Nintendo has revealed that Splatoon 2‘s next update will arrive next week, with changes set to go live from 22nd April.
The update, which was seemingly accidentally mentioned by Nintendo on social media ahead of time last week, will be distributed at 10am on on 22nd April in Japan (so that’s 2am BST / 3am CEST in Europe, and 6pm PDT / 9pm EDT the day before in North America).
Patch notes for this update haven’t been released in English at the time of writing, although the official Japanese notes mention a number of minor adjustments to main, sub and special weapons. The update before this – Version 5.1.0 – arrived in January, also making a number of weapon adjustments.
