SplatNet 3

SplatNet 3 is an online service for Splatoon 3, which contains features like checking battle records and ordering special in-game gear from the SplatNet Gear Shop, as well as the new feature Crusty Sean’s Wandercrust. It is a sequel to SplatNet 2 and was announced in the Splatoon 3 Nintendo Direct on 10 August 2022. Like its predecessor, it will be available through the Nintendo Switch Online app when Splatoon 3 launches. A Nintendo Account is required to use this service.

Pages

There are four main tabs, which are always accessible on the bottom of SplatNet 3: Home, Schedule, Battles, and Salmon Run.

Home

This is the home and start-up page after opening SplatNet 3. On the top of the page, an unlabeled series of tabs advertises My Outfits as one of four other unknown pages. Directly underneath is an option labeled Online, which displays the Nintendo Switch Online User Icons of the player's currently online friends. Twelve other labeled page icons appear underneath this, with SplatNet Gear Shop, Freshest Fits, and History having larger icons than the other nine.

SplatNet Gear Shop

SplatNet Gear Shop is an online retail service that allows players to order special in-game gear not sold in shops. This version of the gear shop hosts the The Daily Drop, and appears to have a daily stock themed after a particular gear brand. At the bottom of the page, the brand's favored ability is displayed.

Freshest Fits

This page may be related to the in-game feature Freshest Fits.

History

This page displays the player's Splashtag, equipped weapon and gear, the date they started playing, their all-time best rank, total wins, total badges, and favorite weapons.

Wandercrust Tour

“	Crusty Sean's going on a journey, and the more you ink, the more points you'll get to cheer him along. Who knows, he might even bring you a souvenir!	”

Further down is a detailed list of battles showing if the player won or lost, the stage, how many points they had, and what weapon they used, as well as what mode was played. Unlike in Splatoon 2, this information is also viewable in-game instead of exclusively available in SplatNet.
