Nintendo has announced a spinoff in its Splatoon franchise, as well as big updates to Splatoon 3 in version 10.0

Titled Splatoon Raiders, the third-person paint slinging shooter spinoff will be released exclusively on the Switch 2. While details are sparse at this early stage, the trailer mentions players will take on the role of “a mechanic” alongside Deep Cut, a fictional band in the Splatoon universe. While the initial launch will be exclusive to Nintendo’s newest handheld, the trailer says that “research is still underway,” implying there may be future releases on additional consoles.
