Our lead illustration researcher is working overtime! In some places it's customary to give a gift back to your Valentine, though nonchalantly flinging white chocolate at them like Pearl and Marie are doing here seems less customary.

March is here, and so is the 2026 Fresh Season! Here's your look at this month's big events in Splatoon 3, including a Big Run event from March 13 to March 15 at Eeltail Alley. Word is King Salmonids may appear so come prepared!

February's Monthly Challenge takes place from Feb 21 to Feb 22, and this time you'll need to keep it moving with Tower Control battles!

[Notification] Update data Ver 11.0.0 for #Splatoon3 is now available. Please see the following page for additional details: ninten.do/6010SqvMG

The research continues: In Ver. 11.0.0 if you have the Stealth Jump gear ability equipped and Super Jump to a far away location, your flight time will take longer. Additionally, weapon balance updates will be included. The Ver. 11.0.0 update drops Jan 29!

To adjust for this change, each main weapon now has a slightly larger hitbox that can hit Inkling or Octoling forms more often. Additionally, weapons with shorter ranges will now have slightly larger hit boxes on their attacks.

In Ver. 11.0.0 Inklings and Octolings' hitboxes when in squid form and when submerged in ink will be smaller than before and harder to hit.

Further research shows that your opponent's health will only be visible to you if they're in your line of sight, and only for a few seconds after they've been damaged. Opponents submerged in ink or behind cover will also have their health concealed.

Ver. 11.0.0 also adds a new visual indicator of how much health a damaged Inkling or Octoling has left. Use this info to help see which of your allies is in trouble or decide if it's time to push the advantage.

In addition to splatting opponents, securing zones with ink and getting assist splats with your allies will make it easier to enter Flow Aura. Taking down an opponent who’s in Flow Aura state will also make it easier to enter Flow Aura yourself. Teamwork makes the dream work!

The Flow Aura state will stay active for a while, but its duration will be increased if you get additional splats, or assist your allies in getting more splats. We've found that continuing to win dramatically decreases the chances of losing!

The SRL research team is proud to present new findings about Ver. 11.0.0! First up is the Flow Aura state. If you splat multiple opponents without getting splatted yourself you'll automatically ink the ground around you and your physical abilities will all be slightly improved.
