Splatoon 3 is the sequel to the competitive fast-paced third-person arcade shooter. The third part will offer you new battle arenas (the old ones will also be) for 4v4 battles and additional weapons (which have never been in the series). In the single player campaign, you will find out what the return of the milk eaters means. Fast-paced new moves help you dodge attacks and cover more distance, while new bow-like weapons let you plop enemies even more effectively.

Splatoon 3's upcoming Splatfest event has been one of the most anticipated that fans of the franchise have been waiting for since the shooter game officially launched a week ago.
The event will be broadcast on September 23, 2022. Unlike previous Splatfest events, the upcoming celebration will allow players to join three factions instead of two.
Each side will have its own theme and the factions will be divided into Gear, Grub и Fun, with the corresponding question: "What would you bring to a deserted island?"
Splatfest will also bring a new type of currency into the mix upon its launch known as Shells (Conch Shells). This resource is exclusive to Splatfest only, and there's a lot that players can do with them in the shooter once they get their hands on it.
Therefore, today's guide will cover what Shells are for and how they can be used in the upcoming Splatoon 3 Splatfest event, as well as how to quickly acquire them.
Guide to Buying Shells in Splatoon 3
As mentioned, Conch Shell is a new type of in-game currency that Splatoon 3 players will be able to earn through the Splatfest event itself. The resource is not too difficult and can be earned very easily by simply participating in the Splatfest Weekend events.
Acquired shells can be used for two main purposes, the first and most obvious of which would be to cash them out for items and rewards at a unique merchant. They can also be used to calculate the final winner in an event Splatfest, the side with the most shells in their inventory will be crowned the winner in the event.
However, before players get to collecting shells in Splatoon 3, they will first have to side with one of the three factions once the Splatfest event starts. After swearing allegiance to either side, playing PvP modes such as Turf War, Tri-Color Turf War, or even Salmon Run will allow players to level up their Catalog as well as earn Conch Shells.
Winning matches, especially the first wins of the day, will provide a significant amount of experience, which will help players earn Conch Shells faster.
Using shells in Splatoon 3
After receiving a large number of shells in Splatoon 3, players will need to return to the center of Splatsville and approach Shell Out Machine. During the Splatfest event, the machine will allow players to cash in all their shells and get their hands on some amazing rewards.
However, the rewards you get your hands on will be RNG based. For one shell, players will receive a random reward from the gift machine.
It's important to note here that the Conch Shells that players acquire during Splatfest are limited to the event itself, and the currency will disappear once the festival ends. Hence, fans are advised to cash out shells while the event is still alive.
