It has been nearly four years since Nintendo launched Splatoon 3, but fans finally have a new title to look forward to. Preorders are live for Splatoon: Raiders, which is officially confirmed for a July 23 release. This Switch 2 exclusive promises a departure from its predecessors, offering a single-player focused experience where players battle hordes of Salmonids while searching the mysterious Spirhalite Islands for treasure.
Choosing Your Splatoon: Raiders Edition
Players can choose between two different formats for the upcoming launch. While there are no specific preorder bonuses or special editions currently announced, both versions provide the same core gameplay experience.
- Physical Edition ($60): This version includes the full game data on the cartridge, following the standard for most first-party Switch 2 physical releases.
- Digital Code ($50): A more budget-friendly option for those who prefer to skip the physical media.
Preorders for both versions are available now through retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop. Digital copies can also be purchased directly via the Nintendo eShop.
New Splatoon: Raiders Amiibo Figures Arriving
Alongside the game, Nintendo has unveiled a trio of new Splatoon: Raiders Amiibo figures based on characters from this new entry in the series. These figures are expected to be highly sought after by collectors and fans alike.
The collection features members of the in-game musical group, Deep Cut, which players will encounter during their journey. The trio includes:
- Frye
- Shiver
- Big Man
