Octo Expansion teaser trailer

The Octo Expansion was revealed through a teaser trailer that was originally shown in the 8 March 2018 Nintendo Direct. At the time of release, the teaser offered little to no explanation for the identities of the new characters nor the events shown in it, but cryptically confirmed the long-speculated upcoming inclusion of playable Octoling characters.

Nasty Majesty by Off the Hook plays throughout the teaser trailer. Initially presented as surveillance footage, the teaser features Agent 8 awaking within the Abandoned Station, then boarding a subway car; as they dramatically walk from one car to the next, the characters encountered throughout the mode are revealed one by one. In one train car, an assortment of denizens of the deep is suddenly replaced with Sanitized Octolings.

The Player Settings screen used in the mode is shown, followed by cutscene footage of the Abandoned Station, then the Turnstyle mechanic. Gameplay footage of Fake Plastic Station, Brute Rollup Station, Abracadabra Station, Maverick Station, Ballercise Station, Wack 8-Ball Station, Righteous Rails Station and one of the Thang Stations is then shown in quick succession. One of the cutscenes from the Escape missions is then shown, followed by footage of Octoling players in Inkopolis Square then the Reef, revealing that the mode unlocks playable Octolings in Splatoon 2.

The trailer ends with Marina singing without instrumentation, as Agent 8 sleeps on the same station floor seen in the beginning of the teaser. The surveillance screen footage presentation returns, and the DLC's title is revealed.

The teaser is edited to reveal new elements and characters in time with the emphatic record scratch parts of Nasty Majesty.

Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass: Wave 2: Side Order teaser trailer
Release date: {{{releasedate}}}

A teaser trailer revealing Side Order was shown in the latter half of the Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass trailer shown in the February 2023 Nintendo Direct. The teaser trailer opens with a slow pan across a dull, stark white version of Inkopolis Square from Splatoon 2, slowly focusing on Agent 8, who is wearing new gear. This altered version of Inkopolis Square features presumed dead or bleached coral; Deca Tower has been replaced with the Spire of Order. A swarm of fish-like objects "swim" around Agent 8 towards the end of the clip shown.

Throughout the trailer, various cryptic static images and short video clips briefly flicker on-screen; the images primarily depict Agent 8 in strange bright white locations, as well as Off the Hook, while the clips seemingly depict biological components such as cells, blood, and organs.

A dull, slightly out-of-tune music box melody with steady electronic percussion accompanies the teaser trailer, which slowly grows more intense; towards the end, someone can be heard speaking.

Side Order trailer

A second Side Order trailer which focused on gameplay was shown in the September 2023 Nintendo Direct. The trailer opens with Agent 8 in an updated version of the dull, stark white version of Inkopolis Square alongside the Pearl Drone, a drone resembling Pearl, as the same out-of-tune music box melody featured in the first trailer plays.

Agent 8 is shown descending into an unknown Floor via a grappling attachment on the Pearl Drone. The Pearl drone, Agent 8's equipment and Jelletons, new type of unknown fish-like enemy are revealed, then gameplay footage of Agent 8 in combat with the enemies is shown. The new enemies appear to spawn en masse from a black orb-shaped mechanism.

Cutscene footage of Agent 8 and Pearl encountering Acht in an elevator is then shown; within it, Acht introduces themself as an old friend of Marina's. The Floor Selection and Palette screens are shown, then Agent 8 enters the Exposed Winding Floor. Gameplay footage of several different unknown Floors is shown in quick succession, then the trailer abruptly cuts to a clip of Agent 8's octopus ghost entering a crystalized shell resembling their form, seemingly spawning into a Floor. After a cut to black, Agent 8 is shown running in slow motion alongside the Pearl Drone towards a very large six-tiered mechanical contraption; each of its tiers has separate types of protruding components and spins independently of the others. After another cut to black, the mode's title is shown with glitch and black coral effects.

Throughout the trailer various scenes depict the Spire of Order's Floors seemingly spontaneously generating with a Matrix-style code effect. Many Floors shown appear to have blocky, black holes in their walls reminiscent of a greeble effect. Additionally, armor pickups and an unknown can-shaped pickup bearing Marina's poster design can be spotted within certain Floors.

Agent 8's ink color is significantly paler compared to the previous trailer; their ink color tint appears to change between clips, seemingly being affected by different color chips. Their gear appears at various stage of upgrade throughout the trailer; the seemingly well-upgraded version includes thin, bright, hologram-like extensions on their Dualies, as well as an eyepiece similar to the See-an-Enemy HUD.

The trailer opens with the same musical box tune heard in the teaser trailer, then cuts to a slow-paced electronic glitch song with prominent industrial percussion. Midway, the song swaps for a more intense electronic song, then at the end into a different slow, echoed song.

Release date trailer

The key artwork of Splatoon 3: Side Order.

A third Side Order trailer revealing the mode's release date as well as new key artwork was posted to Twitter and YouTube on 24 January 2024.

The trailer opens with the train cutscene seen in Splatoon 3's tutorial; the player's character is instead listening to Muck Warfare (rather than Anarchy Rainbow) alongside a sleeping Smallfry and other passengers. As the player dozes off, the music becomes more and more distorted, accompanied by glitch effects. The yellow Matrix-style code seen in the second trailer slowly fills the screen.

The scene cuts to what is presumably Agent 8's point of view upon waking in the Order Sector version of Inkopolis Square. Pearl calls out to wake them, as the Square is seemingly generated on the spot by the yellow code effect. The glitch effects seen in the previous scene intermittently appear. The music box theme from the previous trailers plays as someone can be heard speaking, similar to the first trailer's ending.

The trailer then cuts to the campaign's key artwork, which unfolds from the upper section, gradually descending to the lower portion: at the zenith, Marina and Pearl (in her Inkling form) are displayed, alongside black silhouettes with red eyes. Notably, the central silhouette bears a resemblance to an Inkling sporting the "haircut" hairstyle. The middle segment showcases Jelletons circling an unknown entity, as well as Acht and Cipher. The lower segment highlights Agent 8 and the Pearl Drone. During the descent, the 22 February 2024 release date slowly fades in.
