Today we got the first Nintendo Direct since 2019. Nintendo news has been a bit lacking throughout 2020 for obvious reasons. But Nintendo are back with their latest Direct, showing off plenty of news games that are coming over the course of 2021.

Splatoon 3 Coming To Nintendo Switch

To conclude the first Nintendo Direct of 2021, it was revealed that Splatoon 3 will be coming to the Nintendo Switch.

“In the wake of chaos, enter the sun scorched Splatlands and the new city, Splatsville, inhabited by battle-hardened Inklings & Octolings. New weapons, moves, and more await”

About Splatoon

If you’re new to the Splatoon series, here is some more information about Splatoon 2, which you can play now to tide you over until Splatoon 3 is released next year.

The squid kids called Inklings are back to splat more ink and claim more turf in this colorful and chaotic 4-on-4 action shooter. For the first time, take Turf War battles on-the-go with the Nintendo Switch™ system, and use any of the console’s portable play styles for intense local multiplayer* action. Even team up for new 4-player co-op fun in Salmon Run!

Expect a fresh wave of fashion, not to mention new weapons and gear. Dual wield the new Splat Dualies or stick to mainstays like chargers and rollers, which have been remixed with new strategic possibilities. As always, Turf War is the favored sport among Inklings, but they also dig ranked battles, taking down Octarians in a robust single-player campaign, and battling enemy Salmonids in one dangerous part-time job! No matter which way you play, splat at home or on-the-go with Nintendo Switch. Staying fresh never felt so good.
