Splatoon 3’s upcoming DLC will feature ‘new and different’ gameplay, producer claims
But there is no current release date for the second piece of DLC for the game
Splatoon 3’s upcoming DLC will feature “new and different gameplay,” according to the game’s producer.
In an interview with Famitsu (via Nintendo Everything), producer Hisashi Nogami and co-directors Shintaro Sato and Seita Inoue spoke about Splatoon 3‘s upcoming Side Order DLC.
Little is known about the Side Order expansion, which was first teased as part of a trailer for the game’s season pass. However, Nogami did say that the expansion is a “single-player campaign” and will be “completely new and different.”
“In the second wave of this DLC, a new single-player campaign called Side Order super jumps to the Splatoon 3 game. See what’s become of Inkopolis Square, the central area featured in the Splatoon 2 game,” reads a description for the expansion.
There is no current release date for the second piece of DLC for the game.
In VGC’s Splatoon 3 review, critic Matthew Castle called the game “Nintendo’s safest sequel”.
“Its back-of-the-box features read more like (generous) patch notes than a bold invitation to a world of ink-flinging revolution. But if it provides solid fun within those baby steps, does it truly matter? In a game where point one of a percent can result in its biggest thrills, a major splash of paint isn’t always required.”
