The game centers around characters known as "Inklings"—beings that can transform between humanoid and squid forms, and hide or swim through colored ink sprayed on surfaces using gun or brush-based weaponry. ''Splatoon'' features several gamemodes, including 4-on-4 online multiplayer and a single player campaign. ''Splatoon'' received positive reviews upon its unveiling and release, with critics praising Nintendo's decision to enter the genre with a new intellectual property, the game's overall style and presentation, gameplay mechanics, and its soundtrack. Criticism was directed at the exclusion of voice chat and private lobbies—features that are commonplace in the genre of multiplayer shooters, the small number of multiplayer maps, and issues with online matchmaking. ''Splatoon'' debuted to strong sales, debuting at number one and two respectively on sales charts in Japan and the United Kingdom; 144,000 copies were sold during its launch week in Japan, and the game was the fastest-selling new franchise on the Wii U in the United Kingdom. As of September 2015, 2.42 million copies of the game were sold. == Gameplay == ''Splatoon'' is primarily a team-based third-person shooter which is playable by up to eight players in online four-versus-four matches, although the game also features local one-versus-one multiplayer matches and a single player campaign. Players control characters called Inklings, who have the ability to shape-shift between humanoid and squid forms. In humanoid form, Inklings can shoot ink in their team's color, which can be used to cover the environment or "splat" opposing players or enemies. Transforming into a squid allows players to swim through ink of their own color, even up walls and through grates, hiding from the enemy and replenishing their ink supply in the process. Conversely, enemy ink is much slower to move across in humanoid form and cannot be swum through in squid form. Players can use their ink to try and "splatter" their opponents, which will send them back to their team's respawn point whilst also providing a large splat of ink. In all modes, players can use the Wii U GamePad to view a map of the surroundings and instantly launch towards the location of another teammate, as well as use optional gyroscopic controls to assist with aiming.〔 Players go into battle wielding a primary weapon; each has differing statistics and traits, along with a secondary attack (such as bombs, sprinklers, and disruptive fields), and a special attack that must be recharged between uses by covering ground with ink. Primary weapons range from those resembling machine guns, shotguns, Gatling guns and sniper rifles, to melee weapons such as paint rollers, brushes, and buckets.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://ca.ign.com/articles/2015/05/07/splatoon-new-maps-modes-and-weapons-coming-post-launch )〕 Weapons are sold in sets that can be purchased with money earned from battles, with more sets becoming available to the player as they gain experience. In addition, players can customize their character with headgear, clothes, and shoes from the neighboring shops, with more items becoming available as the player's level increases. Each item carries a "perk" that improves the player's statistics, such as faster respawn time or longer special duration. Additional perks can be unlocked by gaining experience in battles. When encountering other players in the plaza, players can choose to order an item another player is wearing and purchase it the next day from a backalley dealer named Spyke for a higher price.〔 The game also supports ''Splatoon'' series Amiibo, with each amiibo type unlocking a set of missions which unlock extra equipment (weapons and clothing) and a bonus minigame upon completion, which can be played on the Wii U GamePad while waiting in lobbies.〔 Players can also make posts to the game's Miiverse community, which appear in-game as graffiti on various buildings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.avclub.com/article/checking-splatoons-lively-community-and-sleazy-ami-220375 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Splatoon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
