The Splat Brella Comes To Splatoon 2 Later Today

Splatoon 2 continues its plans to release free DLC for the game intermittently, and this week, we're getting a unique weapon: the Splat Brella.

The weapon, which functions as both a shield from ink and as an offensive weapon that can fire the head as a rocket, will be available in the in-game Ammo Knights store tonight at 7pm Pacific Time.
