Splatoon aficionados are in for a treat this year. Not only was the adored city of Inkopolis introduced to the game via the Splatoon 3 Expansion Pass, but the game will also receive a significant content upgrade. Big Run will occur once more, and a brand new King Salmonid will emerge at some time during your turn. Of course, the material that players are most excited about is everything that will be included in the Fresh Season 2023 upgrade. With so much excitement surrounding this update, many anxious fans are asking when the Splatoon 3 Fresh Season 2023 will begin.

Start date for Splatoon 3 Fresh Season 2023

While the Splatoon Twitter account has specified that Fresh Season 2023 will commence on March 1, this is only for Europe. Because Europe is ahead, users in North America can anticipate the update to arrive a few hours earlier than expected. This has happened in prior game updates, so we can anticipate it to happen again here. Fresh Season 2023 is set to premiere at 4 p.m. PT/6 p.m. CT/7 p.m. ET, while it will commence at midnight in the United Kingdom.

What to look forward to in Fresh Season 2023

New Season 2023 is a significant upgrade to the game. As a result, you can anticipate plenty of material to tide you over until the next release. Fresh Season will feature a new catalog, two new levels, including the return of Splatoon 2’s Manta Maria, and a slew of new weapon variants to test out. Not to mention the addition of two new abilities to the game: the Kraken Battle and the Super Chump.
