Artwork of Prlz.

Prlz (pronounced pearls)[1] are a type of currency in Splatoon 3: Side Order. The player's total score is converted into Prlz after an attempt to ascend the Spire of Order (a "run").

At the end of a run, the player's Color chips and Membux will be converted into points, which are then converted into Prlz.

Usage

Prlz can be exchanged for permanent upgrades outside the Spire of Order or locker decorations, locker stickers, banners and gear in Cipher's shop.

Translation notes

  1. The name of the currency is inconsistent. In the French trailer, gameplay footage calls them "perlettes" (pearlies) while the voice-over refers to them as "péperles".
