Tinktures were previously exclusive to idol characters, but now they can now be applied to your Inklings as well. There are additional fashion options as well, such as tinktures (secondary hair colors) that you can add to your Inkling as well, as well as different eye designs.

Following that, you can choose your hairstyle, skin color, eye color, etc, and then after that you continue to the next step of the startup. You have five different types of species to choose from. When you first start up the game, you are first taken to the character selection. The city that you start in can be changed in the menu. As an additional quality-of-life bonus, this is one of those games which is exempt from Nintendo Switch Online, which means Nintendo Switch Online is only required for backups/additional saves for this game. When you first boot up the game, you are taken through a few steps before playing the game. As an option, news introductions can be skipped in the settings. Normally, when booting up the game after going through the introduction, you'll be shown a view of your city of choice (Inkopolis, Octopia, Gladiusburg or Akrasville), and then you'll move on to the news introduction. The opening cutscene can be replayed from your phone menu by going into Sunken Tapes and to the Introduction cutscene. After this, you'll be brought to the character selection screen. The main menu screen is turned off automatically and is not seen again unless the player decides to enable it in the options.

Pressing any button will cause him to brandish the Inklight completely unfolded, proceeding to the startup screen. The main menu is a windy city skyscraper-like area (at nighttime with cities in the background) with the Vanisher and his weapon, the Inklight. It shows the 5 different species throughout as well, but in the end it shows one of the antagonists, the Vanisher, unleashing ranged ink-waves and a tornado around him. Upon booting up the game for the first time, there is a pre-rendered cutscene that shows the various aspects of the game the four cities of Inkopolis, Octopia, Gladiusburg, Akrasville, and the 8v8 Turf Wars battle.

When you import, up to 5 random primary weapons will be selected to be taken along, with variants of weapons not included. You'll still be able to play the previous Splatoon games using that save file, but it will be flagged as "used" when importing, meaning you cannot import this savefile again afterwards. Note however that this will only be done once per save file. Ranks will not be affected, but your maximum starting level from important is level 20. When booting up the game, if the game detects save data from previous Splatoon games, you can import it in for additional items as well, such as badges. Unlike previous Splatoon games, you now have the capability to use your previous save data file for something useful in this game. Although it is the fourth Splatoon game, it is not intended to be accurate to the timeline and ignores the results of the previous final Splatfest, which was done to make the universe of Splatoon easier to introduce to newer players of the franchise. The name is a combination of two words "splat" and "universe".

It features new and refined gameplay that stays true to the previous Splatoon games but makes it more user-friendly while keeping old players of Splatoon refreshed. The icon for this game shows four icons the Inkling, the Octoling, the Hareling, and the Branchling, represented in orange, purple, green, and sky blue. The start-up image (the background that shows when loading the game from the home menu) shows a Inkling viewing a panorama of the entire Inkopolis city, with various buildings like Inkopolis Tower shown. It features multiplayer matching based on dedicated servers instead of Peer-2-Peer, which was used in all of the previous games. The main boxart shows 8 Inklings (orange and blue) on both sides unleashing a 8v8 Turf War, showcasing the new 8v8 Turf Wars mode. Splatoon: Splativerse, also known as Splatoon 4 or Splatoon ULTIMATE, スプラトゥーン-スプラティバース in Japan, is a MOBA/third person shooter/action game developed by Nightingale Labs in collaboration for Nintendo for their 10th gen console, the Nintendo Switch 2, and was released in May 2025 to coside with the tenth anniversary of Splatoon.
