Splatoon Raiders

2026 · E10+ · Shooter, Adventure

Nintendo EPD Production Group No. 5 · Switch 2

Splat scores of enemies and hunt for treasure in this single-player focused action shooter. Play as a mechanic working with Deep Cut – a trio of swashbuckling musicians – and venture out into the mysterious Spirhalite Islands! Customize your character, kit yourself out with mechanical gadgets and ink-splattering weapons, and take on waves of foes called Salmonids as you raid the islands for salvage. This is mainly a single-player adventure, but you won’t be alone: one member of Deep Cut will raid alongside you in a powerful bot. You can also join with up to three other players online or via local wireless.

The Real Review

Splatoon Raiders is mostly a hit as a single-player action shooter, with the core raiding, gadget tinkering, and ink-splatting gameplay doing the heavy lifting. Deep Cut, especially Shiver and Frye, land well, and the Spirhalite Islands give the adventure enough charm to keep people playing. The weak spots are value, difficulty, and performance: some feel it’s a tough sell at full price, others trip over the challenge balance, and Switch 2 issues come up enough to be noticeable. Multiplayer is liked as a bonus, but the solo raid is the main attraction. If you want a lighthearted Nintendo shooter on Switch 2, it’s worth grabbing, especially if you can wait for a better price.
