The Triple Splashdown is a reworked version of the Splashdown special from Splatoon 2. The special works the same way as Splashdown, but the user summons two giant fists made of ink ahead and to either side of them to create two additional Splashdowns.

The user as well as each of the fists can be shot down by opponents, but if any of them survive, they will complete a Splashdown even if the user is splatted. This makes the counterplay of the original Splashdown - simply shooting down the user - much more dangerous unless the opponent can fire from outside the Triple Splashdown’s range or has very high firepower.

When splatted during the Triple Splashdown’s duration, the user retains a portion of their full special gauge, even if one or both of the fists complete the Splashdown.

Compared to the original Splashdown, the Triple Splashdown deals far more damage overall and covers a wider, less predictable area. Its overall painting ability is similar to the original, but each individual Splashdown has reduced painting. It is also stronger against Brellas and other shields, able to destroy the shield with one Splashdown and then splat the player behind it with the next.

Like the Splashdown from the previous game, the player can use the special while super jumping to be invulnerable during the special, but the two fists will not be present.

This special is one of the nine available specials in Salmon Run Next Wave.

Quotes

“

SRL Ballistics here with a triple-decker scoop—the Triple Splashdown special is coming! It's an older special that's been modified, but that mod team did some WORK. This bad boy generates two massive fists made of ink and allows the player to jump and splash down alongside them.

The Triple Splashdown is a modified version of the special weapon used in Inkopolis, arriving in #Splatoon3's Chill Season 2023. Rise into the air and pound the ground with two fearsome fists of ink, generating up to three explosions!

Trivia

• Triple Splashdown is the third special weapon from a previous Splatoon series game that has been modified to fit the "three" theme prominent in Splatoon 3, with the other specials being Triple Inkstrike, Wavebreaker, and Trizooka.
• The Triple Splashdown was added to Salmon Run Next Wave before any weapon kits featuring it were released. It is currently the first and only special weapon with this distinction (including the original Salmon Run).
  • Additionally, when jobs are viewed in SplatNet 3, Triple Splashdown's icon is replaced by Trizooka's icon.
