Two Switch 2 ratings spotted
European ratings boards reportedly listed two first‑party Switch 2 games — Splatoon Raiders and Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave — a common precursor to public announcements for console software. (nintendolife.com) Those ratings activity signals that first‑party software is moving closer to launch disclosure even without a formal Nintendo event. (nintendolife.com)
Two unreleased Nintendo Switch 2 games from Nintendo — Splatoon Raiders and Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave — have picked up European age ratings on Nintendo storefront pages. (nintendolife.com) Nintendo Life reported that Splatoon Raiders now shows a PEGI 7 rating, while Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave was updated from a provisional label to PEGI 12 on Nintendo’s European pages. PEGI is the Pan European Game Information system used to classify games by age in Europe. (nintendolife.com) Nintendo’s own current listings line up with the broader release picture: Splatoon Raiders is still marked “TBD,” and Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave is still scheduled for 2026. Nintendo’s United Kingdom store pages for both games show those release windows today. (nintendo.com 1) (nintendo.com 2) Ratings matter because publishers usually need final or near-final content descriptions before a game can be sold through major digital stores. A switch from “to be determined” to a numbered PEGI age band is often one of the last public paperwork steps before a date, preorder, or marketing push. (tech.yahoo.com) (finalweapon.net) That does not guarantee an immediate launch. Nintendo announced Splatoon Raiders about 10 months ago as the first Splatoon spinoff for Switch 2 and said more information would be shared later, while Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave was introduced in September 2025 with only a 2026 window. (nintendo.com 1) (nintendo.com 2) The two games also fill different roles in Nintendo’s lineup. Splatoon Raiders is an action-adventure spinoff starring a “Mechanic” exploring the Spirhalite Islands with Deep Cut, while Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave is a turn-based tactical role-playing game from the long-running strategy series. (nintendo.com 1) (nintendo.com 2) The timing stands out because Nintendo’s published 2026 software calendar still leaves room for more first-party dates. Nintendo’s own 2026 roundup has already named titles including Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream and Rhythm Heaven Groove, but not final dates for these two games. (nintendo.com) So the practical takeaway is narrow but useful: Nintendo has not announced release dates for either game, but two first-party Switch 2 listings have moved one step closer to that point. Until Nintendo says more, the ratings are the clearest public sign that both projects are still advancing through launch prep. (nintendolife.com) (nintendo.com)
