Cpvr Posted Tuesday at 10:28 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:28 PM (edited) Nintendo has announced it will end regular updates for Splatoon 3, two years after the game launched for Nintendo Switch. The news was shared after this week’s special Grand Festival event. Nintendo has regularly updated Splatoon 3 with new weapons, Splatfests, and features since its launch on September 9, 2022. Support for the game’s predecessor, Splatoon 2, also lasted for around two years, with its final significant update arriving in July 2019. “After 2 INK-credible years of Splatoon 3, regular updates will come to a close,” reads a message on the official Splatoon X account. “Don’t worry! Splatoween, Frosty Fest, Spring Fest, and Summer Nights will continue with some returning themes! “Updates for weapon adjustments will be released as needed. Big Run, Eggstra Work, and Monthly Challenges will continue for the time being.” Splatoon 3’s Side Order DLC, the new single-player campaign and final piece of content included in the game’s $24.99 / £22.49 Expansion Pass, was released in February of this year. The Splatoon 3 World Championship 2024 and the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe World Championship 2024 were then held in April. They were originally due to take place in January at Nintendo Live 2024, but they had to be rescheduled after the event was cancelled due to safety concerns Source: Videogameschronicle Edited Tuesday at 10:28 PM by Cpvr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted 25 minutes ago Share Posted 25 minutes ago Two years of updates is pretty standard for Nintendo games like Splatoon. I wonder how long they’ll keep the servers running, though, especially for competitive events like Big Run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
