There’s a lot of anticipation building up and if you want to get your hands on a copy, it’s important to know when the game is expected to be released. That’s why we’ve compiled this list of all the information you need to know.
Release date
The Splatoon 3 release date is set for September 9th. Nintendo has a new multiplayer shooter coming to the Switch, and it looks great! There are some exciting new features, too.
First, it’s a 4-player co-op game. Second, it’s a competitive ranked mode. Third, it’s an interesting campaign. Finally, it will feature loads of new weapons and shops. You can check out the latest trailer below.
This is a very welcome development. Not only does the release date give gamers an idea of when they can expect the game to come out, it’s also a sign of continued development. It was originally scheduled to come out in summer of 2022, but the full release date was changed to September 9th.
In addition to the release date, there are plenty of other things fans can look forward to in Splatoon 3. The game will have a new region, a new story mode, a custom console, and more. Plus, there’s a 4v4 multiplayer mode called Turf War.
For those who want to get a taste of the game before it comes out, Nintendo is offering a demo. Players will be able to customize their Inkling and explore a hub area. At the end of the demo, you will be able to fight against other players and claim turf in the Splatsville area.
If you want to play Splatoon 3, you can pre-order it from the Nintendo Store. Those who aren’t ready to make a purchase yet can always pirate the game for free. As a bonus, Splatoon 2’s Octo Expansion will be free for those who subscribe to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack.
Single-player campaign
Splatoon 3 is the third title in the Splatoon franchise. It’s a multiplayer-focused game that also features a single player campaign. While it’s unlikely you’ll get to play alone, you should expect some good post-game content, as well as a variety of modes and new abilities. The game has been designed to offer a unique experience and will be a welcome addition to fans of the series.
Splatoon 3’s single-player campaign is a big improvement over previous entries. It’s got more challenges, a lot more stages and a much bigger world to explore. As an added bonus, players will have access to an assortment of new areas and enemies.
The story mode is the best of any single-player campaign in the “Splatoon” series. Players are led by Captain Cuttlefish, and must explore a massive open world to uncover the secret of the Splatlands. There are a variety of missions and levels to complete, which vary in difficulty and time commitment. Some levels require ziplining across floating towers or jumping through ink waves, while others will require you to fight enemy waves.
The campaign also includes a number of collectibles. These include sunken scrolls and Alterna logs, as well as collectible cards. You can find them in the game’s hub, but you can also earn them by levelling up in multiplayer.
The single-player campaign is a bit short, but it’s a fun way to learn new weapons and techniques. The levels aren’t very difficult, but they do offer a good challenge.
The single-player mode isn’t as impressive as the Octo Expansion, but it’s a good introduction. Inkling, the main character, would have enemies and plenty of parts to scavenge to upgrade his weapon.
Multiplayer modes
Splatoon 3 is the latest in the series from Nintendo. Featuring new weapon classes and gadgets, Splatoon 3 offers a colorful and innovative multiplayer experience.
As with the previous entries in the franchise, Splatoon 3 features single player and online multiplayer modes. The single player campaign is centered around the lore of the Splatlands. A new story mode called “Return of the Mammalians” will also be included in Splatoon 3.
Online multiplayer in Splatoon 3 takes place in four modes: Anarchy Battles, Turf War, Salmon Run – the Next Wave, and X Battle. Players can choose their battle arena, and then select a team of two or four players.
In the traditional Splatoon mode, teams of two battle for a spot on the map. When time runs out, the team with the most ink on the ground wins.
In the new game modes, players must complete tasks and collect the Golden Eggs to win. They will also face Salmonids in Salmon Run.
Test Range is a special area in which players can test their bomb-throwing skills. It’s also a great way to discover new hiding spots. This area is a lot like Tower Control in Splatoon 2.
Turf War is a classic multiplayer game that will be returning in Splatoon 3. Basically, you are two teams of four players trying to cover the most turf. You can also play in Splatfests.
Anarchy Battles is a competitive aspect of Splatoon 3. Only after reaching level 10 can you unlock this game mode. Though still competing against other players, Anarchy Battles focus on precise gameplay and team coordination.
While Splatoon 2 was primarily an online game, there were some offline modes. Splatoon 3 takes a different approach by allowing players to ink more places.
Amiibo
Amiibo are toy-to-life figurines produced by Nintendo. They are compatible with many Nintendo games, including Splatoon. These figurines can write to an NFC tag, and are used to get items in the game. In the Splatoon franchise, amiibo are also used to get special gear.
If you want to use an amiibo in Splatoon 3, you need to register your character first. Then, you can scan the amiibo to get bonuses and other rewards. You can even save pictures of your characters with the amiibo.
Splatoon is known for its distinct aesthetic. It also provides unique ways to play. Several new features are in Splatoon 3. Some of them include the use of Amiibo, which you can use with the NFC port on the Pro Controller. Using amiibo in Splatoon will unlock additional gear and stat-enhancing gear.
Splatoon 3 will support all previous Splatoon amiibo, as well as all of the amiibo released with the original Splatoon. Specifically, you can use the Inkling Boy and Girl amiibo, as well as the Octoling Girl amiibo.
During a game, you can scan the amiibo on your Joy-Con controller. Your amiibo will then appear inside the amiibo box. This box is located at the back of the Splatsville square. When your amiibo is scanned, you will receive a special greeting.
If you are having trouble scanning your amiibo, you can restart your device or rescan. Also, you should check your amiibo collection. Several new items are in Splatoon 3. Including the Inkling Boy amiibo, which will unlock an outfit resembling armor.
As the series goes on, it is likely that more Splatoon amiibo will be released. However, some are currently unavailable.
Pre-ordering
The latest installment in the Splatoon series is coming to Nintendo Switch later this year. With a new storyline and multiplayer modes, gamers will have plenty to look forward to. It’s also free to play, and will be available for both online and offline use.
Pre-ordering the game will earn you double the amount of Gold Coins. These can be used toward the purchase of future digital DLC. In addition, you will also receive an exclusive sticker set.
You can pre-order the game from various retailers. Some of these include Best Buy, GameStop, Walmart, and Target. However, there are many other options as well, including Amazon.
Walmart is one of the few retailers that offers a free squid plush as part of their Splatoon 3 pre-order bonus. This plush is available in four different colors. But, this gift is only given away with a pre-order, and will not be available after the release date.
Best Buy has a similar keychain gift with their Splatoon 3 pre-order. This one features the Inkling with the Tri-Stringer. Although, this keychain is limited to a small number of pre-orders, and will only ship after the game is released.
For UK gamers, the My Nintendo Store offers a gym bag and a squid pin for pre-ordering. They are currently sold out, however, and will only be restocked once the Calloon & Marie 2-Pack launches.
For US gamers, GameStop offers a sticker set and Splatoon 3 pre-order. Unlike other retailers, the sticker set is available only for pre-orders, and cannot be purchased separately. However, this set includes six different designs, and you may want to get it anyway.
While there is no way to guarantee a certain retailer will send you something with your pre-order, you can always check their Twitter account for updates. Chances are, they’ll have a giveaway soon.
