Splatoon 3 pre-orders are rounding the corner to their final week before the next instalment officially launches on September 9. That means your chance to secure a free pin badge, key chain, or gym bag is slimming with every day. Thankfully, we're still seeing plenty of retailers offering these additional goodies, so it's well worth exploring all your options before you dive into the Splatlands.
We've scoured all your favorite retailers' Splatoon 3 pre-order bonuses for the best freebies and delivery schedules available. To get straight to it, though, Inklings and Octolings in the US should be checking out Best Buy's free key chain offer. It's the best freebie on the web right now, and will ship out by release day.
UK splatters have a tougher time ahead of them, there are far more options for pre-order bonuses across the pond with different retailers offering various pins, bags, keyrings, and delivery times as well. While some stores are cutting the £49.99 RRP in the competition, we've found that shipping costs often make up the difference, so we'd recommend heading to either Amazon or Nintendo. The former is offering a £5 discount with a free pin badge (but may arrive a little later depending on delivery to your location), whereas the latter is offering both a badge and gym bag with launch day shipping.

What's new in Splatoon 3?
Splatoon 3 builds on the original successful splatting formula with brand new game modes and features and refinements of those offered by previous games. We've seen new Turf War battle stages, moves, and weapons so far, as well as a new campaign mode titled "Return of the Mammalians". Players will take on the role of Agent 3 in this new adventure.
