In Splatoon 2: Octo Expansion, the players assume the role of a new Octoling character named Agent 8. At the beginning of the game, the protagonist wakes up on a metro station and he or she doesn’t remember the past. In order to discover what happened, the players must get to the surface of Inkopolis and complete 80 new missions. The majority of these missions take place in a mysterious underground building.
