Spring has sprangedNintendo of Europe has announced via Twitter (https://twitter.com/NintendoEurope/status/1625787811130376194?s=20) that the first wave of the previously announced Splatoon 3 DLC will arrive on February 28, 2023. Previously, Nintendo stated that this wave would arrive in Spring (https://www.destructoid.com/splatoon-3-bloats-up-with-the-first-wave-of-its-expansion-pass-this-spring/), and unless you listen to ground-dwelling marmots, that isn?t until late March.
The first of Splatoon 3?s paid DLC will be coming in two waves. As far as I can tell, this first wave contains the Inkopolis Plaza first seen in the original Splatoon. You?ll be able to see what?s happened in the past 7 or 8 Springs, catch up with the shopkeepers, and even see the Squid Sisters perform when Splatfest rolls around.

That?s cool. That?s weird. I?ve never really thought of a lobby as paid DLC material, but maybe this is just the appetizer. There?s a second wave that will be coming along eventually, and that includes a story campaign that involves Inkopolis Square, the Splatoon 2 hub. I?m going to assume that?s where the meat of this DLC is really going to be, but Nintendo hasn?t done a super-great job of communicating that. Hopefully, we?ll finally get the ability to play as Salmonids.
Splatoon 3 is available right now on Switch. The first wave of DLC hits February 28, 2023, with the second wave coming before the end of the year.
