Two more weapons are coming to Splatoon tomorrow (tonight in North America), giving players even more options when it comes to deciding on their perfect load-out.
The Range Blaster and Inkbrush Nouveau are the weapons in question. They're not entirely new weapons but variations on already-available armaments.

Remember, there's a massive update coming to the game next week, too. It adds squad and private battles, a new level cap, more weapons and new pieces of gear.

Boring gives use some new weapons!
Welp, less then a week until we get lots of goodies!
Range Blaster could useful. Roll on major update! I do wish they'd do a Ranked Turf War though.
Are there any plans for any NintendoLife Splatoon teams?
@CTMike And a non-ranked of the Ranked gamemodes. I hope they engineer a twist on Turf War for Regular Battle, it would be cool to play more than just one gamemode without worrying about losing your rank like I always am...
I just got Splatoon yesterday ,unfortunately I was heading to work when it arrived... :-/ My kids have been loving it though! I've my two nephews this morning so I still haven't got a chance to play myself lol. They don't even have a Wii U but know all about it as they've been watching videos on YouTube
@Calllack I know right? Once I got to A+ 30, I just stopped ranked. I'm too scared of losing my rank :I
@MJKOP Welcome to your new favourite game
I'm level 17 and I don't think I'm gonna make 20 in time for the update. Really, hoping it'll still be possible to socket items at 20 and not 50, nightmare 😓
Finally the Inkbrush I've been waiting ages for.
Wow, couldn't they wait until the update? (Or at least until I return from vacation...oops, same day!) Seriously, as a Blaster user I'm dying to know what the changes are on this new version! Bing loosely translates the JP Twitter post that it takes longer to explode(?) and extended range is sacrificed (??) Wait, what? That doesn't seem useful!
Love all these new weapons, but ... still gonna stick with my trusty aerosprayer RG.
@masterLEON sentence structure/word order in Japanese is often massively different so translation apps don't work too well. It may well be saying the opposite
Isn't the weapon in the picture an Octobrush, not an ink brush?
Those weapons look good. I'll try them out once I start playing Splatoon again after the update. I'm giving Splatoon a break for now since I got obsessed with my ranking, and was only playing to increase my ranking instead of having fun.
"Or tonight, if you're in North America"
Thank you @Damo
Yeah, I'm gonna have to go with @pherret022 on this one. That's definitely an Octobrush. As it's just a "Nouveau" one, like a Deco or whatnot, shouldn't it look identical to the Ink Brush but with a different set?
How about a charger blaster? It could have a range between a squiffer and a jet squelcher (about 72) with the impact of the OG blaster but the mobility and charge time as a 3K to balance it out. That would be pretty cool like a mobile mortar.
@Damo The range blaster is a different (completely new) weapon, it just looks like the normal blaster, think 52 vs 96 gal.
I'm hering its an octobrush, none the less its a brush, and I'll probally test and buy it coz ya know brushes are cool. been using the Nzap89 as of late though or w/e the orange gun is called. might buy the other weapon as well idk tbh.
@Dark-Chespin Where did you find the glory that is your avatar??
@Fandabidozi New weapons at each level up to level 20. The new update promises rewards each 5th level.
NL Clan coming back in action ? I'll hype it up again just like i did for GE Wii back in the day.
To be honest, I don't really remember
I believe that I just googled: "Nintendo gifs"
