SRL meteorologist here to officially welcome you to Chill Season 2022! It starts on Thursday 12/1, and it's jam-packed with new weapons, stages, and events. Start warming up your splat trigger now. Brrr! Winner - Best Multiplayer - The Game Awards 2022. Ink, swim, and splat in the freshest shooter around. Enter 4-on-4* ink-slinging battles in this colorful action shooter packed with style and attitude. As a squid-like Inkling, quickly cover your surroundings (and opponents) in ink with wild weaponry and swim through your own color to sneak and splat. Dive into the fresh fun with family and friends and make waves as a team. Get splatted by an opponent? No sweat! The goal in Turf War is to cover the most ground, so respawn and jump back into the inky action. Keep it current with rotating items, seasonal catalogs, and special events. Variety is the spice of an Inkling’s life, so check out shops daily for a changing array of gear that is as fashionable as it is functional. Timed events like Splatfests bring different types of chaotic competition and content updates add even more weapons and stages. Earn points to get in-game items from season-specific catalogs to dress up your own personal locker and show your style. Use inky new abilities and weapons to compete, cooperate, or clear up the mystery of the Fuzzy Ooze. Dynamic new moves like the Squid Surge and Squid Roll will help you and your fellow Inklings cover more ground and avoid enemy ink. Take aim with the bow-like Stringer and get slash happy with sword-like Splatanas—these new weapon types join an arsenal of fresh special weapons and sub weapons, too. Work together to collect Golden Eggs and fend off brand-new swarms of invading Salmonids in the co-op Salmon Run mode. Tackle a solo adventure alongside a Smallfry companion to solve the mystery of the Fuzzy Ooze in the offline story mode. In addition to new weapons and maneuvers, the Splatoon 3 game features brand-new battle stages like the desolate Scorch Gorge and the urban Eeltail Alley. When you aren’t splatting or shopping, outwit opponents in the Splatlands’ one-and-only card game, Tableturf Battles. With customizable nameplates called Splashtags, lockers to deck out, and a variety of victory emotes, Splatoon 3 has even more ways to show your individuality. Oh, you can also choose your eyebrows! *Additional games, systems and/or Nintendo Switch Online membership required for multiplayer mode.
