Excellent Atmosphere, Varied Mission Design, Fun level gimmicks
Rehashed bosses, Occasionally frustrating challenges, Arbitrary point system
Overall, Octo Expansion is an absolute steal. At $20, you're getting a very creative and engaging campaign that expands the world of Splatoon 2 with diverse gameplay, although a small portion of these levels feels like monotonous filler. Luckily, the abil...
Splatoon 2 is a charming and very engaging shooter, both hardcore and casual players alike will find something to love about Splatoon 2. Some strange limitations to gamemodes and multiplayer are bothersome but do not detract much from the overall enjoyabl...
Abstract: One of the greatest success stories of the Wii U, and believe me there are very few, is how well Splatoon was received by Nintendo fans. Sales for the unique third person shooter were massive, with nearly one in every three Wii U owners purchasing a copy...

Still visually gorgeous, New weapons are fun, Salmon Run is great
Weird online drawbacks, The app for online features

Turf War is still awesome, Great new weapon types, Plenty of multiplayer options both online and local
