Nintendo held its firstDirect presentationin 18 months on February 17, and we weren’t disappointed with what they had to show. Nintendo finished their Direct by announcingSplatoon 3,coming to the Switch in 2022. If like me, you left the Nintendo Direct conference with the burning desire to know more about theSplatoon 3hairstyles, then you’ve come to the right place.
What IsSplatoon?
Splatoonis a family-friendly third-person shooter published by Nintendo. The originalSplatoonwas first revealed at E3 2014 and is known for its bright colours, chaotic modes and family-friendly gameplay. The game does feature a single-player story but is focused more on online multiplayer battles.
After the success ofSplatoon, Nintendo releasedSplatoon 2in 2017. The sequel proved to be a massive success, selling over twice as many units as the originalSplatoon. The originalSplatoonsold4.95 million unitson the Wii U, whilstSplatoon 2has sold11.9 million unitson the Nintendo Switch. With such a big hype around theSplatoonseries, couldSplatoon 3look to be just as successful as its predecessors?
All Of The ConfirmedSplatoon 3Hairstyles
You can view all of the hairstyles that were featured in theSplatoon 3announcement trailer below. It is important to note that these aren’t all of the hairstyles that will be available in the final game, there were other styles yet to be shown.
ShackNewsfirst reported on the possibility that all of the customisation options are gender-neutral. Aneagle-eyed viewerof the Nintendo Direct pointed out the lack of “boy or girl” options. In previousSplatoontitles, all customisation options required players to select between the two genders. It looks as though Nintendo may have gone for a gender-neutral format for the next instalment. The change is sure to be welcomed by many fans that would rather not be locked into specific genders whilst they play.
Style 1. A longer hairstyle that features a plait on one side.
Style 2. Classic pony-tail.
Style 3. Longer style hair with bangs.
Style 4. Those that let their parents give them a classic bowl cut when they were younger will recognise this one.
Style 5. The tied-back braids style will likely be one of the most popular hairstyles inSplatoon 3.
Style 6. A shorter hairstyle with a wavey effect, featuring a little fringe!
When WillSplatoon 3Release?
