There are two preset locations in every stage and any weapon can be used. Filters such as monochrome and sepia were added for use when taking photos with amiibo.[5]
Ranks and levels
- The maximumlevel was increased from 50 to 99.
- Players can speak toJudd after reaching level 99 to give them an option of returning to level 1 leveling up all over again.
- Players who choose to start from level 1 again will have a ★ icon displayed next to their rank.
- Access conditions for gear and weapons will not change even if a player decides to start over from ★1
- Players who choose to start from ★1 again will continue to receive prizes from Judd for leveling up.
- Players who reach level ★99 will have the option to start from ★1 again.
- The in-game ranking display of ★1 will not change, but players can see how many times they've returned to level 1 on SplatNet 2.
- When acommunications error occurs because a player is idle, the match will be judged not from the time after the error, but from when the time the player became idle. This effectively makes it less likely that an idle match participant will cause a drop in rank for the player.

Fixes and adjustments

Several ease-of-use changes were made to the stage selection screen forPrivate Battles. Players can select which stages will be available for random matches for Private Battles. Team selection will be maintained even if a member of a team leaves the lobby.
During Splatfests, a deployment diagram ofInkopolis Square during the Splatfest will be shown on the main menu map.
