Just in time for the upcoming Splatfest, Splatoon is getting the new ranked game type Tower Control tomorrow evening. This game type will have players fighting for control of a mobile tower, with an Inkling having to stand on top of the tower in order to move it. Nintendo’s Treehouse demoed the game type during a livestream today, in which they also unveiled a brand new map, Moray Tower. The new map takes play on a high tower divided into several elevated platforms, and will feature a new level of verticality not seen in other Splatoon maps.
Tower Control will be available in Splatoon via Ranked Battles on July 1st at 7:00 p.m. PT/10:00 p.m. ET. No release date was given for Moray Tower, but the Treehouse crew stated it was “coming soon.”
