Splatoon Raiders Review: A Horror-Themed Evolution of Splatoon 3

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A review of the new game "Splatoon Raiders" for the Switch 2 highlights its evolution of the "Splatoon 3" Salmon Run mode into a standalone experience. The game shifts focus to a solo player, the Mechanic, who mines treasure on the Spirhalite Islands to combat Splatsville's debt, encountering mutated and horrifyingly designed Salmonids. Despite its "E for Everyone" rating, the game is described as a cute survival horror with a Hereditary-inspired soundtrack and a muted color palette, offering a deceptively simple yet rewarding gameplay loop of raiding islands, upgrading gear, and customizing a sea-based homebase.
