New Maps, New Weapons, And Pool System Detailed For Splatoon 3 Fresh Season Update
Nintendo has shared more details about some upcoming updates for Splatoon 3.
This latest batch of info includes details about two new maps that will be added via the update (Um’ami Ruins, Manta Maria), some new weapons, as well as a new feature called Pools, which are essentially private multiplayer rooms which can only be entered via a pass code.
Check it all out below:
Let's keep it rolling with a video of the L-3 Nozzlenose D, a new design of the L-3 Nozzlenose. It comes with Burst Bombs to help weaken foes before hitting them with a burst of ink from the 'nose. And the Ultra Stamp special stamps HARD, no matter where enemies try to hide. pic.twitter.com/EARLlN0eAI

Switching gears…we've discovered a new feature that helps players connect. It's called a Pool, and anyone can join one by inputting a unique set of letters or characters. You can send and receive notifications with others in your Pool, and even invite them to join a battle! pic.twitter.com/OQbU56Mbwr

Last post for the day! Our Media Analysis dept. reports that Deep Cut will be expanding the Anarchy Splatcast with special updates straight from the front lines of Splatfests. Win a 10x Battle, and you could be on the news! pic.twitter.com/af4oCSo5ir

Ahoy! SRL reporting from aboard the Manta Maria, a returning battle stage that's both seaworthy and worth seeing! The boat's mast, nets, and lifeboats provide deep strategic opportunities, but remember—this is a boat, and you still can't swim. pic.twitter.com/CBpT0JzZm4

And here we have the Custom Jet Squelcher, which is a Jet Squelcher with a special, limited-edition nozzle color. Slow down your enemies with the Poison Mist sub, and then let 'em have it from long range with your main. And to REALLY bog 'em down, unleash the Ink Storm special! pic.twitter.com/U87CHKHRh4
