Splatoon 3 is far from being just another game in Nintendo’s series, but rather a bright and fast-paced world where turf wars are not only about players fighting but also about expressing one’s creative side. The colorful fight in Splatoon 3 may well be your next fashion statement, and you are no longer just fighting for glory but also for style. In fact, each match has turned into a competition of style in this dazzling shooter.
Indeed, Splatoon has always been a game that gave its players the freedom to show their personality, and now in the third game, the feature has been enhanced. The vast choice of weapons, gears, and costumes allows players not only to change their playing style but also to change their appearance on the battleground. However, it doesn’t end here with Nintendo – they have extended the feeling of expression beyond the game and created new ways for fans to bring their Splatoon look into the outside world.
One such highlight for fans and collectors of in-game swagger is the Splatoon series amiibo support. With a tap of one of these characters on the Nintendo Switch, users can invite a character into their game. But it’s more than a mere vanity perk—amiibo unlock special gear, allow you to share fun in-game snaps with your amiibo partner, and even enable you to save your favorite gear loadouts and settings directly to the figure. It’s a smart marriage of physical and digital that enables your Splatoon persona to come with you.
Nintendo has also introduced another level of customisation with unique Splatoon 3 icon pieces, which are offered for a limited period through the My Nintendo Rewards scheme. With Platinum Points, users can exchange vibrant icon components—such as backgrounds, character portraits, and frames—to create a user icon that is as vibrant and dynamic as the game itself. The styles are updated every week, so there’s always something fresh for fans to pick up and display. It’s a little but thoughtful way for players to differentiate themselves in the Nintendo Switch Online community.
To get at all of these features, you’ll require a Nintendo Account and an active Nintendo Switch Online subscription. Whether you’re diving into multiplayer turf battles, experiencing online-only content, or exploring the Missions & Rewards area, being signed up for Nintendo’s online service is the key to unlocking the complete Splatoon 3 experience.
Whether you’re racking up wins, customizing your avatar, or collecting limited-edition icons, the game offers endless ways to express yourself—and make a splash while doing it.
