As the event unfolded, the competition proved incredibly tight.

At the halfway point, Team Ghost narrowly led with 33.58% of the points, while Team Zombie and Team Skeleton trailed closely, earning 33.20% and 33.22% respectively.

The minor differences between teams demonstrated the continued enthusiasm and intensity Splatoon 3 Splatfests inspire in the community. Ultimately, after an eventful second half, it was Team Zombie that emerged triumphant, securing victory by excelling in two out of the three main battle categories—Open and Pro.
