Here's your first look at the new Splatoon update

New stage and gear due this weekend.

Splatoon will be receiving two new stages and 14 new pieces of gear, Nintendo announced today during its latest Nintendo Direct presentation.

A software update is due tomorrow, 13th November, and will include 14 new pieces of gear.

The following day a new stage will appear called Museum D'alfonsino. Set in an art museum, D'alfonsino will contain five pieces of rotating scenery as you vandalise the crap out of this place.

Another stage, Mahi-Mahi Resort, will arrive further down the line and is set in a poolside resort where the water level descends midway through the battle revealing further ground to conquer. Despite being a squid, you're not able to swim in water.
