One of the reasons behind Splatoon 2‘s ongoing popularity has been Nintendo’s excellent post launch support for it, with free maps, modes, gear, and weapons added to the title on a weekly basis. For that last one, a new weapon is added to Splatoon 2 every week- but, Nintendo has announced, it will be changing things up a bit from here on out.
Instead of one weapon added every week, Nintendo will add four weapons every month. Functionally, that comes down to the same thing- but it leads to a slightly more stable metagame, since instead of always having to adjust to a new weapons, players only have to adjust to new ones once a month. This also means that each new weapons drop is likelier to have something that you will end up liking.
Splatoon 2 launched exclusively on the Nintendo Switch last year. Later this year, it will be getting the new story expansion Octo.
