With Splatoon 3’s Splatfests having three participants, it probably shouldn’t come as a surprise that Nintendo would jump on the opportunity to cross-over with The Legend of Zelda’s iconic Triforce trio, and yet here we are.
As announced in the tweet below, the next Splatfest will pit together Courage, Wisdom, and Power.
A special Splatoon x The Legend of #Zelda Splatfest in #Splatoon3 is ink-coming! Will you side with #TeamPower, #TeamWisdom, or #TeamCourage?
This special in-game event runs from 5/5 at 5pm PT to 5/7 at 5pm PT! pic.twitter.com/DuzbCEIXmi

The references go even further, though with the matches taking place on a unique version of Scorch Gorge that’s shaped like the Triforce itself!

You’ll be able to take part in this Splatfest in Splatoon 3 from May 5th to May 7th, just before the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

Whether it’s an exciting new entry in a series long established or a weird experiment meant only for the dedicated, Tom is eager to report on it. Rest assured, if Nintendo ever announces Elite Beat Agents 2, he’ll be there.
