Splatoon: new map + weapon + Ranked Battle mode coming in a few hours; screens and videos

Splatoon came out last week worldwide, and the Ranked Splatometer is already filled! That means the Ranked Battle mode is now unlocked, and the first one (Splat Zones) will be released… in just a few hours, actually!

But that’s not all… Nintendo will also release a new weapon and a new map in a few hours:

– new weapon: the N-Zap85 (based on the NES Zapper), which allows you to quickly charge the Echo-Locator. It comes with Splat Bombs;
– new map: Port Mackerel;
– Ranked Battle mode: Splat Zones (where two teams compete for the same space, at the center of the map).

The new content will be released in just a few hours:

– Europe: 4AM, tomorrow
– UK: 3AM, tomorrow
– North America (EDT): 10PM, today
– North America (PDT): 7PM, today
– Japan: 11AM, tomorrow
