Happy Holidays, Rivals! Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival is back, and better than ever with a new map and gameplay. The event, together with the Gone Nutty for Gifts event, dropped on 18th December 2025, and will be here until 16th January 2026.
Like the previous Jeff’s Winter Splash Festival, the goal is to paint the most of the map in your team’s colours, reminiscent of Splatoon’s Turf War. Each match will last three minutes, and once time is up, whichever team has the most area covered wins! Eliminating others will also paint the area where they were in your team’s colour.
This year’s Splash Festival takes place in the all-new Jeff-Land map, where things are (ironically) heating up with a 4v4v4 player count, an increase from the previous 4v4 format.
Additionally, instead of using his standard kit, Jeff now has an all-new kit that differs depending on which role he picks. Jeff can choose from Painter, Striker and Keeper, which each come with their own respective techniques that he can use to paint the map with. Each role also features new colour variations of Jeff’s Cuddly Fuzzlefin skin.
The rewards available for the event can be found under the Missions tab, and consists of Units, titles, and a spray!
So, what are you waiting for? Join Jeff in the winter festivities and paint the town purple, orange or yellow!
