Splatoon 3 ups the ante with new levels, battle modes and even a card game

Ahead of its launch next month, Nintendo has shown off even more details about Splatoon 3 in a brand-new Direct showcasing the game’s battle stages, maneuvers, weapons and more.Although the original Splatoon launched on the Wii U, the game quickly became a fan favorite despite the console’s limitations. With the launch of the Switch and the release of Splatoon 2 in 2017, Nintendo built upon the success of the first game with the addition of new maps, weapons, abilities and Salmon Run. Now Nintendo appears to be following a similar formula for Splatoon 3 by including all of Splatoon 2’s weapons, as well as its most popular stages.
