Highlights

  • Nintendo unveils new Splatoon 3 Amiibo featuring the Squid Sisters and Off the Hook idol groups, which are set to release on September 5.
  • Splatoon 3 players can use Amiibo for exclusive outfits and gear, enhancing gameplay experience.

As a dedicated gamer with over a decade of experience under my belt, I’ve grown to appreciate the intricacies and depth that Nintendo brings to its games, especially those within the Splatoon franchise. The latest addition to this beloved series, Splatoon 3, has been an absolute joy to play since its release in 2022. With the recent announcement of new Splatoon 3 Amiibo featuring the iconic Squid Sisters and Off the Hook idol groups, I can’t help but feel a surge of excitement.

As a dedicated fan of Splatoon, I’m thrilled to share that Nintendo has unveiled an exciting new lineup of Amiibo figures for Splatoon 3! These charming collectibles are inspired by the iconic Squid Sisters and the Off the Hook idol group. The official Twitter account of Nintendo treated us to a sneak peek, showcasing these new Splatoon 3 Amiibo in their vibrant in-game attire. Mark your calendars, as these anticipated figures are set to drop later this year, perfectly aligned with the grand finale of Splatoon 3’s Splatfests.

In a nutshell: Released in 2022, Splatoon 3 quickly gained popularity on the Nintendo Switch due to features like Amiibo support. With Nintendo producing figures based on the game, players can unlock unique outfits for their characters by scanning these figurines. These exclusive items align with the post-apocalyptic desertpunk theme of Splatoon 3. Previously owned Amiibo, such as Callie and Marie from the original Splatoon, are also compatible with the third game, enabling players to use legacy outfits. The upcoming Splatfest will mark a farewell event for the game and its iconic characters, including the Squid Sisters and Off the Hook.

Nintendo shared images of four new figurines on Twitter, including the set of Callie and Marie, nicknamed “Squid Sisters [Alternative]” in a rough translation. In their latest game, Splatoon 3, they are seen wearing their outfits from the story mode. Another set, labeled “[Side Order],” represents Off the Hook, donning their costumes from the Side Order DLC. Pearl accessorizes with her hip jewelry and coat, while Marina puts on her trendy orange suit jacket. These figurines are scheduled for release on September 5, just before Splatoon’s final Splatfest.

When Will the Splatoon 3 Squid Sisters and Off the Hook Amiibo Release?

  • September 5, 2024

Similar to how players in Splatoon 3 have the ability to snap photos and obtain unique items using Amiibo figures, just like before. However, Nintendo has kept quiet about the specific skills and enhancements these figurines will bestow upon the game. The enthusiasm for these collectible versions of renowned idol groups has been palpable, with numerous fans eagerly anticipating their acquisition.

As a dedicated gamer of the Splatoon series, I’ve been playing Splatoon 3 for two years now, and it seems we’re approaching the end of its life cycle. There are even whispers of Splatoon 4 in development, supposedly intended for the next-generation Nintendo Switch. With all three idol groups present in Splatoon 3 and set to participate in the final Splatfest, there’s a strong possibility that Deep Cut will receive their own figurines based on their costumes as featured in the final Splatfest teaser trailer. For now, we eagerly await the last Splatfest, as well as the upcoming Amiibo releases from the Squid Sisters and Off the Hook.
