Someone on another message board I think figured it out- Player 4's weapon...
GRENADE LAUNCHER.

Yep, that's what I thought when I seen that, grenade launcher. My theory on how it works is that it shoots blobs of ink that splatter a wide area and can OSOK enemies, but its fire rate is abysmal. I'm talking like 3-4 seconds to fire another shot. That would balance it out nicely.

Sounds about right to me!

Also... do the Inklings have fangs? It looks like that in the picture.

It could be that some Inklings forgot to ask mama squid and daddy squid for braces when they were little kids.

Which means they got them when they were older. I'm fairly confident that those are braces.

It looks more like she's wearing a mouthguard than she having fangs. Not sure why she would wear one, though.

Because they're sporty. That's about all the reason needed, really.
The reason I claim braces, though, is that if you look to the edges of her mouth, you can see very very faint protrusions on either side, and the color is ever so slightly off, like a ring of it surrounds her mouth. This makes me think she's sporting retainer braces. (Or at least a stylized version of such.)

If that's the case, that's a neat customization option.

So they really have fangs. I think.

Yup. Seems like once again I was overthinking shit, and turns out they just have a really funky set of chompers. Apologies.

Interesting. I think that's referencing squid mouths. They have beaks and that's the best they can do to reference that without it looking bizarre. Pretty cool.. Guess that Inkling anatomy propaganda depicting them to having sharp teeth wasn't lying. EDIT: Yep, through Google translate, they're definitely referencing squids beak-like mouths. Tweet

Indeed.
She would look hideous with an actual "beak".

Having a beak is actually... not cute at all.

I am afraid I disagree.
