"Guess I'm buying a Switch 2 after all." Nintendo has finally done it. After years of speculation and community wishlisting, the Splatoon series is branching out into new territory with its first-ever spin-off: Splatoon Raiders.

Splatoon was completely absent from the Switch 2 launch. Now we know why. Nintendo decided to hold the Switch 2 upgrade for Splatoon 3 until the week after the new console arrived, announcing it Tuesday morning alongside an entirely new spin-off called Splatoon Raiders.

So much so, in fact, that the series' first spinoff, Splatoon Raiders, was just announced today. It's on the way in addition to a free Splatoon 3 content update for Switch 2 owners as well. But to enjoy all these things to the fullest, well, you'll need a copy of Splatoon 3. Woot has you taken care of with that in mind, thanks to this deal.
