Splatoon: two new weapons to be added in a few hours (Range Blaster / Inkbrush Nouveau)

Update

It looks like Nintendo sent the wrong picture for the Inkbrush Nouveau, so the image gallery below was updated with the right pictures.

During the Splatoon Direct, in May, Nintendo announced that new content (map and weapons) for Splatoon would be added regularly to the game. The point is obviously to keep players interested, so that they keep on playing without getting bored with the same weapons and maps (even though everything was simply locked away on the disc, so far).

This week, Nintendo did not to release any new maps (because there isn’t any left on the disc; more will be added via the upcoming update, next week), but Splatoon will get two new weapons tomorrow (this evening in North America), at the usual time.

Once again, there’s not one but two new weapons, which are as follows:

– Range Blaster: comes with the Splash Wall and the Inkstrike;
– Inkbrush Nouveau: comes with Ink Mines and the Bubbler.

Here’s some pictures for those new weapons (more will be added later today):

The new weapons will be added tomorrow at:

– Europe: 4AM
– UK: 3AM
– North America (EDT): 10PM (July 31st)
– North America (PDT): 7PM (July 31st)
– Japan: 11AM
