Nintendo presents the new ink refills that Splatoon 3 will have
Like little squid caps ahead of its September release, Nintendo is sharing new information about Splatoon 3, specifically the loaded guns, or Ink Loaders, the slower but more effective and deadly shots of ink.
Are you looking forward to some territorial combat? Nintendo is finalizing Splatoon 3, one of the heavyweights for this year, a new portion of squid in its ink for Nintendo Switch, for which we will have to wait until the summer is over, yes.

Splatoon 3 – Territory Battle Mode
Today it is time to talk about the new “loaded” weapons, called refills in the USAversion: they are ideal weapons for long distance, which allow you to load a very powerful ink shot by pressing the ZR button.
For that reason, these weapons (which act like the equivalent of a sniper in a conventional shooter) aren’t as direct as weapons that fire a constant stream of ink, and you have to know how to use them: Learn the rate of fire or the best positions to shoot these ink jets, which have a huge range.
This is the Splat Charger, a balanced weapon with good range and medium charge time. Our game-theory experts say that if you can attain the high ground with one of these, you’re “going to go all splat-a-tat-tat on the other team.” Is game theory science? We’re no longer sure. pic.twitter.com/tGvalhPBBA

If you are one of the fans of the Ink Loaders, Nintendo has shared three new models. The Splat Charger It will be the most balanced weapon of this class, with good range and a medium charge time: look for a high area and act as a turret.
By using the ink chargers and being able to kill enemies from afar, you will be the priority target of the other team… but this is what teamwork is all about: it distracts them so that the rest of the team can paint the terrain.
Next up is the Classic Squiffer. It’s a lightweight charger that charges so quickly we hesitate to even call it a charger! (But to be technically correct, we will continue to do so.) It doesn’t have great range, but rewards a dynamic play style with plenty of stop-and-pop action. pic.twitter.com/QfqYfGPvQM

Another charger is the Classic Squifferwhich has a much faster loading time, and hardly even looks like an ink charger.
If you don’t like this slow style of combat, this might be a good piece to get you started on ink-chargers, although its range is obviously less.
Finally, we have the E-liter 4k. This is the granddaddy of the chargers—a weapon with massive range that takes a long time to charge and consumes tremendous amounts of ink. It’s not for everyone, but in the right hands, it can be devastating. pic.twitter.com/Hhg6KKJ50Y

The opposite is the e-liter 4kthe grandfather of the Ink Loaders, with a huge range, but which takes a long time to load and consumes a lot of ink.
Few players will dare to carry it, so if you learn to use it, you will have a great advantage for your team. But of course, it is so slow that if you are caught off guard you will hardly be able to defend yourself.
There are many Switch controllers for sale. These are the highest quality you can buy, with affordable prices in many cases and wireless connectivity.

Recently, Nintendo also talked about one of the new weapon classes in Splatoon 3, the bow, one of the juiciest new features in Splatoon 3, which allows you to shoot three arrows at the same time.
The more weapon classes, the more different ways to play and the more strategies. Now it remains to be seen the new game modes and the single player mode. We’re under the impression that if Nintendo does a Nintendo Direct-style presentation this “non-E3” June, Splatoon 3 will be one of the stars.
