Octolings are the {{iw|inkipedia|Octarian}} equivalent to [[Inkling]]s.

Some female Octolings serve the Octarian army as elite soldiers, who can be encountered as enemies in single-player modes of the ''Splatoon'' series.

The ''{{iw|inkipedia|Octo Expansion}}'' DLC of ''{{iw|inkipedia|Splatoon 2}}'' introduces playable Octolings who look significantly different from the Octarian soldier ones and could be unlocked for multiplayer upon beating the DLC. However, despite the player controlling an Octoling in the DLC, Octarian soldier Octolings still appear as enemies, albeit [[inkipedia:Sanitized Octarian|"sanitized"]], a form of brainwashing used by the {{iw|inkipedia|Kamabo Corporation}}. Octolings were also temporarily playable in multiplayer without the DLC for players who chose Team Octopus in the [[inkipedia:Squid vs. Octopus (2018)|Squid vs. Octopus Splatfest]]. They return in ''{{iw|inkipedia|Splatoon 3}}'', where they can be played from the start.

Though this cannot happen in-game, lore-wise [https://www.famitsu.com/news/201807/21160955.html a ''Splatoon 2'' Anniversary Famitsu interview] reveals that only several female playable Octolings can become the aforementioned elite Octarian soldiers.
