Summary
Splatoon 2 is a multiplayer third-person shooter in which players control characters known as Inklings and use colored ink to attack opponents and clear goals. Inklings can alternate between humanoid form, during which they can fire ink with their weapons, and squid form, which allows them to swim through ink of their own color in order to move quickly and replenish ink supplies.

OpenCritic reviews
Splatoon 2 is just about everything you could ask for from a sequel. It builds on everything the original set up and then some; almost every single major issue people had with the first game has been resolved, showing that Nintendo is genuinely listening and wants to deliver the absolute best experience possible. It maintains the freshness you'd expect...
A great evolution of Splatoon's original formula, but doesn't do enough to become a real contender on the competitive scene.
Despite imperfections, Splatoon 2 improves on the original, and is a colourful, joyous addition to the Switch.
Nintendo doesn't do simple, straightforward sequels all that often, but this time it has.
