Nintendo unveils Switch 2-exclusive Splatoon spin-off advertisement via its official application, underscoring its determination to persuade users to download Nintendo's software.
Heads Up, Gamers! 🎉 Nintendo's rocked our world with some juicy news about Splatoon Raiders, a thrilling new spin-off game in the Splatoon franchise, and it's an exclusive for the Nintendo Switch 2! 🎮👀
As for those of you who've got their noses buried in the Nintendo Today app every day, you might've already caught wind of this exciting announcement. But for those left in the dark (like the undisclosed Spiralite Islands in the game's setting), Nintendo's also dropped a trailer on YouTube to give us a taste of what's to come.
The mini-trailer presents a gripping storyline, with our player-made Inkling mechanic exploring the "Spiralite Islands" alongside some familiar faces from the Splatoon 3 crew, Deep Cut, including the awesome Big Man. While the gameplay glimpses are brief, it appears to be a survival and base-building game set on a deserted island. 🏝️
No definite release date's been set for this bad boy, but Nintendo's confirmed more details will drop during the next Nintendo Direct, which history suggests might be happening very soon, like in June, every year since 2012! 📅
