Splatoon Raiders gets a release date: July 23 on Switch 2

Nintendo’s Splatoon spin-off is locked in for **July 23 on Switch 2**. It’s primarily single-player, but it also supports **co-op (up to 3 players)**.
What it means for gamers: Switch 2’s 2026 lineup just got a real tentpole date, and Splatoon fans finally have something new that isn’t “another season.†Also: co-op in a Splatoon-ish game means friend groups will immediately test whether “teamwork†is real or just a marketing word.
