Games of the Year 2022: Splatoon 3
Splatoon 3 is both good and disappointing at the same time. At its core, Splatoon 3 is a solid game. It still has lots of fun with squid kids, octolings, and fresh styles.
All the fun from the past Splatoon games is represented here and there are nice quality of life features that are notable improvements as well.
But, unfortunately, it doesn't actually do much new. There's new gear, a new single player campaign, and one new (time gated) mode. Besides that, it's basically the same game as Splatoon 2.
So, although the core gameplay is fun, this one ends up fairly low on my list since it's not really doing anything new:
- Elden Ring
- Xenoblade Chronicles 3
- FFXIV Endwalker
- Citizen Sleeper
- The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe
- Horizon Forbidden West
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge
- Pokémon Legends: Arceus
- Chrono Cross: Radical Dreamers Edition
- Cult of the Lamb
- Neon White
- Halo Infinite
- Vampire Survivors
- Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin
- Playdate Season 1
- Immortality
- Cyberpunk 2077
- Forza Horizon 5 Hot Wheels DLC
- Triangle Strategy
- Mario Strikers: Battle League
- Multiversus Pre-Season
- Stray
- LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga
- Nobody Saves the World
- Unpacking
- Kaichu
- Tinykin
- Splatoon 3
- Total War: Warhammer 3
- Tunic
Maybe they'll drop free updates or DLC that is more novel in the future, but I'm a little disappointed by what this game has on offer.
