Sommaire
Histoire
Chromapolis a été créée longtemps après que la Terre a été submergée par la hausse du niveau de la mer et que ses habitants fonciers ont été anéantis. Octopi and squids eventually evolved and began fighting over habitable land in the Great Turf War, inspiring the Turf War sport and Octarian rebellion.

La Place de Chromapolis est le hub de Splatoon . À partir de là, les joueurs peuvent accéder à différents types de modes et de magasin ainsi que d'interagir avec d'autres joueurs Inklings qu'ils ont combattu récemment. C'est le cœur de Chromapolis.
Apparences
La place est circulaire avec un grand trottoir et différents magasins sur le côté. À l'arrière se la Tour de Chromapolis dans laquelle les joueurs peuvent entrer pour accéder aux Matchs Classiques et aux Matchs Pro.
À gauche de l'entrée principale se trouvent les Galerie Lacrevette, un centre commercial dans lequel le joueur peut acheter de l'équipement. Les boutiques de ce centre commercial sont Ammo Knights, le magasin d'armes, Kamatête, la boutique d'accesoirs, Jelly Fresh, la boutique de vêtements, et Shrimp Kicks, le magasin de chaussures. Each shop has a charismatic Shop Keeper, and each one represents a different type of marine life. Ils sont Cartouche, Anne (et Mone), G.Latineux et Omar. There is also a manhole in the far right corner where Octo Valley is accessed. Other areas include one of the alleyways where Spyke can be found, the Arcade Machine across from the Booyah Base, and the amiibo machine which can be found towards the back.
On the second floor is the Battle Dojo and the Inkopolis News Studio.
After battling with other players online, their Inklings will temporarily appear in the player's plaza. Their name, level, rank, gear, and Miiverse post (if present) can all be seen by examining them with 28px. From there the player can also order their gear from Spyke.
Inkopolis Plaza features two large statues; being a Tanuki and a Fox. The Fox is on top of Booyah Base whereas the Tanuki is on top of the studio for the Squid Sisters. The animals depicted on these statues were the two sides of the second Japanese Splatfest.

- The layout and design of Inkopolis is based on the city of Shibuya in Tokyo, Japan.
- A plane will occasionally fly over Inkopolis Plaza suggesting it may be located near an airport.

- The colors of the chairs, Callie and Marie sit on in the studio reflect the ink colors of the player's last match, or the colors of the current Splatfest. The main color is the opponents' color, with arrows in the player's team color. The train that goes around Inkopolis will have a paint job that matches the neutral color value of the player's previous match. These include the colors of barriers, wall tops and other objects.
