What Do You Seek in Splatoon 3 Zelda Splatfest: Power, Wisdom, or Courage?
The next Splatfest for Splatoon 3 is officially underway and is confirmed to be another collaboration. Similar to the Pokemon-themed Splatfest held last year in anticipation of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, this Splatfest will be a collaboration with the Legend of Zelda series in the lead-up to Tears of the Kingdom.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will officially release for Nintendo Switch on May 12, 2023.
The theme of this Splatfest is Power, Wisdom, and Courage, which are symbolic of the Triforce from the Legend of Zelda series. The three pieces of the Triforce are each wielded by the three central characters of the franchise.
Ganondorf wields Power, Zelda wields Wisdom, and Link wields Courage. Akin to other Splatfest, players can choose their teams before joining in Turf War battles to claim the most turf and seek victory.
This Legend of Zelda-themed Splatfest will be the seventh Splatfest overall for Splatoon 3, following up from the previous conspiracy-themed event in April. Team Nessie claimed victory in that event over Team Alien and Team Bigfoot.
The Legend of Zelda Splatfest will officially begin at 5 PM PT on May 5, 2023, and end at 5 pm PT on May 7, 2023. For more of the latest information on Splatoon 3, The Legend of Zelda, and other Nintendo-related news, please be sure to continue reading The Nerd Stash in the future!
