Version 2.1.0 also increases the Angle Shooter’s damage output and doubles the radius of ink coverage. The Tacticooler’s Quick Respawn and Special Saver will no longer be negated by gear abilities like Respawn Punisher and Haunt, though the effects of both abilities will still occur. The patch also adjusts the Reefslider’s invulnerability timeframe to about 28/60 of a second. The Triple Inkstrike’s radius and damage output increase by 10% and 50%, respectively. The Crab Tank receives a buff that shortens its duration when using the Special Power Up gear ability. The Points required for some weapons, including the multiple versions of the Splattershot, lowered.

The latest Splatoon 3 update also fixes several bugs and glitches plaguing the game, including a few out-of-bounds bugs. An issue that allowed players to climb up unclimbable walls when using the Squid Surge and Squid Roll was fixed, along with several bugs with the umbrella, including one where the umbrella sinks into the ground after a player lands with it open. A glitch where shots fired from a moving terrain disappear rather than hitting and getting rebounded has been patched as well.

The update addresses several issues involving the multiplayer and Salmon Run, including a bothersome bug that prevented players from submerging in inked areas. The new version fixes a communication error in Salmon Run and patches a glitch that caused ammo stocked up for the Snipewriter 5H to vanish after depositing a Golden Egg. The full list of changes are detailed on the Nintendo Support website. Players can download the patch right now on their Nintendo Switch.
