Another Splatoon mode rolling out July 1
You can get pushy with Tower Control starting tomorrow evening, as long as you've unlocked Ranked mode.
Nintendo will roll out another ranked mode for Splatoon tomorrow, titled Tower Control.
Tower Control has players racing toward a tower in the middle of the map, and then climbing aboard to make it float towards the enemy base. As you might imagine, though, this makes the rider a target, so teams will have to work together to protect each other while heading for the enemy base. It will be available at 7 PM PT tomorrow, and you can see it in action today at 3 PM PT on Nintendo's Twitch channel.
Like other pieces of content this summer, Tower Control will be offered for free. Nintendo has made a point of supporting Splatoon with a steady stream of new content like modes and weapons. It will also be kicking off the first Splatfest on Saturday, July 4, letting players earn a special Sea Snails currency for their gear. Finally, Nintendo is promising an update in August with more matchmaking options.
