Bugfixes und Balance-Wechsel
Wer Splatoon 2 im kompetitiven Modus spielt, dürfte sich auf der Spitze der Rang-Leiter freuen. Bei einer Niederlage ist es nicht mehr möglich, in einer höheren S-Rang-Klasse direkt auf S+0 abzustürzen. Ab sofort fallen Spieler bei einer Niederlage um maximal 5 S-Rang-Punkte.
In Salmon Run dürfen sich Spieler auf zahlreiche Bugfixes freuen. Darunter ist auch der Fehler, dass zwei Waffen einfach nicht auftauchen, obwohl sie dies in der laufenden Kombination tun sollten. Weitere Fehler, die ihr weiter unten in voller Länge aufgelistet bekommt, wurden auch in allen anderen Modi behoben.
Zahlreiche Waffen wurden außerdem in ihren Fähigkeiten überarbeitet – einige wurden abgeschwächt, einige verbessert. Dadurch soll die Balance in allen Modi gewahrt bleiben. Eine Übersicht über die Änderungen findet ihr ebenfalls weiter unten.

- Fixed an issue causing incorrect animations to play when objects other than players, such as Inkrails or Splash Walls were damaged while viewing a particular player’s perspective.
- The sound effect that plays when taking damage during regular play now also plays when viewing that player’s perspective in spectator mode.
Other Changes
- Fixed issues while creating posts in which 1)lines drawn outside of the frame and then back into the frame failed to properly appear and 2)the “undo” function failed to work properly.
- Fixed an issue when testing weapons in which coming into contact with one of the targets immediately after performing a vertical swing with a roller failed to deal contact damage.
- Fixed an issue when testing weapons in which coming into contact with one of the targets continuously with a Brella-type weapon incorrectly only damaged the target once.
- Fixed an issue occurring when exceeding the number of displayable League Battle results caused recent results to not be displayed instead of the oldest results.
- Updating to Ver.1.4.0 will disable wireless matchmaking for local multiplayer with players using Ver.1.3.0

- Fixed an issue causing the predicted range of the sub weapon to incorrectly display when readying an Ink Storm special while also equipped with either a Point Sensor or Toxic Mist sub weapon.
- Fixed an issue causing the inking effect of an Ink Storm special to occur unnaturally when the storm intersected with a roof or other similar object in a stage.
- Bubbles from the Bubble Blower that burst after the end of a match will no longer ink the stage.

- In Rainmaker mode, equipping weapons such as the E-liter 4K and Dynamo Roller will no longer lower movement and swim speed while holding the Rainmaker.
