Nintendo just let the cat out of the bag—Splatoon 3 fans, buckle up. Apparently, a magic wand waves later this week, and bam—a free update for both the old trusty Nintendo Switch and the shiny new Nintendo Switch 2 hits us. Pretty cool, right?
So, mark your calendars for Thursday, June 12th. They’re rolling out version 10.0.0, whatever that means. All I know is, it’s bringing in this Splatlands collection thing. Imagine strutting around with 30 new weapon kits from some names like Barazushi and Emberz. No clue how they come up with these names, but they sound fancy—and they’ve got new sub and special weapons too. Maybe I’m overthinking this, but it feels like opening a mystery box. You think?
Here’s a blast from the past for the OG fans—the Urchin Underpass is back! Remember the good old Wii U days with the first Splatoon? Coming back feels like digging out a sweater you thought you lost, doesn’t it?
Fresh news for the stats buffs, too: weapon Freshness caps are climbing up, along with new badges. You’ll also see something called Series Weapon Power for Anarchy Battle (Series). Tracks your stats based on winning and losing, matching you with equally skilled battlers. It’s like a game of chess but with ink and tentacles. Trying out new gear without getting clobbered? Yes, please.
And hey, if you’re lucky enough to be tinkering with a Switch 2, expect graphics that might just blow your mind. Those colorful spots in Splatsville will probably look like a bazillion bucks. And while we’re at it, let’s settle the nerves—both versions of Switch play nice together. Phew!
Okay, if you’ve been living under a rock, Splatoon 3’s right there for the grabbing, both on physical shelves and the Nintendo eShop. Worldwide, folks. Don’t say I didn’t tell you.
Alright, I gotta dash. But hey, keep splatting!
