If you’ve played Splatoon 3 at all, you probably already know how important weapons are to your success on the battlefield. Whether you’re rolling over long swaths of terrain with a Splat Roller or taking out enemies with the precision shots of the Splat Charger, it’s important to pick a weapon that fits your playstyle and plays to your team’s strengths. If you’re planning on playing in a coordinated setting, it’s even more important to know your chosen weapon inside and out.
Before you can use a weapon in any multiplayer match, you have to unlock it in the Ammo Knights in-game shop. Doing so requires Sheldon Licenses, which in turn requires you to play plenty of Turf War and Anarchy Battle on your way to becoming the freshest fighter. Weapons are also locked behind levels, so you’ll need to reach a certain level before you can buy some of the game’s most unique weapons. If you’re looking for how high you’ll need to get to unlock your favorite, you’ve come to the right place.
