FAQ
Wiki FAQ
Quick answers to the most common questions.
What is Splatoon Raiders?
A single-player-focused Splatoon spin-off exclusive to Nintendo Switch 2. You play as a mechanic with Deep Cut, raiding the Spirhalite Islands for treasure while fighting Salmonids.
Is co-op available?
Yes. After a short story unlock you can raid with up to three other players via online play or local wireless. See the How to Play Co-op guide for unlock details.
Which languages are supported?
This wiki supports: English, Français, Deutsch, Español. Configure locales in site.meta.json and run npm run generate:i18n.
Do harder difficulties give better loot?
No. Tourist, Raider, and Survivalist change enemy strength, not reward tiers. Pick the difficulty you enjoy and farm the dungeon types that drop what you need.
Where should I start on this wiki?
Begin with Getting Started, then open Weapons and Builds. Use the Raid Checklist tool before tougher story dungeons, and check the Walkthrough hub when you are unsure which island advances the story.
Are there multiple endings or post-game content?
Yes. How to Unlock Endings covers Good, Bad, and secret routes, and the Post-Game Walkthrough lists Hidden Ruins and Bottomless Buffet after credits. Keep Ver 1.1.0 for stable co-op.
