Tower Control, a new game mode, was added to Splatoon yesterday. This mode has been added to Ranked Battle, which also includes Splat Zones. <\/p>\n

The objective of Tower Control is to ride a single floating tower into the enemy\u2019s base. Both teams rush toward the tower, which is initially placed in the center of the map, and the tower will start moving automatically once a player climbs aboard. But beware: Riding the tower will increase the chances of being splatted, as every player has his or her target on the tower. Riding the tower alone is pretty tough, encouraging randomly selected teams of players to team up to accomplish their goal. <\/p>\n

Just like in Ranked Battle and Turf War, players will be rewarded for working together as a team. Surrounding the tower and protecting the player riding the tower, using each stage\u2019s features to gain an advantage and supporting each other are the keys to victory. <\/p>\n

Tower Control launched last night at 10:00pm ET.<\/p>\n
