Splatoon 3 Multiplayer Review

Splatoon 3's Multiplayer reviewed by Brendan Graeber on Nintendo Switch.

Building from the solid foundations of its predecessors, the deluge of impressive quality of life changes and exciting improvements Splatoon 3 brings make it hard to imagine the ink-based shooter series as it was before this. More than just a simple upgrade, its array of new features make it just as enticing for competitive players as it is approachable for newcomers. And while there aren’t any huge additions that shake things up the way Salmon Run’s inclusion did for Splatoon 2, Splatoon 3’s new maps, weapons, and PvE bosses have still managed to make its already excellent multiplayer clashes even better.

Splatoon 3 multiplayer is the best and unique I've ever played in the franchise so far that improves from previous games!

also why can u change gear between matches in turf, but not in anarchy?

[Nikinjapan]

This game has the most unstable multiplayer I've ever experienced, when it works it's excellent but expect more than 50% of attempts to play resulting in connection errors

[lijobeats]

How about the Multiplayer connection ?
In Splatoon 2 1 player was the host of the lobby iirc, and if that player had a bad connection, the whole lobby was affected.
Is this still the case ?

[TMcCoy]

Splatoon is amazing and so underrated!

[maplemiles]

Glad it's not getting review bombed

[boithebingus]

So what is the overall rating for the game as a full package?

[Scudge]

4:00, I’ve seen them in game, that’s gotta be some odds considering the size of the player base

[Cxtherine.]

Curious to see what made it sell more than Pokemon and Animal Crossing in Japan 😱

To me they have perfected the Splatoon formula it all feels and plays excellent however much like super smash bros melee where and what the sequels will do is gonna be interesting
