Held approximately once every month, the Splatfests inSplatoon 3are a lucrative way for players to earn currency and rewards for supporting the team that wins first place. Each Splatfest has a different theme, with each member of Deep Cut supporting one side of the theme. While the first twoSplatoongames saw two teams face off,Splatoon 3made it a three-team battle in each Splatfest. Withthe May 2024 Splatfest, the theme took a dark undertone, as “What would you do at the world’s end?” was the question posed to players globally. Team Same Ol' was backed by Shiver, Frye was picked for Team Bucket List, and Big Man supported Team Save the World.
Team Bucket List had a halftime Clout lead of 34.06%, with Same Ol' and Save the Day checking in at 33.36% and 32.58% each. For the first time sincethe Spicy vs Sweet vs Sour Splatfestof January 2023, Frye’s team took first place in the Splatfest. This broke a losing streak that lasted over a year and a half and saw Big Man’s streak of winning the two recent Splatfests inSplatoon 3end. Team Same Ol' took first place in Conch Shells and Clout (Pro), which earned them 210 points. However, Team Bucket List pulled ahead with points in Votes, Clout (Open), and the open Tricolor Turf War, which gave them 370 of their 415 points.
Splatoon 03 July 2025 Splatfest Results (What Would You Do At The World’s End?)
A change to Splatfest points was made duringSplatoon 3Patch 7.0.0, which increased the point totals and awarded points to the second-place team in each category. The second-place points are worth half the value of first place, which can allow teams to close the gap. This allowed Team Save the World to grab 60 points thanks to a second-place result in Clout (Pro). Twitter user OatmealDome pointed out that Frye would have won under the old point system. In that case, the score would have been 38 points for Frye, 19 points for Shiver, and no points for Big Man.
WithSplatoon 3continuing to receive periodic updates, support for the game remains at a strong point. It remains to be seen what the next Splatfest theme will be.
