Splatoon isn’t just about firing ink at other players, there’s a story mode to go along with the interesting world that’s been built, and Splatoon 3 expands on the neon dream. Throughout the game, you’ll come across several familiar faces from the previous entries in the series, along with brand new characters. One great example is Agent 3, who’s identity may seem like a mystery at first. So, who is Agent 3 in Splatoon 3? The answer may surprise you.
Splatoon 3 Agent 3 Identity Explained
If you keep hearing everyone refer to Agent 3, but can never seem to find them, it’s because Agent 3 is you. But wait—how is that possible? Wasn’t there another Agent 3? Well, yes, but that’s where it gets a bit complicated.
The Inkling from Splatoon was originally Agent 3, a new recruit for the Squidbeak Splatoon and also represented the player character. However, during the events of Splatoon 2, they’re missing; it isn’t until the Octo Expansion that Agent 3 becomes a separate character.
Following the events of Splatoon 3, you—the player—become the new Agent 3, and the original Agent 3 becomes the new captain of the Squidbeak Splatoon. So, in that sense, Agent 3 works almost like a title, always getting filled by your newly created character.
Now you know who Agent 3 is in Splatoon 3; it was you all along. It’s a neat and creative way of tying the series together. For more on Splatoon 3, get a look at 7-eleven and Splatoon’s food collaboration in Japan. Afterwards, hop into a game after you’ve learned how to level up fast.
