Hori has been behind some of the best Nintendo Switch 2 accessories in the handheld's year-long lifespan where design is concerned, and this new Splatoon Raiders range has cemented that fact in my Ninty-loving noggin'.
Announced via Hori's official X (Twitter) page on June 3, 2026, a new influx of goodies is on its way to Japan fans, including a Wireless HoriPad Turbo, a gaming headset, a pair of earphones, a USB Hub stand, an all-in-one storage bag, and a shoulder bag all coated in orange and green splotches to tie into Splatoon's first outing on the Switch 2. As of typing, there are sadly no signs of US and UK availability quite yet. But if you don't mind being subject to the likelihood of customs fees, you can pre-order it starting from $26.07 (Amazon) from Amazon Japan, and I'm ink-ing towards doing just that.

As the resident gaming headset connoisseur of the hardware team, I was immediately drawn to the wired pair of cups as part of this set. It's available for $32.62 at Amazon Japan, and appears to be just a Splatoon Raiders re-skin of a wired headset that Hori already has in its repertoire, but as a Splatoon fan, I can't help but gawk over the design choices.
The entire pair has a plastic translcuent plastic chassis which gives it a retro-appeal, but I'm more obsessed with the fact that the inside of the earcups features orange and green splotches that match the rest of the range. Some pairs, like the Turtle Beach Airltie Fit, just leave the interior blank, but I love that the left and right icons are more easily identifiable via the very on-brand squid and octopus designs. Even the side of the earcups themselves are orange and green to correspond with the designs.
According to the official Hori website, the headset also includes 40mm-sized audio drivers, and on-board controls including a mic mute button and volume options. If you aren't a headset fan, Hori has also included a pair of in-ear phones available for $26.07 at Amazon Japan. These include a similar-looking translucent chassis, but go the extra mile to include orange and green fin details that remind me of Big Man's massive fins. Which I assume was the intention.
If you aren't in the market for a new Nintendo Switch headset, the range includes a $32.62 (Amazon Japan) Hori Splatoon Raiders Shoulder Pouch Bag, which can be attached to your back or held like any case with a carrying handle. The bag can store your Nintendo Switch 2 handheld, along with additional accessories like the AC adapter and up to 6 physical game carts.
Essentially, it's a Splatoon Raiders version of the Hori Gengar and Mimikyu Adventure Pack, and I'm all for it. The adventure pack has been a neat way to take my handheld to my friend's house, as its straps are easy to adjust to my liking. I've even used it as a handbag, and would honestly do the same with this version, as I adore the little shell and sea-life designs found on the front.
The shoulder bag is not big enough to fit the Switch 2 dock, but that's likely what the new $35.89 (Amazon Japan) Splatoon Raiders Storage Bag is for. It shares a similar design to that of the shoulder bag but in an all-in-one form factor, much like the Turtle Beach PlayTrek 2-in-1 case. It also features a patterned lining featuring Splatoon squid and octos, and it looks like it has plenty of space to store the $32.62 (Amazon Japan) Hori Splatoon Raiders USB Stand, also part of the new Hori range.
Of all the items, unfortunately, the Splatoon Raiders Wireless Hori Pad TURBO cannot be shipped to the US, according to its Amazon Japan product page. Which is a shame, as it's definitely one of the shining stars of this incoming set.
Its design isn't unique, as it has the same orange and green splotches of ink across its faceplate as the rest of the items I've shown today. However, I'm a huge fan of the fact that Hori made sure the d-pad and the underside of the right stick match the colors found across the controller. The starfish and seaweed designs are also draped across the pad, which ties it into the particularly nautical theme of Splatoon Raiders.
The official Amazon Japan listings for all of these items state that they're expected to launch on July 31, 2026, just days after the new Splatoon Raiders game drops on the Nintendo Switch 2. I can only hope that by then, Hori Europe and Hori USA decide to unleash these across the pond so I can splash my cash without any customs fees lurking beneath the waves.
