Splatoon 3 Introduces New Multiplayer Map ‘Mincemeat Metalworks’

Splatoon 3 is looking to close out Nintendo’s summer offerings with a paint-splattering bang, and Nintendo UK has shown off another stage coming to the third paint-blasting multiplayer game.

Called the ‘Mincemeat Metalworks’ (yep, reread it), we hope the stage isn’t as brutal and gory as it sounds! Luckily it isn’t dealing in squids or meat of any kind, but it used to be a Metalworks that created more scrap metal. It seems like the new stages in Splatoon 3 are following a bit of a pattern, with the last one — Undertow Spillway — also being a little bit grey and metallic.

Mincemeat Metalworks, however, is out in the open, but it’s rusted, and left out in the middle of an evaporated ocean and surrounded by a wasteland. Things have gotten a bit rough in the Splatoon world, haven’t they? Good thing we can brighten it up even more with a splash of colour.

Amusingly, some fans have — at a quick glance — misread the title as Minecraft Metalworks on Twitter. Now that is a crossover we’d love to see!

Splatoon 3 launches on 9th September on Switch. How do you think the upcoming game is shaping up? Let us know in the comments!
