Just like Splatoon 1, but with more to do! The Octo Expansion DLC especially was fantastic, if brutally hard.

The dripfeed of content approach that Nintendo takes with their sports games really started to show early signs of cracks here, as it meant that the game lost interest for me quite quickly - and when I returned, I had no fun, as I was constantly beaten down by all the veterans who stuck with the game. Still, it was a stroke of genius to have a game like this so early on in the Switch's lifespan, and goes to show just how strong the IP is.
