Nintendo revealed lots of details about its premiere fish-person shooter in the latest Splatoon 3 direct. The sequel adds new modes, weapons, and maps, and most importantly: fashion.

It looks like there will be plenty of new options to construct your sartorial masterpiece, even if your style is kind of wack.

Style with substance

Clothes actually enhance your character’s abilities, and one Splatsville citizen can swap the bonuses on gear, so you never have to compromise your outfit to win a match.

Weapons like the Splatana sword add new strategic possibilities, and you better believe you’ll be seeing entire outfits themed around them.

Splatoon 3 will add new weapons and accessories every three months.

Battling other players is fun, but everyone knows the real joy of multiplayer games is showing off your fit.

Splatoon 3 is full of ways to goof off with friends while looking good

One of the coolest new additions is the locker room, where you can show off your favorite clothes and gear to friends.

The locker room lets you travel back in time to when you decorated your high school locker, hoping it would make people think you were cool (it never worked).

Who’s that big manta ray?

It’s not just players! NPCs are looking better than ever, including the instant fan-favorite Big Man, one member of the Deep Cut trio.

Splatfests are a way to come together with other players for themed battles while turning the whole city into a giant party.

Splatfests have three teams to join now, up from two in previous games. The final round pits the entire leading team against two members from each runner-up for one last test.

Splatoon 3’s Splatville looks like the liveliest location ever for the series. Exploring the city looks like a blast whether it’s Splatfest season or not, and should offer plenty of opportunities to show off.
