Two qualification spots will be up for grabs at RakuCon, one on each day of the event. Each qualifying team will earn a spot at the Splatoon 3 European Championships 2023 UK and Ireland finals held later this year. More information about the finals will be revealed at a later date.
Signups for the tournament will be taken on the day itself at the Graphene Suite area of the Pendulum Hotel, with availability on a first-come-first-served basis. Casual play will also be available outside of the tournament timings.
For players not in full teams who attend the event and wish to compete, we will endeavour to match any Inklings and Octolings for hire with others looking to create a team, if there is space in the tournament. The full tournament ruleset, including stages and game modes, will be provided at the event at the tournament desk.
