The National Student Esports (NSE) body in the UK has announced a partnership with Nintendo to run a Splatoon 3 University Championship over this year.

The initiative is said to be providing students with an array of Splatoon 3 activities, including in-person and online tournaments, alongside a selection of community events during the spring.

The University Championship itself will also be split into two regional events, where teams will compete in a 4v4 Turf War and Anarchy Battle matches, all in the hope of earning a spot in the live final that will be held at the Insomnia Gaming Festival in April. As for the prizes for this tournament, they are yet to be announced.
