Nintendo dropped the Splatoon Raiders release date on the Nintendo Today mobile app, revealing a release date of July 23 for the Switch 2 exclusive spin-off. And though it appears to be a single-player-only game, that isn't the case.

Footage shows the game's protagonist, the Mechanic, a customized Inkling or Octoling stranded on the Spirhalite Islands with Splatoon 3's Deep Cut. The trailer also shows off gameplay similar to the PvE Salmon Run from previous titles, along with gear crafting and upgrading mechanics.

The trailer calls it a "single-player-focused" spin-off, but an official press release clarifies that Splatoon Raiders "supports the ability to join with up to three other players online or via local wireless," which hammers home the idea that this is an expanded take on Salmon Run. The official Splatoon X account also confirmed that difficulty "evens out" depending on how many players are involved.

Most details about Cregger’s Resident Evil movie are still secret. Here’s a guide to everything we know about the reboot so far.

In a gaming landscape that feels like it's dominated by sequels, remakes, and remasters, Capcom's new original game, Pragmata, launched recently and got off to a very good start. Capcom said in a news release that the game sold more than 1 million units over its first 48 hours following its release on April 17.

Pragmata is a near-future-set sci-fi action-adventure game focusing on the character Hugh Williams and an robot girl, Diana. Capcom said in its announcement of the sales milestone that Pragmata was developed "by a team of younger Capcom developers" who brought new ideas into the mix.

Capcom said it promoted the game with a range of marketing pushes and offered a playable demo for players to try. Additionally, Capcom said it tried to reach a wider audience by bringing the game to the Switch 2 at launch (it's coming to Switch 2 in Japan and other parts of Asia on April 24). Capcom said its efforts "generated significant momentum" for Pragmata , which helped the game reach 1 million sales in 48 hours.
