Splatoon 3 Splatfest asks you which ice cream is best, wants you to get messy

A new splatfest is coming to Splatoon 3 this July. On select dates, players will be able to represent their favorite of three ice cream flavors: Vanilla, Strawberry and Mint.

For those who don’t know, Splatfests are limited-time events where you can choose between different factions and fight for your personal preferences. Previous Splatfest themes have been things like Grass, fire and Water, or my personal favorite Spicy Sweet or Sour.

If you want to dirty your hdnas with sticky sweet ice cream, you’ll want to launch Splatoon 3 between July 14 and 16. During that time, you will be able to lead a team of three against all. . The winning ice cream flavor will be announced after this period of conflict, forever enshrined in the annals of Squid history.

There’s also the Foggy Notion challenge, which has players fighting with very limited vision on the map. As such, you’ll have a hard time seeing what’s going on at any given moment in tense close range fights.

Now that all the facts are out of the way, mint all the way. It is the most mature flavor of the three, subtle and delicate on the tongue. Strawberry is for babies and vanilla is for the bland and basic. It won’t win though, as we all know mint is a flavor that sacrifices popularity for the sake of authenticity.

Even if Mint loses, I won’t even get mad because everyone really knows that rum with raisins is the best flavor of ice cream. No, I’m not 60, that’s fantastic and the fact that I have to spend over £50 to catch a train to the beach and have a chance of finding a shop that sells it is a tragedy.

Which ice cream flavor of the three is your favourite? Let us know below! For more Nintendo Direct news, check out our pieces on Metal Gear Solid coming to Switch!
