Customer Ratings & Reviews

Splatoon 2 is a great game following up the original one. Controls feel smooth, the design of the game is nice and its easy to pick up on. I would say definitely a fun game for people who want to play shooters and especially for the parents who doesn't want their kids playing games that kill people.

I never played the first but wow this game is so addicting. It's even better that you can take it anywhere with the Switch. After years of shooters feeling stale, this game is very refreshing. However, the online chat functionality is practically non-existent which is unfortunate in a team shooter.

This game is fun and has no shortage of Nintendo's charm. Local split screen would have been nice though.

I hadn't played the first game going into this second but I had heard great things and wanted to see what the hype was about. Turns out it is very warranted, it is one of the most fun shooters I have played in a long time! Single player and multi-player are equally as interesting. Highly recommend!

I didn't play the original Splatoon and, based on videos, it looked more like a kids' game that a 35-year-old wouldn't find fun. The lack of Switch games and the very high scores made me take a chance on it, and I'm glad I did. It's certainly a fun time and a wonderful distraction to have on the go. It's not my favorite game in the world, but I've enjoyed it. (It's also the first game in a long time that had me laugh out loud at random moments.)

As someone who never played Splatoon 1, I have to say that I love Splatoon 2. The online play is so fun and has great variety (turf wars, ranked, and this cool team effort called Salmon Run). The story mode is fun too, and the expansion to the game can add hours of additional play.

The game is extremely fun. You can go play a Regular match which, imo, is the casual side of the game to have fun. Then, the ranked games are super competitive. The need to win is there and thats what makes this game for me! It has 2 of the best sides of multiplayer in it for home and on the go.

Great gameplay mechanics. I didn't play Splatoon on Wii U, so this is my first go around with the series. Super fun to pick up and play. It's not soooo addictive that I can't stop after a few rounds. For younger players, I can see how the online play component could get too hard and frustrating.

Splatoon 2 takes everything that made the first one amazing and adds so much more! Tighter controls, better graphics, more items, and even more maps. Absolutely adore this "kid" friend shooter. And add the fact you can take it on the go and continue playing? Amazing! Totally worth the admission.

I waited so long to pick up this game and I’m finally happy I did. For me it took so getting used to the controls because I found them to be a little different but I think I’d play best with a pro controller. Either way this game is a lot of fun!

The Switch is a great gaming device but it is still lacking in the number of quality games. This is a very solid addition to the Switch lineup and will help pass the time between Zelda and Mario. It can be as competitive or casual as you want it to be. Very accessible for gamers of all ranges.

I love this game. I skipped Mario Kart 8 and Zelda since I have them on the Wii U and I never played the original game but I get the hype now. This game is just plain fun. I'm not one of those people who plays shooters and I usually hate those kinds of games but this is hours and hours of fun.

Easily one of my favorite Switch games! Don't let the cutsy graphical style fool you -- matches can get very intense and push you to be very strategic in your gameplay. The only downside is that there is no local co-op option. Nonetheless, I highly recommend this game.

The online multiplayer aspect of this game is pretty fun. Communication is limited if you're playing with randoms but that's probably to keep everything PG. I haven't played much single player since that doesn't get the heart racing as much as coming back from behind in any online game mode.

Bought this game for my daughter and she loves it. It is challenging getting used to the motion controls, more difficult for me then it is for her! Not sure if this game offers split screen for two or more players but it should be an option if not...please make it Halo style capture the flag!

Don’t worry if you’re unfamiliar with the original Splatoon that came out on the Nintendo Wii U console. This sequel delivers more of the same that made the original such a hit. Splatoon is a kid friendly take on the competitive shooter genre and is still a blast to play online and offline.

Principal at school forgot to invite me when my son got an award & invited me last minute & I was unable to attend. So as a proud mother of my son I decided to buy him this game he has been looking at in every store. Thank you!

Fun game with friends! though i feel like a pro controller might be needed for more comfortable play

Splatoon 2 is Nintendo's take on the shooter genre. It's cartoony, and fun and it's theme is appropriate for kids, however there is some depth there with regards to the various paint guns and the game play mechanic of winning for having more paint covering the arena than the other side. Overall, this game is surprisingly fun. It also has a single player mode that, while not remarkable, is fun to make your way through the various levels.

Another solid hit for the Switch. To be fair, the game hasn't changed much from the last game, but has an "everything old is new again" feel. The supers from the first game were replaced, and they added an awesome new horde mode. As for the rest of the game, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!
