A Deep Cut From Splatoon 3 May Hold A Clue To Splatoon Raiders’ Story…And Why The World Is Ruled By Squids

A new Splatoon spin-off, Splatoon Raiders, may expand the series’ lore beyond Splatoon 3’s post-human setting.

The story sends Deep Cut — Shiver, Frye, Big Man — and the player to the Spirhalite Islands after discovering a treasure map.

After crashing there, the group must survive Salmonid attacks while searching for treasure, hinting at a more prominent role for the enemies.

The article suggests the game could deepen worldbuilding around the Salmonids and clarify Deep Cut’s place in Splatoon’s future.
