Japanese Twitter users have brought to attention (via Siliconera) some of the cheating which has been going on in Splatoon 3 even getting the term チーター (“Cheater”) trending on the social network. The issue revolves around a small number of players who have been continuously firing specials without having to wait for their special weapon meter to fill up. It is not clear whether the it is caused by an unpatched bug or some form of hacking, but the issue seems to be primarily with the Tetra Missiles and Reef Slider specials. This has prompted Japanese Twitter users to call on Nintendo to fix the issue.
