If you have the first one it’s the same thing ... minus split screen

This game is terrible. Not kid friendly and not fun at all.

Bought for couch co-op bjt this is not a feature of the game. Have to sit through a lot of characters yammering at times. Waste of money for me but since it was digital purchase I was stuck with it. Only played it once :( I know others like it so you might too but not for me

Don't be fooled by the colors and childish look, Splatoon 2 is a competitive yet entertaining game that is a MUST for the switch. If you're skeptical about getting it, just give it a chance, Nintendo sets itself apart from the competition and their games drag me back every time. I find myself picking up the switch to play Splatoon 2 versus picking my my Xbox controller to play battlefield 1. 100% recommend Side note: the only way to play local multiplayer is if each player has their own switch, two people cannot play on the same console, which, is the only downside to this game.

This is the second game I fell in love after Breath of The Wild. I didn't play the first game but I love this one so much. The single player campaign is well designed and fun to play. The online match is easy to get hand on but hard to master. Althoguh every match only has 3 minutes, you are doing useful things throughout this entire 3 mins. Noob like me can also feel a sense of contribution and keep playing. The hode mode is addictive as well. Need team co-operation a lot. Yes, there is no local multiplayer unless you have two Switches. But I blame people who dont do their research before buying.

I only got to play the original splatoon a little as I only had a 3ds not a wii u. I thought it would be amazing if Splatoon came to handheld. Little did I know that would come true! The original Splatoon was a great new IP for Nintendo and Nintendo has polished that formula with Splatoon 2. I didn't notice any big differences but I love being able to play with the Pro controller rather than the Wii U gamepad. I am surprised this game has not sold more. Personally, I would put it up there with Super Mario Odyssey, BOTW, and Mario Kart for must own games on the Switch. I also absolutely recommend the Octopass. It was an extremely fun single player mode that turned me into a Splatoon fan! The challenges, visuals and music are all fantastic. I just wish I could get the soundtrack!

i've owned this for a few years. i can say right now that it is great fun and definitely kid-friendly, but cannot give it a 5/5 for 2 reasons. 1: you NEED a wired ethernet connection. playing on wireless, it does not matter how good your connection is, it will drop and YOU get in trouble if you disconnect from matches even if it's nintendo's awful online's fault. 2: you cannot backup save data. if you lose it somehow or your switch is damaged, that's it. it's all gone. no cloud backup allowed. aside from this, it is a fun game that doesn't require precision aiming to enjoy, much more about teamwork. single-player on one console. don't buy this and expect to let 2 kids play on one console unless they take turns.

Splatoon 2 is a sequel to the first game, Splatoon. It has very alike similarities, such as characters (Inklings) and maps. The great thing about this game is how motion controls gather suspense not only in-game, but in the real-life. I've absolutely LOVED the controls since the very first day of Splatoon! Graphics in Splatoon 2 are just fantastic! Game runs at 60 FPS, and 1080p! How can a game get any better than that? The price is totally worth it, never in a million years would I regret sayin' that! I would totally recommend this to a friend! The Squid Research Lab's (Creators of Splatoon, Splatoon 2) really put great effort into this game, I rate it 10/10!

This is one of my favorite Switch games. The gameplay, graphics, and single and multiplayer are significantly improved from the original. The DLC is great.

This game is a must own for the switch. very addicting! this a great multiplayer & single player mode with plenty to do i already got over 130 hours in and its still fun!

I loved the Wii U version and had to get the Switch one and I have to say the changes are great and I love Splatoon franchise so much! Please Don’t let the design of the game fool you cause any age can play. I’m 20 and I’m probably never leaving this fandom. It’s so colorful and fun and I can’t get enough. Though I still play the Wii U version time to time I have to say Splatoon 2 is just so great overall! My in-game name is NARUTO with a star and if you see me don’t hesitate to click with me! :D Such a good idea for a game, for those ppl who would never play COD or something. Haha. 10/10 I swear!

I put a lot of hours into the first one. The beta for part 2 was awesome and yet it was just a shell of what the entire game will have in it. Glad to see that they'll be fleshing out other modes. Easily a must buy for the Switch. Also a console mover if you don't own a Switch yet.

What makes Splatoon 2 great is the fun gameplay which anyone can pick up and play and not feel like they are letting their team down. You can be a pro player or you can be a beginner and you can have fun with this game. Other online shooters if you don't know what you are doing you will get killed over and over again. This one lets you help your team from the get go while you improve over time.

First things first, no split screen co-op. Some might find that disappointing, seeing that this is a game with multiplayer focus. It's more of an Overwatch than a Call of Duty. There is a local multiplayer but everyone needs a copy and a switch. That aside, the game is exsquidsite, highly replayable moreso with friends, it can get pretty deep in terms of strategies and builds.

Splatoon 2 builds upon Splatoon (what a surprise). If you enjoyed the first game, chances are you'll love Splatoon 2 just as much. If you haven't played Splatoon before, this one is just as good to make a splash with. There's lots of customization, different play styles and options, and a few different modes. At it's core it's a chaotic action game that leaves an inkpression.

When the game was first released you could play the multi-player online battles for free, just like in the Wii-U version. After a recent update, a 20 dollar per year membership is required to play online. That 20 dollar fee is for 1 account. If you have a family membership, then it is 35 dollars per year. This was an easy 5 stars when it was first released. Because they added the membership fee for online play, I feel like this was a bit of a bait and switch.

I absolutely like this game, Do not get hesitant with the camera, you will get used to it eventually, and there is ways of not getting killed or falling off if u are really careful. Over all have fun and enjoy the paintball shooting You will become a pro by level 3 & ITS REALLY EASY TO GET TO THAT LEVEL :)

Super fun and addicting to play. Fun challenges and obstacles

If you liked the first one, you´ll love this sequel. Better graphics, new modes and weapons, better single player experience, it´s just a nice fast and fun package that you just can´t get enough.

This is a great game. I am having fun with the game and my son is enjoying the game. I wish there were 2 person split screen but still a really good game.
