Today’s Nintendo Direct presentation concluded with a first look at Splatoon 3 for Nintendo Switch! Slated to release in 2022, the game’s debut trailer features a desert location, known as the Splatlands. There, the player’s Inkling can be customized before hopping on a train to a new city named Splatsville. The city looks quite a bit bigger than Inkopolis, and significantly busier. From there, Nintendo also showcased a new arena, and what appears to be some new weapons that will appear in the sequel! Unfortunately, further details for Splatoon 3 have not been revealed, and fans will likely have to wait a bit longer to find out more.

#Splatoon3 arrives on #NintendoSwitch in 2022! 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, so be sure to keep an eye out for updates in the future. pic.twitter.com/Q0g6qbZBs5
