Splatoon 3 Reveals Event Roadmap for November

Key Takeaways

  • November brings new challenges to Splatoon 3 like team duels and inkjet-centric matches.
  • The Eggstra Work Salmon Run shift on Nov 8-10 will offer rewards for collecting the most Golden Eggs.

As a dedicated Splatoon fanatic with over 10 years of ink-splattering experience under my belt, I must say that Nintendo has truly outdone themselves with the November event roadmap for Splatoon 3. With its unique blend of team duels and inkjet-centric matches, this update promises to bring a fresh wave of excitement to the already vibrant and colorful world of Splatoon.


The schedule for Splatoon 3‘s November event has been disclosed, featuring a lineup of fresh challenges for gamers to conquer and an Eggstra Work shift in Salmon Run. Splatoon 3, one of Nintendo’s standout titles on the Switch console, delivers an exclusive online multiplayer third-person shooter experience that has been consistently updated for more than two years. The game remains popular due to its regular seasonal events and content updates, with Splatfests being the most notable among them.

Although significant updates for Splatoon 3 have wrapped up with the Grand Festival Splatfest, the game continues to rotate through seasonal events and past Splatfest themes. The latest Splatfest, which revisited a theme from Splatoon 2, asked players to imagine themselves in a fantasy world. This event, often referred to as Splatoween, ended around the end of October, with Big Man and Team Ninja emerging victorious overall. Here’s what’s coming up for Splatoon 3 in November, as recently announced.

On the official Splatoon Twitter, they announced temporary challenges in Splatoon 3 for gamers to participate. These limited-time events will last a day each and offer additional rewards in various Player vs Player modes within Splatoon 3. For example, Extreme Jump Battle gives players higher jumps, while Sheldon’s Sampler randomly assigns weapons. November’s challenges include “Inkjets for Everyone!”, which only allows players to utilize main weapons that have Splatoon 3’s Inkjet special weapon.

Splatoon 3’s November 2024 Roadmap:

  • Duel of Dynamic Duos Challenge (Multiplayer matches use teams of two instead of four): November 1-2
  • Eggstra Work Salmon Run Shift: November 8-10
  • Inkjets for Everyone! Challenge (Limits players to main weapons that come with the Inkjet special weapon): November 10-11
  • Swim It to Win It Challenge (Increased Swim Speed for all players): November 19-20
  • Work the Angles Challenge (Limits players to main weapons that come with the Angle Shooter subweapon): November 28-29
  • Monthly Challenge (In Turf War, only primary gear abilities will be enabled, while secondary gear abilities are disabled): November 29-30

This schedule unveils a unique event called the “Eggstra Work Salmon Run” happening from November 8-10, 2024, within the game Splatoon 3. During this limited-time event, players are encouraged to gather as many Golden Eggs as possible. Special prizes await those who participate, and even greater rewards are offered for those who rank among the top percentages or reach a specific high score. The last instance of such an event was in July 2024.

With the main content updates for Splatoon 3 completed and the game now rotating through its earlier themes, Nintendo is starting to direct its attention towards their upcoming console. At this time, there’s no announcement about when Splatoon might appear on the successor of the Nintendo Switch, but whispers suggest that a Splatoon 4 could be in development. For now, fans will have to stay patient as the Switch continues to release new games, including Mario and Luigi: Brothership and the recently unveiled Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition.
