The Splatoon™ 3 game comes out on Sept. 9, so it’s time to dive into an ocean of new info (or, at least, a decent-sized bay/lagoon).
Let’s first start with Nintendo Treehouse: Live | August 2022 and then swim on over to Splatoon 3: Splatfest World Premiere demo inkfo, uh, info.
Nintendo Treehouse: Live | August 2022
Contrary to popular belief, the Nintendo Treehouse is NOT a wooden treehouse where Donkey Kong hides his banana stash. Instead, it’s a collection of friendly Nintendo of America folks who have the inside scoop about upcoming games!
Please watch the video for a 20,000 league deep dive into Splatoon 3, including looks at the story mode, weapons, and two of the upcoming stages that will be featured in the Splatoon 3: Splatfest World Premiere demo (more on that later).
Nintendo Treehouse: Live | August 2022 also featured an upcoming life-simulation JRPG from Square-Enix called HARVESTELLA. You can also catch that specific segment in a separate article!
Splatoon 3: Splatfest World Premiere demo event
Want to get a taste of Splatoon 3 mayhem before the game comes out? Starting today, Nintendo Switch Online members can access the Splatoon 3: Splatfest World Premiere demo. It’s the perfect place for newcomers because you can also play the game’s tutorial and take a scenic stroll through Splatsville.
Of course, the main event will take place on Saturday, Aug. 27 from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. PT. Yep, that’s when the Splatfest is!
Well that’s cool…what the heck is a Splatfest?
Oh right—we should probably explain that. A Splatfest is a big deal for Inklings and Octolings around the world. Basically, you’ll join one of three causes and try to win in-game battles to champion your ideals. Splatoon and Splatoon™ 2 players are probably used to joining one of two sides, but yeah…Splatoon 3 has THREE sides. Talk about your triple threat!
After you choose your destiny, you’ll participate in Splatfest Battles. The goal of a match is to ink as much of the stage as you can. The more matches your side wins, the closer you’ll be to a resounding victory.
The burning theme of this Splatfest is one of the oldest questions in human history*. Which is the best: Rock, Paper, or Scissors?
Yes, we only ask the tough questions here! Do you rock out with rocks? Are you pals with paper? Or do you see yourself as a super scissor supporter? Let your voice be heard in Splatfest form!
So how does it work with three teams?
Yeah, let’s explain that one. This event is actually split into two distinct parts:
-
From 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. PT, teams will battle each other one team at a time (just like past games in the series).
-
From 3:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. PT, Tricolor Turf War battles become available, which are 4v2v2. Yup, that means that three teams will be battling at once!
Sounds good, but what if I’m not a Nintendo Switch Online member?
Don’t worry, we got you covered! Everyone who grabs the demo will also receive a code redeemable for a 7-day free trial membership** (the code*** will be sent to the email address linked to your Nintendo Account).
Anything else?
Nah, that’s about it. If you want to download the Splatoon 3: Splatfest World Premiere demo and get started with the tutorial, please use the link below. Just don’t miss the boat when it comes to the Splatfest itself—we’ll see you on Aug. 27 between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. PT.
Good luck out there!
*OK, not really. But hey, it’s at least in the top 60% of oldest questions! Maybe!
