Splatoon 3, Nintendo’s acclaimed team-based shooter for the Nintendo Switch, delivered another community-driven spectacle this past weekend with its highly anticipated annual event—Frosty Fest 2026.
Developed by Nintendo, Splatoon 3 continues to captivate players worldwide with its unique blend of ink-splat warfare and engaging multiplayer content.
Frosty Fest, an official Splatfest, stands as one of the highlights in the Splatoon competitive calendar, offering players the chance to rally behind themed teams and battle for in-game supremacy. The 2026 edition of Frosty Fest invited players to answer a timely question: "Who do you spend the holidays with?" Participants had the opportunity to join one of three teams—Team Friends, Team Family, or Team Solo—each representing a different vision of holiday celebration.
Throughout the event, thousands of players clashed across Splatoon 3’s vibrant arenas, painting the battlefield in their team’s colors and gathering points through victories, popularity, and other in-game metrics. When the ink finally settled, Team Solo emerged as the champion of Frosty Fest 2026.
After tallying the collective efforts of the global Splatoon 3 community, Nintendo confirmed Team Solo's victory via official event recap channels.
In summary, the data-driven decision reflected the team's dominance across various scoring categories, including the proportion of wins and player participation rates.
Nintendo thanked all players for their spirited involvement, highlighting the dynamic engagement that has defined the Splatoon franchise since its debut. A Nintendo spokesperson remarked in a post-event statement that the championship was hard-fought, with each team demonstrating passion and energy.
Ultimately, Team Solo claimed the top spot, while Team Friends and Team Family delivered strong performances and contributed to the festive atmosphere.
The spokesperson extended congratulations to Team Solo and acknowledged the enthusiasm of all Splatfest competitors. Splatoon 3 continues to be a key part of Nintendo Switch’s robust multiplayer lineup.
Since its launch, the title has achieved impressive sales milestones and maintained an active player base, thanks in part to regular content updates and special events like Frosty Fest.
Splatfests remain a central feature of the Splatoon experience, providing players meaningful ways to connect through friendly competition and celebrate shared fandom. Looking back at Frosty Fest 2026, Nintendo and the Splatoon 3 community have once again proven that well-designed online events keep players engaged well after initial release.
