Splatoon 2 is a third-person shooter developed by Nintendo Entertainment Planning & Development, released for Nintendo Switch in 2017. Players control Inklings, characters capable of switching between humanoid and squid forms. In humanoid form, Inklings wield weapons to spray colored ink across the environment and engage opponents; transforming into squid form allows them to swim through ink of their own color, granting faster movement and restoring ammunition. This dual-form mechanic shapes both combat and traversal throughout the game. Multiplayer is central to the experience, with teams competing across various objective-based modes where controlling territory with ink is as important as eliminating rivals. The interplay between spreading ink and navigating it gives the game a strategic dimension that distinguishes it from more conventional shooters in the genre.
