Does Splatoon 3 Require Nintendo Online?
Splatoon 3 is a single-player and multiplayer video game, but it is a multiplayer-focused game. Most of the time, you will be spending your time playing online, suggesting that you need a Nintendo Online service.
To play Splatoon 3's online modes, you will need to have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. There are local multiplayer modes and single-player modes where Nintendo Online is not necessary. You can play local battles or the Return of the Mammalians offline.
