Splatfest World Premier Demo Coming Aug 27/28

A special demo for Splatoon 3 is just weeks away. The Splatoon 3 Spatfest World Premiere is set to kick off on Sunday, August 28 in Japan from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. The theme this time around is based around “Rock, Paper, Scissors.” A new “Tricolor Turf War,” which features the tried and true Turf War formula of four-on-four action with a bit of a twist. The first half of the battle will feature a standard match while the second will have three teams competing. The lead team will retain their four players and be set in the middle of the stage in an attempt to defend against two teams of two from the opposing teams. 

The free Splatfest app can be pre-ordered now and will be distributed on August 18 and will become playable on August 25. Before the event starts, players will be able to try out a tutorial as well as check out Splatsville and decide which team to support.
