More Seasons Greetings…
After the Splatoon 3 development already took to Twitter this month to wish Inklings and Octolings Happy Holidays, now the Animal Crossing is getting in with the action and Wario refuses to be outdone as well. So, join us as we celebrate the holidays by helping Nintendo spread their Holiday cheer:
“Wishing all the Inklings and Octolings out there happy holidays from the #Splatoon3 team!”
“We hope you end the year on a magical note! Happy holidays from the #AnimalCrossing: New Horizons team!”
“WAH WAH WAH! Wario is coming to town! 🎁 #WarioWareGetItTogether”

About Splatoon 3:
Enter the Splatlands, a sun-scorched desert inhabited by battle-hardened Inklings and Octolings. Splatsville, the city of chaos, is the adrenaline-fueled heart of this dusty wasteland.
Even in this desolate environment, Turf War* reigns supreme and battles rage in new stages located in the surrounding wilds. Dynamic new moves help these fighters dodge attacks and cover more ground, along with a new bow-shaped weapon to sling ink.
Join Agent 3 in a fight against the evil Octarian army in story mode. Discover the secrets of Alterna, the Fuzzy Ooze, and how they connect to the mode’s theme, “Return of the Mammalians.”
Stay tuned for more information to be revealed, as the Splatoon 3 game is scheduled to release for the Nintendo Switch™ system in 2022.
