Splatoon 2's DLC weapon rollout continues with the Classic Squiffer

More On: Splatoon 2

Nintendo's frequent release of free DLC weapons for Splatoon 2 continues with another throwback to Splatoonthe Classic Squiffer. My computer is pretty insistent that I really mean to say Swiffer here, but I'm not really sure what a Classic Swiffer would bring to the world of Splatoon. Squiffer it is.

The Classic Squiffer should be a familiar sight to Splatoon veterans. It's a charger with fairly short range, but it more than makes up for that shortcoming with its charge speed. If it's fully charged, it can let loose with some pretty mean attacks as well. Not only that, but it also comes equipped with Point Sensors and Ink Armor, so it's by no means a bare-bones addition to the lineup.

As with the other weapons added in this particular chain of DLC, the Classic Squiffer will cost you exactly zero real-life dollars. You only have to drop some in-game currency on it at Ammo Knights. The next Splatfest is coming up in a couple of weeks, after all; will this charger be in your armory when the time comes?
