A fresh, imaginative spin on everything I love about Splatoon
Platform: Nintendo Switch 2
Edition: Game only
My daughter and I are big Splatoon fans. I originally bought the first game on clearance and barely touched it until I started revisiting old Wii U games. Luckily, I got hooked before Nintendo shut down its multiplayer servers. I skipped Splatoon 2, but by the time Splatoon 3 arrived, my daughter was old enough for us to pair up in Turf Wars and Grizzco missions. Just to get it out of the way, I'll start with my biggest disappointment with Splatoon Raiders: there’s no same-console multiplayer co-op. Multiplayer is available, but the other person needs another Switch 2 and another copy of the game. For a series that lends itself so naturally to family play, that feels like a huge missed opportunity. Once I got past that, however, I found myself loving the game. The story begins with you piloting a helicopter carrying Deep Cut (Shiver, Frye, and Big Man) when it crashes on a group of islands that have mysteriously emerged from Splatoon’s water-covered world. A month later, you're no longer the pilot but “the Mechanic”—a brilliant builder who constructed a giant Hideout Ship. From there, you travel from island to island on raids, battle hordes of Salmonid-like creatures, gather treasure and supplies, and return to the ship to improve your equipment. Raiders keeps the familiar Splatoon combat mechanics...covering the environment in ink, swimming through it, popping up to attack, refilling your tank, and constantly repositioning yourself...but places them inside a very different kind of game. Rather than a series of short competitive matches, it plays more like a 3D action-platformer crossed with a looter-shooter. Defeated enemies drop weapons, and while the familiar categories are still here...shooters, rollers, sloshers, and so on...the individual weapons become loot that you collect and level up. I especially like that they’re presented as creations the Mechanic has assembled from junk and debris found around the islands. They look cobbled together, but in the wonderfully imaginative way you’d expect from Splatoon. There’s also a new gadget system that replaces the usual combination of subweapon and Special. You choose among Speed, Power, and Tactics setups, then equip gadgets with cooldown periods that can help you move, escape danger, or wipe out groups of enemies. You can add parts to improve them, and as the game becomes more intense, it also gives you more tools with which to fight back. The game introduces new movement mechanics without making everything you learned in the earlier games irrelevant. Inking walls, squid jumping, swimming through your own ink, and knowing when to surface all remain important. At different points, however, there are also other new mechaniscs, such as riding a surfboard across water, using a bot to make supercharged jumps, and even riding Big Man after filling the Showstopper gauge. You select a location on the map, launch a raid, search for treasure, complete combat and traversal challenges, and then move on to another area. Some sections feel fairly open, almost like an open-world game, while others lead you along a more defined path, like a rail shooter. Most smaller missions take around five to ten minutes, so it’s easy to play briefly, but difficult to stop after only one. The difficulty also feels just right. You can choose from three difficulty levels at the beginning, and the action becomes noticeably more intense as you progress without becoming frustrating. Bosses may seem intimidating at first, but once you learn their patterns and make better use of your weapons and gadgets, they feel challenging rather than unfair. I was surprised by how much narrative and lore the game contains. The story is lighter than a full-scale adventure game, but it’s more substantial than I expected. Frye, Shiver, and Big Man receive much more dialogue, personality, and involvement than they did when they were introduced in Splatoon 3. You also unlock a treasure-locating bot that carries one member of Deep Cut along with you during missions. Scrolls and research documents reveal more about the islands, the creatures you encounter, and the events that caused this strange new land to emerge. Uncovering these mysteries reminded me of finding the Sunken Scrolls in Splatoon 3’s solo mode. Some entries expand after you defeat enough of a particular enemy, giving the fighting and collecting a narrative purpose beyond simply accumulating items. The Mysterious Shards, ruins, rubble, returning characters, and little jokes throughout all contribute to the atmosphere. The imagination and humor of the original games are still here and seem to be getting better with age. Visually, the game is unmistakably Splatoon, but the tropical islands, water, ink effects, and environmental detail make it feel like a genuine Switch 2 release. I particularly like seeing old kitchen utensils and other human objects scattered throughout the landscape, a subtle continuation of everything the first three games revealed about the origins of Splatoon’s world. I also appreciate the expanded character customization, including details such as hairstyles and eyebrows. Splatoon Raiders is familiar enough that longtime players can immediately use the techniques they already know, but different enough to justify being its own game. It takes the shooting and movement that make Splatoon so much fun and builds an imaginative action-platforming looter-shooter around them. The best review came from my daughter, to whom I gave the game for her 11th birthday. Just minutes after starting, she said, “I think I’m going to love this game,” followed almost immediately by, “Wait, I already love this game.” I’m several decades older than she is, but I can say the same thing.

Fun single player focused Splatoon
Platform: Nintendo Switch 2
Edition: Game only
Very solid Splatoon experience for (mostly) single players. The game is more focused on your character and the trio 'Deep Cut' as they search for treasure after their helicopter goes down on some mysterious islands. The gameplay is very similar to the Salmon Run mode from previous Splatoon games, where you fight waves of enemies to collect power eggs. Each mission earns you experience to level up as well as loot that is either new upgrades, or stuff that can be used to upgrade your weapons and gadgets. There is NO turf war like multiplayer like in previous Splatoon games, no team mode. There is however a 'Help' gimmick that unlocks early in the game that lets you call on other players for help in a mission, letting two actual people come to your mission to help you. You can also decide to jump into a random person's request for help and help them instead, which earns you the same rewards for that mission as the person who asked for the help, and sometimes you also get a bonus for helping. Besides the 'Help' mode, you do have an AI helper in missions, which you can choose from the three different members of 'Deep Cut'. The only real difference between them in the missions in the super move you charge up by gathering power eggs during the missions. The missions themselves are all pretty straight forward. Either get to the end of the mission, clearing out enemies along the way so you can get the level's treasure. Gather enough power eggs from defeating enemies in a set time. Go around defeating enemies without a time limit so charge up your partner's drill so collect a massive crystal. Beat an obstacle course (sometimes times, other times not timed) with a pre selected moveset. Or finally, defeat a massive boss enemy to move the main story along. All in all if you enjoyed the single player modes from previous Splatoon games you will love this game. If you were more interested in the multiplayer modes from the previous games, you probably won't like this as much. The game starts off relatively easy, but does ramp up in challenge as you go along without feeling like hitting a wall. Some of the side challenges can be quite difficult though. Also you do unlock additional difficulty modes later on (spicy and super spicy) which jacks up the health and damage of the enemies but also gives better rewards. Game also has a decent amount of post game content to play through after finishing the main story.

Arguably better than Octo Expansion, Splatoon 3’s main campaign, and the Side Order DLC!
Platform: Nintendo Switch 2 Digital Code
Edition: Game only
I got this game digitally for my brother and he told me that this is his favorite Splatoon game! As for me, I got the game physically since I prefer physical games. Nintendo has been doing an amazing job at pumping out more quality games for Switch 1 and Switch 2, and this game is an example of how they still have that magic touch whenever it comes to developing games! Since Splatoon 1 on the Wii U, I knew that this franchise would be something really special if the developers continued to refine the gameplay and add more content. With Splatoon 2, they did just that by adding Salmon Run, Clam Blitz, and the Octo Expansion DLC. Even though the main campaign in Splatoon 2 was pretty grueling to 100% complete, there were some levels that were really fun to beat! Whenever Splatoon 3 came out, I was kinda shocked since I thought Nintendo would save it as a launch title for the Switch 2. That said, Splatoon 3 felt like the culmination of what the franchise was known for. With the Side Order DLC and a much better main campaign that drew inspiration from Octo Expansion, I thought that Nintendo would wait longer to make another Splatoon game, but instead, we got this incredible spinoff that adds so much depth to the gameplay that I honestly can’t go back to playing Salmon Run on Splatoon 2 & 3 again without feeling restricted and limited to what I can do as the player! Nintendo absolutely knocked it out of the park with this one, and it’s not $70-$80!!! Which is something I appreciate! Splatoon 3’s Salmon Run felt way too intense with how limited you are compared to what this game offers you. On top of that, this game is so much fun to play with friends! You can play almost the ENTIRE game with friends, or you can request for help/go help others at any point during the game (with a few exceptions, but no spoilers). I hope Nintendo continues to add this kind of multiplayer functionality as they release more games during the Switch 2 generation. I can only hope that Nintendo continues to listen to the fans and address the criticisms that they’ve received ever since the Switch 2 was announced and launched last year. With how they’ve handled this game and Rhythm Heaven, I want them to continue winning old fans back while also continuing to bring in new fans! They have come a long way since the late 70’s, and, now that they have a powerful system, I want them to continue being successful, but in a way that benefits them AND us, the fans who have stuck with them. It saddens me that the big-N has made some pretty frustrating decisions over the past year that has made it hard to root for them, but I KNOW that they are MORE than capable of fixing those issues and turning things around for themselves. I’ve seen it time and time again from them. At the end of the day, I’m just a really optimistic fan who wants to see them succeed since they’ve been around since the beginning, and I want them to continue going strong. Anyway, that’s it from me! Thanks for reading all the way! Definitely get this game to support the developers!

More in-depth Splatoon single player!
Platform: Nintendo Switch 2
Edition: Game only
The focus on singleplayer in this game allowed it to be much more developed than previous Splatoon single player modes. Its progression and leveling systems are much more in depth than previous games, allowing for a lot of customization of abilities and playstyles. The multiplayer modes felt a bit less developed due to not being the focus of the game, but I did have fun with it. Overall a very fun game and a good addition to the Splatoon series. Master Mega is my favorite!

Fantastic fun with Cephalopods!
Platform: Nintendo Switch 2
Edition: Game only
This is easily one of the best Switch 2 games at this point in time. At its core it’s is a simple looter shooter with a simple gameplay loop yet with some surprisingly deep customization of your gear to tailor it to your playstyle. You can enjoy it in a multitude of ways like playing by yourself or with friends or even random people online! Its gameplay loop is simple yet highly addictive due to the short nature of the “raids” you jump into and the rewarding nature of the game overall. I highly recommend Splatoon Raiders to everyone and anyone as long as you enjoy a fast and frantic game pace! And even if you don’t Nintendo eases you into it so you might just find a new genre of game to enjoy!

Fresh new take for Splatoon. I really enjoyed this game. Some of the gameplay can be similar but different modes keep it exciting and the grind worth it.

Exceeded my Expectations
Platform: Nintendo Switch 2
Edition: Game only
The allure of the normal Splatoon games has unfortunately alluded me for one reason or another. The online games are very competitive and the single player portions are small and low on fun. Splatoon Raiders, on the other hand, is exactly what Splatoon should have been in the first place, which is a Diablo-like looter that makes you want to go for "just one more run." The levels are pretty small here but that's a good thing. They get right down to business and send you back to your home base to try out newer, stronger gear or upgrade ones you already have. Long story short, if you are on the fence with Splatoon Raiders, just know I was right there as well and this far exceeded my expectations.
