The highly anticipated release of Splatoon Raiders is nearly upon us, and the big question that most fans will have is how long it’ll take to play through this game. Unlike the mainline Splatoon games, Splatoon Raiders is a spin-off single-player-focused title with more missions and story content than its multiplayer counterparts.
But how much longer is it than previous games in the series? We have the answers for how long it’ll typically take a player to beat Splatoon Raiders.
How long does it take to beat Splatoon Raiders?
According to early reviews, Splatoon Raiders will take around 15-20 hours to complete a typical campaign run. But for completionists who want to tackle everything that this game has to offer, the playtime can double and reach around 40 hours.
In comparison, Splatoon 3’s story mode takes only around 8 hours to finish. This means Splatoon Raiders is the longest game in the franchise. Of course, previous titles in this colorful series had competitive modes that could add hundreds of hours, but we still think Splatoon Raiders’ 15-hour campaign and a ton of endgame adventures feel perfect for both new and returning players looking for ink-splatting fun.
But why does Splatoon Raiders take nearly double the playtime just to complete everything? Well, Splatoon Raiders has a myriad of short raids to tackle, and a ton of side content that isn’t necessary to finish to roll credits. And since the goal of the game is to increase your gear over time, there’s seemingly no end to how you can customize your build to prepare for future raids.
Speaking of fun, we have a list of the best games to play before or after Splatoon Raiders if you’re looking for a similar type of game.
