Nintendo Switch 2’s extra power is turning first-party games into stable, colorful chaos, with Splatoon Raiders and Donkey Kong Bananza showing how Nintendo can now fill the screen with enemies, effects, and speed without losing the fun.
The Power Tank's base kit is strong enough to carry you through the first few sectors, and the upgrade path only makes it stronger.
Your old Inkling amiibo finally has a purpose again — and you only need to scan each figure once to unlock all four exclusive outfits.
The review states that Splatoon Raiders (Switch 2) has the best single-player campaign in the series. It also highlights the fantastic multiplayer Salmon Run mode.
Nintendo created Splatoon Raiders as a spin-off instead of Splatoon 4 to offer a new entry point into the series with a single-player, roguelite adventure, moving away from the franchise's standard competitive formula. The developers wanted to release non-competitive elements as a standalone game, while continuing to develop competitive gameplay in future titles.
Splatoon Raiders, an exclusive title for Nintendo Switch 2, launches on July 23 with players taking on the role of the Mechanic to help Deep Cut find treasures guarded by Salmonids across the Spirhalite Islands. The game features a robust progression loop, an RPG-esque gear system, and both single-player and online options.
