Following the recent release of Splatoon Raiders<\/a> exclusively for the Switch 2, Nintendo has announced it will be hosting a new themed event in Tetris 99<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you boot up the Switch Online battle royale title between 7th – 10th August 2026, you can earn event points. As usual, once you’ve got 100 event points, you’ll unlock a new theme featuring art, music and Tetrimino designs inspired by the new Splatoon adventure.<\/p>\n

In our review here on Nintendo Life<\/a>, we called Splatoon Raiders the “best single-player Splatoon” with incredibly robust multiplayer options for anyone wanting to splat some Salmonids with family and friends.<\/p>\n

“It looks good, runs fantastically, and you can play practically the whole thing with friends if you wish. Not only that, but Nintendo\u2019s flogging it for a bargain price. It may not push any boundaries within the genre per se, but it\u2019s difficult to find anything negative to say about it, it really is a must-play for almost anyone.”<\/p>\n

In case you missed it, Tetris 99 is currently hosting a limited-time discount on 41 collaborative themes<\/a> until 17th August 2026.<\/p>\n

Will you be booting up Tetris 99 to grab this theme? Let us know in the comments.<\/p>\n
