About Splatoon 3
In the upcoming Splatoon game, ink up the Splatlands!
Inklings and Octolings fight in the Splatlands, a sun-drenched desert populated by battle-hardened Inklings and Octolings. The adrenaline-fueled core of this dusty wasteland lies Splatsville, the city of disorder.
Turf War remains supreme even in this bleak landscape, as conflicts rage in new stages scattered across the surrounding wilderness. New techniques and a new bow-shaped weapon to fling ink enable these warriors evade assaults and cover more territory.
