Trivia
- Before being officially announced, the Clash Blaster Neo appeared in theSplatoon 2 version 3.0 preview section of theNintendo Direct on8 March 2018.[6]
- It was shown to come withBurst Bombs andTenta Missiles. However, laterdatamining and the final release have shown the weapon to come withCurling Bombs, in contradiction to the video.
- InSplatoon 2, the Clash Blaster Neo is one of the only three weapons to be unlocked simultaneously with its alternate kit, theClash Blaster. The other pairs are theH-3 Nozzlenose D andCherry H-3 Nozzlenose, and theE-liter 4K Scope andCustom E-liter 4K Scope. It however remains as the only completely unique weapon.
- This is due to the Clash Blaster being unlocked at Level 30, which is the highest level for unlocking weapons.
- This is no longer true inSplatoon 3, since the Clash Blaster Neo is unlocked three levels after the Clash Blaster.
