Due to that,I wasn't really feeling the hype as much as I should have been but then I played the Splatfest and man am I hyped again.

There’s also a brand-new array of special weapon powerups, many of which work well with proper coordination to break stalemates.It seems more like a refinement than adding anything really substantially new apart from the aforementioned Salmon Run.
