The update will arrive in late April. The update will add 100+ pieces of new gear and three additional stages – Piranha Pit, Camp Triggerfish, and the brand new Wahoo World.
The company also announced that Splatoon 2 will also get paid single player DLC in the form of Octo Expansion.

One of the main announcements that came out from the latest Nintendo Direct is Splatoon 2’s first paid downloadable content, Octo Expansion.
Scheduled to launch sometime in the summer, the upcoming DLC is priced at $19.99 and requires the full version of the game; it can’t be purchased as a standalone title. Octo Expansion consists of a new single-player campaign and new stories that are meant to shed new light on characters from the game.
Very fresh right? But seriously who would not like more single player Splatoon 2 goodness.
