Another Splatoon 2 DLC item has been revealed, as the Splatoon 2 Research Lab introduces three new special weapons – the Bubble Launcher, Splat Dualies and Soichuba (Sniper).
Splatoon 2 releases in less than 2 weeks, however, SplatoonJP have shown no signs of slowing down their updates. Today fans have been gifted new details for three Special Weapons joining the Splatoon 2 Gear List.
Make sure to check out all the listed Special Weapons here.

Bubble Launcher
This is a new weapon joining Splatoon 2, and interestingly it’s noted as coming as post-launch DLC. We’re yet to see pricing on DLC for Splatoon 2, but if the first game is anything go by, it should be free.
The Special Weapon 「Bubble Launcher」。
You can make a maximum of 3 of these gigantic soap bubbles.
Hit this giant bubble with your teams ink to make it grow, and in the end a massive explosion will occur.
On the contrary, when it’s hit with the Enemy team’s ink, it becomes smaller.
The Bubble Launcher will be added after the release of the game.
スペシャルウェポン「バブルランチャー」。
巨大なシャボン玉を最大3発作りだす。
シャボン玉は味方のインクを当てると大きくなっていき、最後には大爆発を起こす。
逆に、相手のインクが当たると小さくなってしまう。
バブルランチャーがついたブキは発売後のアップデートで追加されるぞ。 pic.twitter.com/n4l46dCOpV— Splatoon（スプラトゥーン） (@SplatoonJP) July 13, 2017
Splat Dualies
We’ve seen the Splat Dualies before, and even had some fun with them in the first Splat Fire. It seems the Research Lab has taken this opportunity to suggest that any Weapon Type is a possibility.
The new maneuverable Weapon Type, proving that many types of models can exist – these are the 「Splat Dualies」.
Making you light-weight and pulling off the Quick Slide is this weapons specialty.
It’s bullets are light-weight – but – by sharply sliding and sneaking into your opponents face, with rapid-fire you can gracefully slash your opponent!
新しいタイプのブキ、マニューバーにも、いろいろなタイプのモデルが存在することが確認された。
これは「スパッタリー」。
軽量化によりクイックなスライドが行えることが特徴だ。
射程は少し短いが、鋭いスライドで相手の懐に潜り込み、高速連射で一気にトドメを刺そう。 pic.twitter.com/DjVliLczEm— Splatoon（スプラトゥーン） (@SplatoonJP) July 13, 2017
Soichuba (Sniper)
The Sniper (Japanese name Soichuba ソイチューバー) returns to Splatoon 2 with some slight modifications – it’s like a new model. This weapon essentially acts as both a long range sniper and a close range shotgun – you just need to be precise when up close!
Despite this being a previously confirmed Weapon Type, a new Model has come into existence.
This is the 「Soichuba]。
The Full Charge condition can be maintained as the Charge Keep time is now very long.
Let go of a Charge, and the Charge Keep will take out a nearby enemy in one hit – this Charger opens up a new world of battle strategy!
これまで確認されたタイプのブキにも、新しいモデルが存在するようだ。これは「ソイチューバー」。
フルチャージ状態を維持できるチャージキープの時間がとても長いチャージャーだ。
離れてチャージを行い、チャージキープで一気に近づき相手を倒す、チャージャーの新たな戦法を開拓しよう。 pic.twitter.com/gJGBd8tnxV— Splatoon（スプラトゥーン） (@SplatoonJP) July 13, 2017
