Splatoon Raiders is scheduled for which Nintendo console?

Splatoon Raiders is scheduled for the Nintendo Switch 2.

Nintendo announced the game as a console exclusive for its newer system, rather than for the original Nintendo Switch or an earlier platform. The release date was set for July 23, 2026, making it part of the Switch 2's first wave of dedicated software.

The platform choice reflects the game's position as a new Splatoon spin-off with a single-player-focused adventure, explorable islands, customizable equipment, and cooperative play for up to four people. Nintendo's official materials consistently identify Nintendo Switch 2 as the system required to play it.

The most likely mix-up is with the original Switch, because Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 3 were released for that console family. Splatoon Raiders is different: its announced home is Nintendo Switch 2, not GameCube, Nintendo 3DS, Wii U, or the first-generation Switch.
