Splatoon 3 PC Game 2022 review:
The story takes place about a year and a half after the events of the Chaos vs Order festival, in a city called Tintelia (also known as the “city of chaos”), stationed within the same desert region.
Like its predecessors, Splatoon 3 is a third-person shooter. Players choose to be either an “Inkling” or “Octoling” as their player character. Both wield weaponry that shoots colored ink. Weapons are diverse in ability and imagery, with most resembling household objects. For example, Rollers are large paint rollers that can cover large amounts of area in ink but are generally limited to close-range combat. At the same time, Chargers are sniper rifle-like weapons with a long-range for sniping opponents but are less effective at painting the ground.
Splatoon 3 expands upon this by adding new main and special weapons to the game. Inklings and Octolings also have the ability to morph into a squid or octopus form respectively. This form is referred to as the “swim form,” and can be used to climb ink-covered walls or swim through ink faster than the humanoid forms can walk. Weapons have a finite amount of ink ammunition, and submerging in ink via the swim form replenishes it quicker than in humanoid form. All basic weapons from the prior Splatoon games return in Splatoon 3.
Pros of Splatoon 3:
- Returning from its predecessor as a playable online multiplayer game mode is Regular Battle, known as Turf War.
- In Regular Battles, two teams of four players compete to cover the most amount of the map’s area in their respective ink colors. Each team can cover over an area covered by the opponents with their color in return, and the opposing team’s ink slows movement, gradually deals damage and prevents the use of the player’s swim form.
- Each player is equipped with a weapon set, chosen before each match, and each set comes with additional secondary and special weapons in addition to its main weapon. Secondary weapons provide alternate forms of attacking the other team and inking the ground; for example, Splat Bombs that explode a second after contact with a surface and Burst Bombs that explode upon impact.
