Splatoon Raiders will have its own Nintendo Direct later this June

Splatoon 3 is also getting a Splatoon Raiders Splatfest.

During the Nintendo Direct June 2026 presentation, we got another look at Splatoon Raiders, but it was just an appetizer to a much bigger presentation announced for later in June 2026. We’ll be getting another Direct specifically dedicated to Splatoon Raiders. Splatoon 3 is also getting Raiders-themed Splatfest in July 2026 to get players hyped for the new game.

Check out the full trailer announcing the details of the upcoming Splatoon Raiders Direct and the Splatoon 3 Splatfest from Nintendo Direct June 2026. The Splatoon Raiders Nintendo Direct will run on June 30, 2026.

Splatoon Raiders continues to look like an exciting spin on our favorite Nintendo third-person ink shooter, and the Direct announced for June will have plenty more to show. We’ve already learned that it has four-player online and local play co-op, extensive player cosmetic and gameplay customization, and copious amounts of Splatoon 3’s musical group Deep Cut.

We also learned Splatoon Raiders is releasing in July 2026, and there’s a Splatfest in Splatoon 3 ahead of it, so stay tuned to the Splatoon Raiders topic for any news that comes out of the next Direct later this June.
