This is the New Squidbeak Splatoon who work together undercover to defeat the evil Octarian Army. On the left is Agent 1, on the right is Agent 2, and in the middle is their captain. Their true identities are a secret, and they'll do whatever it takes to support the new Agent 3.

Attention, worldwide squid researchers! Splatoon 3 was recently announced via video transmission. It doesn’t launch for some time, but we learned some fascinating ecological details: a new Inkling and Octoling habitat has been found! And it seems quite different than Inkopolis…

This is the Hero Suit worn by the new Agent 3. It's flexible enough to bust sweet moves in, yet it can withstand the harsh conditions in the Splatlands. Little buddy even fits in the pack! We noticed two styles in the video. Perhaps they're each suited to different situations?

Agent 8: Team Order Even Octolings who’ve been freed by the Calamari Inkantation don’t lose their disciplined personalities. Agent 8 can’t sleep until every nearby weapon has been cleaned and checked. In fact, I hear Sheldon might be looking to hire Eight to work at Ammo Knights.

This is the Killer Wail 5.1. It also appears to be a modified version of a special weapon from Inkopolis. The six floating megaphones move autonomously and attack with lasers that chase enemies. For such a dusty place, it seems the Splatlands are brimming with shiny tech!

This special weapon turns an Inkling into a shadowy warrior called a Zipcaster. With tentacles that stretch way out and stick to walls, you can zoom around and cause mad chaos! To conceal your identity, when the ink runs out, you'll be returned to where you first transformed.

We just found more details about a new special! The Ultra Stamp lets players attack with a huge hammer. Pressing and holding the ZR Button allows you to advance while striking with the hammer! It looks like you can guard ink attacks from the front, but your back is exposed.

A Splatocalypse of cataclysmic proportions has arrived! Will you side with the punky Pearl and thrash towards victory with Team Chaos? Or join forces with the mellow Marina and harmonize with Team Order? The Final Splatfest begins today, and runs until 7/21 at 5am PT!

Merry Fishmas! A greeting card just arrived at the lab, and this year it’s from a Salmonid researcher! These usually noisy Salmonids seem to also be enjoying their cozy holiday break.

We discovered a demo version of C-Side's hit track, Clickbait! This song rips with Splatsville spirit. With an electrifying rhythm and supercharged guitar, this jam sounds like a band at the top of their game!

Crusty Sean & Bisk: Team Order Their shared love for footwear make it natural that they’d end up on the same side. When these neighbors get caught up in shoe talk, it can last until sunup. Is THAT why the lines for Sean’s food truck are so long?

New details on a Special called the Booyah Bomb! Summon a powerful ball of ink, and then unleash it for a big inkplosion. Once activated, charge it up faster by using “Booyah!”. Teammates can also get a small bonus to their special meter with “Booyah!” rally cries of their own!

We’ve identified two new ways that Inklings can move. A “squid roll” allows them to leap and twirl out of their ink, and a “squid surge” allows them to quickly swim up ink-covered walls and jump out at the top! Just think how these abilities could be used in the heat of battle…

Murch: Team Order “This new gear I got’ll blow your fins off, for reals!"  One quick glance into Murch’s eye will tell you where his loyalties lie. This driven street urchin has laser focus and never rests on his laurels.

He may have found a way to exploit the peaceful order of Inkopolis, but make no mistake–at his core, Spyke is an agent of Chaos.

Now that there is an official account for Splatoon news, there isn't much of a reason to keep this one around, so I will likely be closing it sometime in the near future. I'd like to thank all of you for the support, and I hope you enjoy Splatoon 3 this summer!

Here we see Splatsville, the newly discovered “city of chaos.” It has a dated feel yet seems densely populated. Research indicates that Splatsville’s development has accelerated rapidly since the Final Splatfest a year and a half ago, even though it’s located far from Inkopolis.

Jelfonzo: Team Order “Forsooth, but fashion flourishes or fails on its fundamentals.”  Though a proponent of the idea that fashion is a form of freedom, Jelfonzo is also firm that context is king. One look in his watery eyes confirms his constant commitment to couture.
