Splatoon 3 update out now (version 6.0.2), patch notes
Nintendo has just released a new update for Splatoon 3, bringing us to version 6.0.2.
Two main issues are being addressed here: first is that players who did not receive their proper rewards following the latest Big Run should now be able to obtain them (update 6.0.1 also tried addressing this issue, but was unfortunately unsuccesful). Second is that the Splattercolor Screen special has been adjusted to make its visual effects less intense, as many members in the community were experiencing severe discomfort from it. A few other small fixes are also included.
Here’s the full rundown of the update:
Splatoon 3 update out now (version 6.0.2), patch notes
Fixes to Multiplayer
- Adjusted the change in color when affected by the Splattercolor Screen to make it more natural. The screen brightness of the effect itself has also been dimmed.
Fixes to Salmon Run
- Made it possible for those who participated in the Big Run held from 12/2 to 12/4 and did not properly receive the decorations or badges for their scores to acquire the decorations and badges they should have received.
- You can acquire them by entering the lobby after applying this update.
Other Fixes
- Fixed an issue that sometimes caused a communication error to occur when players who have seen the news about the start of a new season and players who have not seen it communicate in the Shoal.
Note: Compatible with Ver. 6.0.1 and Ver. 6.0.0 battle replays. Not compatible with Ver. 5.2.0 or earlier battle replays.
The Splatoon version 6.0.2 update is now live for all players.
