Splatoon 3 (Nintendo Switch)

The splatoon series has been a favourite of mine since 2015 when the first game released on Wii U, and Im shocked we're here at the third game already! If you'd played splatoon 2 and got a little bored after a while, this might be what you need to get a refreshing experience! The gameplay is largely the same, but every rough edge in the previous games has largely been polished off! The gameplay feels more responsive, the weapon balance is alot more fair, and the story mode is incredibly fun! The singleplayer can be a bit hit or miss for some, as its story itself is alot more "style over substance" than perhaps the Octo Expansion DLC in Splatoon 2, but the levels themselves are fun and creative in the ways they use the games mechanics! Anyone whos been a fan of the series for a while will love the lore revealed in the Alterna Logs, and if you just want to feel cool the ending will do that for you. The only other problem is that you may disconnect from games quite frequently depending on your connection. My internet seems fine, but every so often I may see a player drop out of the match or I might get stuck in matchmaking for too long, its not a dealbreaker for me, but some people have had a bit of a rough time. I bought the game again for my younger brother, because he's been enjoying playing on my copy, but because theres no single screen multiplayer he needs another copy to be able to play together with him. I wont be able to give it to him until christmas, but playing this game with friends and family is always a blast, and theres a wonderful community online!

As someone who loved the Splatoon 2 so much that they bought a wii u to experience the 1st game, I can confirm that this is the best game in every degree possible, the graphics are way better (even though on the same console as 2) than the last 2 games. The story mode is so much better than the last 2, and the multiplayer is way better with more balanced weapons, special weapons, and bombs! And if your someone who played the past games you will know you can’t skip the news but now you can with the text and stages appearing in the top left corner! If your someone thinking of buying Splatoon 3, but don’t know if you should as you already have one of the first 2 or someone who’s thinking of getting their first Splatoon, I say strongly do! With loads more customisation and way better gameplay, this game is a great game to buy that will bring you hours of fun!

It's splatoon, it's good. I enjoy it. Competitive is difficult but still fun. Obv you need Nintendo Switch Online for multiplayer

Excellent

I have been a fan of original Splatoon from the Wii U days (that I think was criminally under-rated). It was such a great game you wonder why nobody else came up with such a concept before. I did not think Splatoon 2 was a lot different, like MK8 Nintendo could have just ported Splatoon 1 to the Switch and still be a success, but the single-player campaign and DLC did bring decent improvement to make it worth it. In any case, if you wanted to play on Switch there was no other choice anyway - so 5+ stars! Splatoon 3 again does not seem me to bring enough freshness and I do hate that we're splitting the player base. I see it as a slightly different play mode which could have been as an option. Bringing the old maps from the original (like MK8) to play on is not bad as they were (are?) still good but seems a bit cheap. If anything I personally wanted even more flexibility, e.g. 1 vs 1, duo vs duo, trio vs trio, etc. or even "free for all" mode with each player for themselves - after all there are enough colours and space on most maps. Maybe restrict weapons in some modes, e.g. only "rollers", only "brushes" or maybe "random weapon" to make it more fun? Overall I almost think this could be a (bigger) DLC for Splatoon 2 but I can see how that would not bring the same amount of sales as a new game. If you're a fan of Splatoon then I guess you will get it - but may find yourself playing 2 more than 3...

Brilliant game daughter loves playing this

Lots of hype about this, but I wasn't sure going in as I haven't played 1 or 2. I got "splatted" quite a bit when I first started, but soon enough you learn what to do and not to do and it becomes really quite enjoyable and addictive. The main online matches are 3 minutes of 4 v 4 players. You'll keep saying to yourself "One more" after every game. Other than that, there's plenty of content for a change of pace. From a Tetris style turn based game, to customising your virtual locker with gear and accessories you've unlocked. Lots of fun, highly recommend it.

Good game

What I like about the game is how it makes it fun to colour in a map with paint and also kill enemies with paint. It is also very different to Call of Duty or similar games and that is refreshing.
