Splatoon 3‘s next big story expansion, Side Order, will launch on February 22. Nintendo has provided an overview for the DLC via a recent trailer. The trailer reveals what fans can expect from the expansion’s gameplay loop. Players will be trying to traverse the massive “Spire of Order.” Along the way, they will be picking which floor to go to and whether to set the difficulty to easy, medium, or hard. The higher the difficulty, the harder the challenge for completing the floor. It also means better rewards and better color chip enhancements.
The color chip enhancements are upgrades similar to those you might find in a rougelite like Hades or Sifu. Essentially, they upgrade Agent 8’s abilities and enhance them in certain ways. For example, it can increase your firing rate, give you a faster cooldown on abilities, and more.
However, much like a roguelite, if you die/fail to complete your objection, you are forced to start from the beginning and you lose all enhancements. That said, the enhancements you earned are converted to points which you can use to install permanent upgrades to health and more.
Lastly, Splatoon 3 Side Order will be available to own for owners of the game’s expansion pass on February 22.
