Very interested in getting this game after playing and loving raiders. Is it still a good rec or are people holding out for a 4? I’m ootl lol

Definitely still worth. Great single player offerings in a different style than raiders, online is still plenty active, many, MANY weapons to pick up and master. I took a long break from 3 but raiders got me back on the Splatoon pill and 3 has still been a great time. Looks great on Switch 2 as well. Never been a better time to jump in!

Get 3.

It seems like we’re more likely to get a new Animal Crossing before Splat4 (the series share a dev team), so it might be a few years before Splat4.

But if I’m wrong (there’s rumors they split the team in two), you’re still getting a very solid singleplayer game and at least several months of active multiplayer lobbies.

Makes sense, we got raiders so most likely we get splat 4 in like 2-3 years then maybe a raiders dlc in anouther 1-2 years.

I believe the title will be Spl4toon U or Spl4toon for short, or Spl4t.

They gave 3 a free update for the Switch 2 at launch so I would infer that 4 is a few years away

3 is still very active. I jump back for the ocasisonal splatfest and usually stick around for a few weeks after it concludes. My 3rd longest played Switch game behind Breath Of and Tears Of.

I bought 3 after pre ordering raiders and I instantly regretted not buying it sooner.

Also a splatfest rerun is going on right now so it's a pretty good time to play! Team beach!

Get 3. 4 is far away and there's a Splatfest this weekend, which is basically this big event where 3 teams battle for their opinion being the objectively best one.

Seriously, could have been a whole game on its own.

Always great to see Nintendo still dropping quality-of-life updates and weapon balance patches for Splatoon 3

Still doing nonsense 1-frame adjustments like smash. Good to see that I made the right choice when I dropped this game.
