Once the demo starts, you’ll be asked to pick a team. The options are Rock, Paper, and Scissors. It doesn’t matter which one you pick, but you can’t change it after selecting. Consider picking an option that your friends are also picking so that you can be on the same team.

You’ll be able to choose from 26 weapons in the Splatfest demo as well as try out the test range for practice.

This is the only 12-hour period in which you’ll be able to demo Splatoon 3 and participate in the Splatfest, so make sure to mark your calendar if you want to play. The full game will release on September 9.
