Splatoon 3’s Latest Update Prepares It For The Legend Of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom (No, Really)
Splatoon 3’s latest update is live, arriving in time for the pending release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
As reported by Comic Book, the update now brings the game up to version 3.1.1. You can read the patch notes for this update below:
Changes to Splatfests
In addition to adding data relating to future Splatfests, we released this update to adjust how stages look during Splatfests. Please note that we plan on making further changes to ink coloring when using Color Lock in the next update.
The next update is scheduled to be released at the end of the current season. It will focus primarily on balance adjustments and adding features for the new season starting in June.
Fixes to Multiplayer

Fixes to Splatfests
Other Fixes
Note: Compatible with Ver. 3.1.0 battle replays. Not compatible with Ver. 3.0.1 or earlier battle replays.
Of course, if you’re a Nintendo fan, you probably already knew this was coming. We also reported on the Zelda themed Splatfest two weeks ago. For this Splatfest, players are tasked to choose which Triforce they would choose, and as you may know, each Triforce has a matching character.
The Triforce of Power is all about Ganon, the Triforce of Wisdom represents Princess Zelda, and the Triforce of Courage represents the hero of Hyrule, Link.
The Splatfest will go live from May 5, 2023, 5 PM PDT, to May 7, 2023.

Given how long it’s been for such an event, Nintendo likely expects to see a lot more engagement for this Splatfest
