend you're just out of luck. I would only recommend this if you aren't getting it specifically to play with friends. That being said, I haven't tried the local host multiplayer mode (which requires everyone to be in the same room). And not splatoon's fault, but Nintendo requires the use of an app via your smart phone if you want any sort of typical online multiplayer experience.

This is an excellent game on switch. Competing, exciting shooting game yet not requiring an excellent aiming. A lot of completely different weapons to choose from. The original joy con may not be a good choice for long time playing though. (My hands get tired after like 2 hours) A pro controller might help.

I heard about the original game a while back, but didn't check it out since I barely played my Wii U and didn't wanna chance a loss. Bought this day 1 and have been extremely satisfied with it! With it's nearly daily updates, fresh gameplay, excellent community and fun environment, Nintendo did AMAZING with this new IP!

This game is incredibly fun; although there are some "issues" as far as voice chat goes, and some of the design decisions in online (cannot exit lobby), those don't detract from the amount of fun in this game. I'd give it a 9/10; it's as fun as Mario Kart, and is truly a great game for Casual and more Hardcore players.

A gift for my granddaughter. She loves it and with school out , she will probably be playing a great deal. Ordered on line the process was easy and enjoyable

Splatoon 2 is a good game. It has a decent single player campaing but the multiplayer aspects of the game are very fun.

I was hesitant to buy this his because the art style never grabbed me, but boy was I wrong. The soundtrack is top tier, gameplay addicting in small bursts, story mode has amazing bosses and overall, the game just has this special charm to it. Highly recommend.

fun game with good single player and multi player.

I had never owned a Wii U, so I never played the original Splatoon. I had only ever seen gameplay online. However, from what I have seen, this game takes everything Splatoon had and expands on it. The controls are very responsive, the graphics are great in both docked and handheld mode, and that colors are very vibrant.

I honestly am in love with this game. It has an amazing story mode a challenging process. Salmon Run is my favorite feature as it allows you and others to fight Salmonoids together. Nintendo provides us with daily updates such as new weapons or other patches/buffs. I recommend this to anyone that is up for a challenge.

This is a great alternative to brown cover shooters. This is a bright and colorful, fast paced fun game with a solid first player campaign and endless multiplayer. The game has been out for over a year and Nintendo continues to support and release new content so it is definitely worth the investment.

My 9 yr old daughter loves this game. from the occasional splatfest battles to the online play and story mode, she simply had hours of fund. fyi - she finished storymode pretty quickly, but tons of fun with the online battles with online users. also, octo expansion is coming!! she reminds me of this daily

Got this game on sale for my son. He loves it. Not only was it in stock but on sale. Thanks Best Buy Love the colorful graphics this game has and very friendly mild violence.

If you enjoyed Splatoon on Wii U, this new game has a great new campaign, and awesome new mode in Salmon Run, and has all the same, awesome multiplayer fun you're expecting! Splatoon 2 is the real deal! The game is so much fun to just play around with! Definitely highly recommended for any Nintendo Switch owner!

Improved sequel in almost every way. Incredibly addicting. The portable aspect of the Switch shines with this game.

Splat splat fizz fizz, splatoon 2 will trip your trigger and leave you begging for more! Twice as much! Hint: take the curmudgeon seriously in level 7 or you will pay. Other than that, the game leaves you belly laughing like you’ve been tickled.

Calling this Splatoon 2 might be a stretch. There aren't crazy changes to consider this a complete sequel. Still, if you haven't played Splatoon 1 on the Wii U, I highly, highly recommend this game. There's no excuse for you to skip out on this! If you have played the original, you know exactly what you're in for.
