Nintendo has released the version 2.1.0 update for Splatoon 2, which adds Clam Blitz to multiplayer and several adjustments.
Here is the full list of changes, via Nintendo:

Fixed an issue in which a player submerged in a wall or a thin ground surface would take damage from the opposite side of the terrain.

Fixed an issue in which a player behind a Splash Wall or a launched Brella would take damage from the opposite side if the distance between the player and the Splash Wall or Brella was close.

Fixed an issue on Manta Maria in which, if a player did a Splashdown on a specific place, they would be treated as out of bounds after landing and be killed.

Fixed an issue in Turf War on Manta Maria in which the area beneath the thick pillars was inkable, and was counted as part of the turf.

Fixed an issue in Tower Control on Manta Maria in which players were able to jump from a high spot near the center of the stage to a part of the opponents base.

Fixed an issue on Snapper Canal in which bombs would disappear without exploding when coming into contact with certain walls.

Fixed an issue on Blackbelly Skatepark in which if a certain wall was hit with a bomb, ink would splash onto a nearby wall that players were occasionally unable to submerge into.

Fixed an issue on MakoMart in which a certain railing could be seen through by pulling the camera close to it.

Slightly adjusted the tower path in Tower Control on MakoMart in order to fix a rare issue in which the player could be sandwiched between the tower and terrain, causing them to be pushed inside the terrain.

Fixed a rare issue in which, when the player does a Splashdown near a tower, they could pass through the terrain and fall out of the stage.

Fixed an issue in which, if the player closed their umbrella the moment that a bomb exploded, neither the umbrella nor the player would take damage.

Fixed a rare issue in which two Ink Storm clouds would be generated when a player directly hit a Splash Wall or Brella with an Ink Storm, depending on how it was hit.

Fixed an issue in which, when a player using the Inkjet touches water and is forcibly returned to their original place, they would be treated as if drowning and be killed, depending on the place.

Fixed an issue in which the camera would abruptly move if the player did a Splashdown near some fences in places like Kelp Dome.

Splatoon 2s Next Weapon Is The Undercover Brella. December 29, 2017 . 11:00am

The Undercover Brella, with its Ink Mines and Splashdown, is heading to Splatoon 2.

11 comments Read >

Nintendo has announced Splatoon 2s next weapon. It is a third Brella variation. The Undercover Brella will be added to the game at 6pm PT/8pm CT/9pm ET on December 29, 2017 and 2am GMT/11am JST on December 30, 2017.

The Undercover Brella is the third Brella weapon in the game. It is a bit more subtle, in terms of appearance, than the Splat Brella or Tenta Brella. (I think it looks like something The Penguin would have used in Batman Returns.) Its sub weapon is the Ink Mine and special weapon is Splashdown.

Splatoon 2 is available for the Nintendo Switch.

Changes to Regular Battle

When playing multiple matches with few allies your Vibe Meter will not change when you lose.

Changes to Multiplayer

Fixed an issue causing the ink tank display to mistakenly appear empty when in squid form and low on ink.

Fixed an issue causing an unnecessary hit animation to display when a Curling Bomb slid across a Sponge.

Fixed an issue causing Sponges not to change size when hit with a Curling Bomb on a particular side.

Fixed an issue making it difficult to place Ink Mines on top of the tower in Tower Control.

When attacking a player performing a Splashdown special just prior to their descent, the condition of the attacking players internet connection determined whether or not damage would be dealt. Damage will now always be dealt correctly regardless of connection condition.

Due to this change, the situation will no longer occur in which damage is dealt regardless of whether or not the attacked player appears to take damage or not just prior to starting their descent when performing a Splashdown special.

Fixed an issue causing players using brush weapons who performed an attack while simultaneously activating a Splashdown special during a super jump to not perform the Splashdown.

Fixed an issue in Tower Control matches causing players caught between a stage terrain feature and the metal grating portion of the towers platform to be pushed inside the stage feature.

Fixed an issue in Rainmaker matches causing the explosion animation from the Rainmakers shots to appear after the actual explosion when its shots hit a Splash Wall or expanded Brella.

Splatoon 2 Fixes Its Bubble Blower Issues. July 27, 2018 . 10:00am

Splatoon 2s latest patch fixes competitive play issues where the Bubble Blower special was a little too good at protecting against damage.

2 comments Read >

Those playing Splatoon 2 may have noticed an issue with the Bubble Blower special weapon. Namely, some bombs would deal no damage even if they hit a bubble, while bubbles ended up being an unintentionally good way of stopping the Rainmakers attack from doing the level of damage it was supposed to. Well, the game has been updated to version 3.2.1, which remedies both of those issues.

While the Bubble Blowers are the main issue being fixed, some other Splatoon 2 problems are being remedied. Tenta Missiles can impact a Rainmaker barrier position. Also, Salmon Run stages will no longer hit a Golden Egg limit if tons of Snatchers are around.

Here are the full Splatoon 2 3.2.1 patch notes from Nintendo.

Changes to Competitive Play

Fixed an issue where bombs thrown from some types of Bomb Launchers would not cause damage when they directly hit a bubble from a Bubble Blower.

Fixed an issue where a Rainmaker shot that hits a bubble from a Bubble Blower would only do some of the intended damage.

Fixed an issue where Tenta Missiles fired while locked on to a Rainmaker barrier would not impact the position of the Rainmaker barrier.

Changes to Salmon Run

Fixed an issue where, when a lot of Snatchers are present, the max number of Golden Eggs on the stage goes down and new Golden Eggs do not appear.

Downloading this update data will make it so that you cannot communicate with players using previous update data when in The Shoal.

Fixed an issue when dodge rolling on the inside of a grating, in which the player mistakenly rolled the same distance they would when on the ground although they were moving in midair.

Adjusted the sound effect caused when an opponent enters the area of effect of Toxic Mist, making it easier to distinguish if they are nearby or far away.

A sound effect will now play when using the gear ability Drop Roller.

Fixed an issue preventing players from tossing a bomb or clam when using the Nautilus 47 if the bomb or clam was thrown at the same time the charge from a stored charge shot expired.

Changes to X Power and League Power in Ranked Battle

When playing Ranked or League Battles as a pair, your rank meter, X Power, or League Power will no longer decrease when playing with fewer members on your team due to internet disconnections for an even shorter period than was previously the case.

If internet disconnections prevent a player from finishing enough matches out of the last few dozen matches played, the decrease to their rank meter or X Power for each subsequent unfinished match will be greater than it was previously.

Changes to Salmon Run

Players are now able to review stats for their last 50 Salmon Run jobs via the SplatNet 2 portion of the Nintendo Switch Online smart device app.

Other Changes

Voice chat will now be available via the Nintendo Switch Online smart device app when playing with friends in certain modes, even when creating rooms without selecting “Online Lounge.”

Players can also choose not to enable voice chat when creating rooms in this way.

This applies to the following modes which previously functioned with the Online Lounge feature: League Battle, Private Battle, Splatfest Battle (Normal) with friends, With Friends (Salomon Run).

Fixed an issue occurring after Splatfest Battles, in which the Splatfest rank meter would go up continuously and repeatedly.
