Nintendo is throwing a Salmon Run showdown this weekend. The Splatoon 3 Golden Egg Feast 2026 tournament takes place on Saturday, November 7, running from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm PT, with players competing for prizes in a 120-minute finals session.

The format is Top Score Salmon Run: most Golden Eggs across four shifts, plus most scale points in a single shift. Players register through Tournament Manager in the SplatNet 3 app inside the Nintendo Switch App, in Solo, Pair, Trio or Team divisions of one to four players. Registration opened October 26 and closes at 9:30 am PT on November 7.

Thirty winners will be named — ten Grand Prize, ten First Prize and ten Second Prize winners, split across the four divisions. Each Grand Prize winner takes home a Splatoon 3 themed gaming chair, an acrylic trophy, a backpack, a hip pack and a pin set. Everyone eligible who takes part also receives 50 My Nintendo Platinum Points.

To play you'll need a Nintendo Switch system, a copy of Splatoon 3, a Nintendo Account and a Nintendo Switch Online membership. The stage, supplied weapons and King Salmonid are revealed in Tournament Manager within a week of the event.
