Reminder: Splatoon 3’s First Splatfest starts today
Splatoon 3’s Splatfest World Premiere is the venue Splatoon 3First Splatfest and event starts today in all regions! Cleverly played on World Rock Paper Scissors Day, you’ll be able to try out new Splatfests, including the all-new Tricolor Cloverfield War, in online matches throughout the day.
Splatfest is split into two halves – the first six hours will be dedicated to Splatfest Battles, where it’s 1 v-1 paint splatter battles along the way. Then, for the second six hours, you’ll engage in some 4v-2-v-2 battles with a messy three-team battle. To participate in Splatfest, you’ll need to download the Splatfest World Premiere demo and swear allegiance to one of the three teams (tell us what you’ll do! our poll!).
When you start the demo, you may notice that you are given a code on the screen (or emailed). This code gives you a free seven-day trial of Nintendo Switch Online (if you haven’t signed up for the service), so make sure if you redeem the code to be able to join the mess!
