With over 10.13 million copies sold since its launch in September, Splatoon 3 has been an unsurprisingly massive success for Nintendo, and the company has no plans of letting that momentum slow anytime soon. At its recent Direct presentation, Nintendo announced an Expansion Pass for Splatoon 3 that will include two DLCs released for the shooter over the coming months.

Now, the Japanese company has confirmed when the first of those two waves will launch. Wave 1 of Splatoon 3’s Expansion Pass will release later this month on February 28. Specific details on what it bring to the game haven’t yet been shared, but Nintendo has previously revealed that the DLC will be bringing back the fan-favourite hub location of Inkopolis, and Booyah Base with it.

Meanwhile, images of some of the characters you’ll find in Inkopolis – including the Squid Sisters, who will have performances during every Splatfest – have also been released. Check them out below.

Wave 2 of Splatoon 3’s Expansion Pass will arrive next year and bring a new single player campaign.
