It seems that the upcoming September Splatfest is probably not the only thing that Splatoon 3 fans can look forward to in future updates.
Recent datamined reports have suggested that Nintendo’s latest franchise entry will be receiving three new potential Salmon Run modes, which are reportedly being called “Pair”, “Underground”, and “Contest”.

In a recent tweet, the dataminer revealed that the Switch’s latest shooter will be getting additional content in future updates in the form of three new Salmon Run modes.
In the most recent Nintendo Direct, the Splatoon 3 developers announced the very first post-launch Splatfest, along with free updates for the shooter in the coming months.
Hence, it’s honestly not all that surprising if Nintendo chooses to introduce three new Salmon Run modes in the latest Splatoon entry.
In the tweet, OatmealDome explained that based on the datamined files that they recovered, it’s highly likely that there will be three separate Salmon Run modes which will play out very differently from one another.
