Players are asked &#8220;What would you be in a fantasy world? A wizard, knight, or Ninja?&#8221;, and as always, each member of the idol group, Deep Cut, will represent each team respectively. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, in Splatoween tradition, players are given a nice treat ahead of the event. This time, it&#8217;s the <strong><em>Splatoon 2<\/em><\/strong> Splatoween headgear making their return. To obtain the free gear, players must go to the news app on their Nintendo Switch, locate the latest newsletter from the <em>Splatoon 3<\/em>\/SRL channel, click the link at the end of the newsletter, and go to the terminal in the lobby directly next to the battle pot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.siliconera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/splatoon-3-splatoween-splatfest-being-held-ahead-of-halloween.jpg?fit=1200%2C675\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only one team will rule them all!
