This DLC is great.

It's a single-player expansion that has no effect on the multiplayer except a cosmetic one -- complete the expansion campaign and you get to play multiplayer as an Octoling instead of Inkling.

It adds around 80 new stages to play in single-player, and it's a whole lot of fun. The stages have a huge amount of variety to them. The level designs aren't bound to the Super Mario Galaxy-like format of the levels in the original campaign. For a lot of them, there is a lot more challenge to them than the base game, including levels where you can't refill your ink, levels with time limits, levels where you defend a target and more. To balance the challenge, not every level needs to be completed, and if you die enough times on a level you have the option to skip it (but you don't get the reward from completing it if you skip). With the constraint about how easy it has to be lifted, the stage designers were free to get a lot more creative and ambitious with what they could do with these stages.

In my opinion, it's just a much better single-player campaign than the base game's single-player campaign, and it's absolutely worth getting.

I can only hope Splatoon 3 takes a whole lot of inspiration from what they put together for the Octo Expansion.

Wow great catch. Just grabbed it. I was on the fence for it for $14. But at $10, definitely seems worth it. Especially after seeing all of the high praise for it in the comments right before yours.

Does this add multiplayer elements? Or is it just a single player/story expansion?
I'd like to know this as well.

In for $10 at GameStop after some ordering hiccups. I've been waiting for a deal on this.

Nice! Worked like a charm on GameStop. I enjoyed Splatoon 2 and didn't bother getting the DLC until I finish the included story mode. My friend saids he loves this DLC and it does sound fun. I think this is the first time this DLC went on sale, so definitely a no brainer at the GS price. Thanks OP!

MSRP is $20 so it is on sale across the board.

Interested to find out. I tried to get a PM at Best Buy, but they declined because the 30% off is a promo they don't match.
