While players will have to wait for 2022 till they can play the third installment of ‘Splattering People With Suspiciously-Coloured Liquids: The Game’, there are rumblings that Splatoon 3 news may be on the inky horizon!

Don’t worry Nintendo, I promise to keep my theories of implicitly psycho-sexual Freudian undertones in the Splatoon games to a minimum… If I can help it.

As for potential news, we have some finds from Twitter leaker and self-proclaimed Metroid fangirl, @SamusHunter2: ‘Splatoon 3 will get some updates later this year, I know there is at least one artwork scheduled to be released by the end of the year’.  Considering the last Nintendo Direct event was in September, it’s likely we’ll be seeing another update sometime late this December or early next year.

On September 23 2021, 2 new weapons for Splatoon 3 were confirmed by Samus Hunter, alongside information on the game’s multiplayer mode.

Weapons and Tools in Splatoon 3:

• The Splat-Roller will be getting a brand spanking-new sub-weapon mode, ala trick weapons in Bloodborne!
• The Crab Tank: Does what it says on the tin. Comes in rapid-fire and cannon variants.
• The Zipcaster Suit: Like the unholy lovechild of Spider-Man and zoomers, you too can fling your sticky substances around the place to swing around the arena! Tentacles are also involved.

Splatoon 3 Character Leaks: The story mode will be titled ‘Return of the Mammalians’… So like mammals? Was MatPat right!? That the Inkling folk are genetically more Squid than Kid? What in the name of Dagon-

Well, mammals aren’t entirely foreign to the Splatoon universe, Judd is an NPC catboy who mans the multiplayer modes, but I’ve got my eye on you Nintendo, you tricksie little Hobbitses, you… Judd also has a clone called Li’l Judd, so fingers crossed Splatoon 3 has Judd The Creator who soars to inkernet stardom after releasing his hit album ‘Chill Beats To Relax And Splatter Your Friends To’.

A Splatoon 3 trailer shows the Splatoon 2 antagonists, the Octarians, will be returning. They also seem to be rocking a new coat of fur, minus the boots and applebottom jeans of course. Click here for the Return of The Mammalians trailer.

Product Poems:

Nintendo Switch OLEDs in three humble bundles, I bravely default to monster hunt trundles. With rumbles of crumbles for apples-galore, the whispy will grumbles “buy me Dior”!

Mario 3D All Stars implies Luigi 2D No Stars.

There was once an AMIIBO called Jump-Man, a plumber who had a nice rump-tan. Bare for the sun on his day off just once, then a fireteam thumped on his pump, man.

The post Splatoon 3 December News Coming Soon! first appeared on Get2Gaming.

With over half the year gone already, we thought we would take a look at our favourite top 5 games so far! 

5. The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D

Having originally being released on the Nintendo 64 in 2000, Nintendo decided to release, one of the strangest Zelda titles to say the least, on Nintendo 3DS. The game takes Link out of the better known Hyrule and strands him in the strangle lands of Termina, a dark twisted universe. In this time-travel themed game, Link has three days to try and stop the moon from falling and, in that case, burning the world. Although Princess Zelda makes only a slight appearance during a flashback, this fantastic N64 game have been remastered to perfection for Nintendo 3DS users and comes in at number 5 in our top 5 games of 2015 so far.

4. Splatoon 

The Wii U haven’t had too many games to boast this year but we’ve given there hit Splatoon number four in our list. A light-hearted ‘Battlefield’, Splatoon redefines the genre of shooters taking away realistic violence and bringing some good ole’ innocent fun, whilst swapping blood and bullets for ink. The atmosphere of the game is uplifting, and although it is primarily a multiplayer title, the single-player mode is brilliant fun. Splatoon is packed with charm, plays like a dream whilst suitable for all ages, bringing a new experience to the shooting genre.

3. Lego Jurassic World

Lego games are always good fun and Lego Jurassic World is no different. We’ve enjoyed it so much its managed to take the third spot in our top 5 games so far. Along with the recent release of the hit new film in the iconic series, Jurassic World, this game also follows the epic storyline of the three previous Jurassic Park films, giving the user plenty to do. As well as playing through the films, you can spend hours going off story and exploring the well-designed open islands, finding all the little secrets and hidden areas on the way. The addition of being able to play as a dinosaur makes the experience even better. The producers have delivered on the nostalgia, along with adding a comical side to the story, and all in all creating a game that us lot down here have enjoyed very much!

2. Batman: Arkham Knight

Been out less than a week and it slots straight in to number two, one of the most highly anticipated games of the year has without doubt lived up to the hype. Rocksteady Studios along with Warner Bros. have produced a near-flawless game, which I have no doubt will be in a lot of people’s top ten list when they sit down at the end of the year. The previous Batman games were brilliant and they’ve only gone and done it again, with the addition of the Batmobile and a larger city to explore, the producers have created a stunning game in terms of both gameplay and the visuals. Flying around Gotham, coming up against the well-known super villains such as The Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn, whilst teaming up with Robin, Nightwing and Catwomen; giving the gamer a superb experience.

1. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

There was only one game that was going to take our top spot and it has to be The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Let alone 2015, its one of the best games we’ve seen and played in a long time. It defines the RPG genre and the developers down at CD Projeck Red have produced one of the most convincing fantasy open-worlds, full of quests and land to explore; be it run, sail or ride. CD Projeck Red are putting out a free DLC each week to give the gamer consistency something new to sink their teeth into, as well as two massive expansions expected later in the year. The storyline is amazing to say the least, put together with the gameplay system and ridiculous (in a good way) graphics, this is as good as it gets and I’m sure will be competing for top spot come the end of the year. Kudos CD Projeck Red, Kudos!

Tower Control Mode for Splatoon to be released 1st July, ahead of first Splatfest.

The new mode will be added to Ranked Battle alongside Splat Zones, it will launch 1st July, 7pm Pacific / 10pm Eastern in North America and will launch 2nd July, 3am UK / 4am CET in Europe.

Nintendo describes the game mode: “Hop aboard the tower placed in the middle of the map, and ride it to your opponent’s goal. Stay sharp – you’ll have to protect whoever’s riding the tower from enemy attacks! Once someone jumps onto the tower, it starts moving along a set path toward the other team’s goal. If the tower doesn’t arrive at either goal before time runs out, the team that’s moved it closest toward their opponent’s goal wins. Ride the tower all the way into the other team’s goal though, and you’ll get a decisive knockout victory.”

This messy mod sees Splatoon meeting Team Fortress 2

Announced by YouTuber DrLilRobot recently, this all new mod has just dropped the mechanics of Splatoon straight into Team Fortress 2. You’ll find that Demoman’s Sticky Jumper bombs are turned into much larger paint balls (which is still highly entertaining!). The cyclops-to-squid mechanics are also recognised in this mod. The swimming animations are pretty basic, but it does make up for the mod’s lack of eye-catching paint splats everywhere.

If you’re thinking that this sounds familiar, it’s because it wouldn’t be the first time that DrLilRobot (whom is also known as Dr. SquidBot on Steam) and company have created an eccentric Nintendo mod. In March last year, we saw another Team Fortress 2 mod, which was based on the Final Destination level of Super Mario Bros. A pistol is your only weapon of defense, as you try to tackle Master Hand and Crazy Hand.

All in all, it seems like a fun mod to give a go, and Splatoon itself has gone incredibly well since it’s release.

Splatoon flies beyond 1m sales worldwide!

Nintendo has announced today that it’s online, and very colourful, shooter game has now sold more than a million copies. This figure includes both physical and digital downloads from the Wii U eShop. 230k were sold in Europe, 368k in North America and 476k in Japan. Nintendo has also said that “thousands” of new players are still joining every day!

The developer has been constantly unlocking new modes, weapons, and maps to the game, and will continue to do so over the summer. This is all for keeping the game fresh.

An upcoming Splatfest tournament, for a limited time, will see the game dive into darkness and have the team-based paint-firing take place with the lights off. Definitely up for giving that one a go!

As if the Amiibo shortage wasn’t bad enough, it appears a whole truckload has now disappeared into the ether. Nintendo has confirmed that a truck carrying a shipment of Splatoon Special Edition with Splatoon Squid Inkling amiibo figurines has been stolen.

Nintendo UK have provided the following statement:

We can confirm that the lorry transporting the Splatoon stock from Nintendo’s European warehouse to GAME UK has been stolen. Included as part of this delivery was GAME’s allocation of the Splatoon + Squid Inkling amiibo and as a result we are unable to honour pre-orders for this item in GAME. We are working with GAME to contact those customers affected. Whilst these unfortunate circumstances were out of Nintendo UK and GAME’s control, we apologise for any inconvenience or disappointment that this has caused.

This is both bad news for GAME and bad news for customers hoping to get their hands on the special edition for release.

According to MCV UK, GAME are offering customers the chance to purchase the standard edition title in its place with a 10% discount, or a cancellation.

Well, it seems these limited edition Amiibos just got a little more limited…
