Say, I can't help but wonder if Splatoon 3's gonna have its own BR mode or something. I mean, the way they drop into the arena in that Turf War looks an awful lot like how you'd do it in a battle royale...or maybe it's just to keep up with the post-apocalyptic aesthetic of it all.

Its been obvious for a while now, but I love when Splatoon is treated like one of Nintendo's biggest draws. I remember being hooked on the original Wii U testfire (splatatatata-splatoon!) and to see it become one of the big boys warms my heart.

Fan art already? That was fast. (Also it was a train not a bus.)

Since Inkling Girl's hair here is Yellow; I'd say Inkling Boy's hair will be Purple.

One thing I hope doesn't happen is for Octoling to be a Mii Costume because of Pyra and Mythra releasing this March.

As expected, this thread is basically a Splatoon 3 hype thread right now. I'm as hyped as you all are.

Just be ready to accept that the next year will probably be spent analysing this one trailer as we might not get more news for a long time.

Additionally, I now believe the infamous 'SAVE OUR SALMONS' New Year's 2020 official artwork was, in fact, teasing a Splatoon 3 reveal later that year, but it got delayed due to COVID-19.

Calling it now, the storyline will be Marina working with Mr. Grizz to harvest the Salmonids, maybe Marina’s being brainwashed by Mr. Grizz and we gotta save her and the Salmonids

Remembered to check SquidBoards after the announcement and... not even a new mainline game can get that site active again. It's kinda sad when you look at it.

Anyone else wondering what it would have been like if order won?
Probably something cyberpunk-esque, with a bunch of metal and neon lights everywhere. If the Splatoon 3 we got is putting its stages in "nature," I think an Order version would emphasize cities, high-tech facilities, and industrial areas.
...more than Splatoon 1 and 2 already did, that is.

Anyone else getting more hyped the more they think about it?
Yeah. The reveal of Splatoon 3 took me totally off guard last night, but now that I've digested it, I really can't wait.

Also, I'm already digging the new look of the "default/postergirl" Inkling:
