News

Thanks to everyone who participated in the "Splatoon x Pokémon Collaboration Fest" over the weekend! The results were very close, except for the percentage of votes cast, which was very close in the "Holagai", "Open", and "Challenge" competitions. Just as we were thinking that the festival was over and things could be settled, new information about the new season of Splatoon 3 was announced, so here it is! New items, stages, and X-matches will finally be unleashed, and there is a lot of information for both light and heavy gamers.

New Season "2022 Winter Chill Season" Begins!

Splatoon 3 will distribute a new catalog every three months for the first two years after its release. New items will be added to the catalog at the same time as the catalog is distributed. The new season "2022 Winter Chill Season" will start on December 1, 2022 (Thursday ), three months after the launch! A video of the new season has also been released for your viewing pleasure!

New stages and the Flounder Hill Complex will make a return!

In the video, a stage reminiscent of the Flounder Hill Complex that appeared in Splatoon on Wii U is shown. As if to confirm the reappearance of the Flounder Hill Complex, the ink on the image is also painted in the ink colors of the first Splatoon, orange and blue. The map had a lot of elevation differences at the time, and it will be interesting to see if it has been remade in this game.

In addition, in the video, we can see not only a stage like the Flounder Hill complex, but also a new stage that looks like a hot spring resort. The stage consists of a gradual descent toward the center of the stage and an upward slope as you move toward the outer perimeter of the stage.

New Shooter, Roller, and Charger Blades

As for the new buki, three types of buki were seen in the video: shooter, roller, and charger. The new shooter type of buki has a faster walking fire rate and appears to have more range than the splat shooter.

The new roller type of buki has a wider paint coverage when painting the ground, and the vertical swing does not seem to be slow at all. It seems to be able to aim for kills with a vertical swing.

The new Charger seems to be able to release up to 5 shots of ink in its charged state after one charge. In the video, the user was able to hit it with two shots to knock it down, so we are curious about the performance of the buki, including its range.

Shasuke are coming to town! Information on the "Big Run"!
