Splatoon Raiders’ July 23rd launch day is almost here, so your window to preorder the physical version at a $10 discount is about to close. The digital version is $49.99, and so is the game on cartridge if you preorder at Walmart. Amazon previously honored the preorder discount, but it’s selling the game at full price ($59.99), at least for the moment.
Nintendo announced in March that certain digital Switch 2 games will be $10 cheaper than the physical versions. However, releases like Yoshi and the Mysterious Book and Star Fox both had lengthy preorder phases where both editions sold at the same price. It’s worth jumping on these limited-time offers if physical media means a lot to you.
While Amazon isn’t currently honoring the $10 preorder discount, there’s always a chance it will again before launch day. If you choose to preorder at Amazon, you’ll pay the lowest price offered between when you preorder and when the game releases.
Splatoon Raiders is a new Switch 2-exclusive title with a single-player focus. That’s great because I could never get enough of the campaigns in the mainline Splatoon titles, and its competitive multiplayer is harder to excel at than it seems. However, Raiders has a co-op multiplayer component, so you can team up with up to four players locally or online.
