Splatoon 2 got a big new update yesterday that adds in a brand new game mode, but Nintendo certainly isn't slowing down with bringing new content to the game. Tomorrow, the company will be adding in a new map, though this one is a bit of a throwback.
Splatoon 2’s Japanese Twitter account just revealed that the map is Walleye Warehouse, one of the initial maps available in the original Splatoon. The map goes live at the following times:
– 6 PM PT (December 14)
– 9 PM ET (December 14)
– 2 AM in the UK (December 15)
– 3 AM in Europe (December 15)

This was one of my favourites!
Walleye Warehouse was a lot of fun in the first game. My favourite of the returning maps so far.
Just bought the game and aw yiss, loved this map in the first game.
Can’t help noticing that I’ve been more excited for returning maps than I have been for new ones.
Wow tough question. Was a big fan of skatepark,mall , museum and the resort from the original. As for the second game I don't think I can really pick a favourite out of all the map
Nintendo really does a great job of updating their games, they provide the kind of content automatically for free that most companies seem to charge for now a days.
Never've been a fan of it. Too many bad memories of Chargers camping at that little tower in the middle and dominating the entire game. But then again, there haven't been as many safe spots for Chargers in S2 so I'll def check it out.
A little off topic, but does anyone else kinda hate clam blitz?
Maybe I’m in the minority because I still use dual thumb sticks instead of motion controls, but it puts players in my camp at a HUGE disadvantage. They assigned the action that throws the ball to the A button, meaning I can’t aim while throwing. Why not assign it to one of the thumbstick buttons instead?
I mean I’m all for different control options, but giving one option a clear advantage kinda stinks. Hope they fix it in a patch
@FatAlbert1 You can throw clams with L
Looks fun to play in as a Rapid Blaster user. Bring in all the old maps!
The first splatoon map I ever played. Great when your team controls the center; tough when you get pinned in at your base. The Ink Strike was always my ace in the hole...wonder how to play it now....
This is a classic. I really miss the maps from the original game and getting them back one-by-one is great. My fingers are crossed for Saltspray Rig to return someday!
This feels kinda nostalgic, being the first map I played on during the 1st Global Testfire. I wonder what other kind of changes they've done to it. They've made the sides wider, that much I know.
Also, it seems like the Slosher Deco is coming back this weekend, as well. It looks like it's getting the sprinkler instead of splash wall this time (from what I could make out from the Japanese Twitter) so I'm not that into it. I wouldn't mind the Soda Slosher coming back if they keep the point sensor. And I'm still miffed that the Sloshing Machine never got a 3rd variant. Maybe this time it will.
Loved this map as it always seemed like the hardest one to dominate. In my experience I either lost really badly or won by a landslide lol.
This was one of my least favorite maps from the original game. Hope they revamp and improve it somehow.
Some bad memories of losing in Tower Control here. I still welcome all maps so I will try this new version.
@chardir It blew my mind when my friend told me you could throw them with L. I went through a whole tournament (and won) without knowing that. I think I'll likely continue to use A though, as I'd prefer to not take my finger off the swim button if I can avoid it.
Nice! Now we just need Flounder Heights!
Quick advice for people living in Germany: Don´t use M-Net as Internet provider, you wont be able to play online due to their stupid NAT configuration and restricted IPv4
I rarely play online (well until Rocket League) Wondering if the single player modes alone are meaty enough to warrant a purchase?
