Splatoon 3 single-player mode
Both previous games, Splatoon and Splatoon 2 had single-player modes in them, but Nintendo has aimed to add even more to the game. The company has stated that a brand new mode will be introduced. Although gamers mostly focus on Splatoon’s multiplayer modes, they also want to have fun by themselves.
Fans of the franchise have been calling for new single-player modes for some time now, and it seems that Nintendo is delivering. So, it seems that Octo Valley and Amiboo Challenges will not be the only single-player modes from now on.
The Nintendo Treehouse: Live will shine new light on Splatoon 3 and its new gameplay and game modes
Nintendo Splatfest World Premiere
The Nintendo Treehouse: Live presentations will also share more information on the August 27th Splatfest World premiere. Thus far, we know this will be a worldwide demo that players will be able to play for up to 12 hours (from 9 am to 9 pm local time)! But how will it work?
Players will need to choose one of three teams (rock, paper, or scissors) and try to win over the others. The demo will be divided into two parts: a classic turf war (a two-team 4 vs 4) and a brand new tricolor turf war battle (a three-team all-out battle). Nintendo will also provide new players with a playable tutorial (available from August 25) and will give everyone 26 iconic and new weapons for players to try out.
The Nintendo Splatfest will try to bring in all kinds of players so that they can try out the new game and see if they like it
Harvestella gameplay reveal
This new fantasy-lifestyle RPG by Square Enix will be based on changing seasons, farming crops, battling enemies, and exploring mysteries. In this game, you will fish, make friends, and even battle Quietus, the season of death.
There are some trailers already out there, but Nintendo promises to release a new gameplay-focused showcase. Although the game will be available for PC through Steam, this trailer may show some essential notions.
