Right off the bat this is the most solid Splatoon has been in just about every regard; crazy to think there will likely be years of updates to keep us coming with steady release of new maps and weapons. I can't say Splatoon 3 really shakes up a lot from previous entries. If you liked one Splatoon game, you'll probably like them all; and same logic applies if you never cared for the franchise in the first place. Maps, modes, and Salmon Run all feature great quality of life changes that make them just a bit more solid than their Splatoon 2 counterparts with weapons/specials being much more balanced than in Splatoon 1 and the map selection already being more interesting than Splatoon 2. Campaign takes a lot from Octo Expansion in both its structure and challenge. Genuinely don't have too much to say. Just a very fun shooter that I'm excited to see where it goes in the future.
