Nintendo has revealed the pricing for the single player title Splatoon Raiders which launches on 23rd July. Nintendo previously said it was pricing physical copies of games at a higher price than digital and it has held true to this as Splatoon Raiders on the Nintendo Switch 2 will be $50 for the digital edition of the game via the Nintendo eShop and $60 for a physical copy of the intriguing title at retail.
Splatoon Raiders pricing for Nintendo Switch 2 will be $50 digital & $60 physical
Looks awesome! Big lover of singleplayer campaign of splatoon, I enjoy salmon run even more this looks like the mix of both. I’m defenetly getting this once I have a switch 2
$50 for a first party Nintendo Switch 2 game? Easy pickup!
Are they embarrassed by this game or something? Shadow drop announcements, no direct coverage, lower price point. Is this game like 3 hours long or something?
Nintendo: * looks at pokemon direct* wha?….2027? WELP * starts packing up bags to move to next year because of GTA6*
They didn’t “shadow-drop” it. They released it on the Nintendo Today App.
They didn’t exactly shadow-drop it. They released the info on the Nintendo Today App, which is where a lot of their announcements are being made… including ones you’d think would have been in a dedicated Direct, such as, for example, Mario Paint coming to NSO and getting mouse capability on the Switch 2.
Nintendo haters in shambles rn
THIS is how it should’ve been- cheaper if you go the digital route. I don’t mind paying a little extra for physical if it means I actually have control over what I do with it (secondhand sale, lend to a friend, etc.).
I always thought Splatoon looked awesome, but never picked it up. (And I was a dedicated Wii U gamer.) I’m just not that into multi-player focused games. Pumped to check this out.
Pricing seems surprisingly fair. We’ll have to see how full this experience is to rule out modern Nintendo management from just finding a way to charge $50+ for story DLC.
