Splatoon 3 will arrive on September 9th and Nintendo is setting the table with a dedicated Direct showcase. The stream will get underway at 9AM ET on August 10th and will contain around 30 minutes of updates. It’s likely to be a deep dive into one of Nintendo’s tentpole Switch releases for this year. You’ll be able to watch the presentation on Nintendo’s YouTube channel.
Nintendo often holds dedicated Direct events for its core games in the lead up to their release. It’s a smart way for the company to get more eyes on those titles and give folks who are undecided whether to buy them some more insight. Meanwhile, Nintendo will release a Splatoon 3-themed Switch OLED later this month, with a Pro Controller and carrying case featuring designs from the game arriving on September 9th.
