Switch 2 ratings surface
Two first‑party Switch 2 ratings have been spotted in Europe for Splatoon Raiders and Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave, signaling those titles are at least heading toward release. (nintendolife.com) (gamerant.com). Splatoon Raiders specifically received a PEGI 7 rating on its European eShop listing, and Switch 2 eShop charts on April 12 show titles like Super Mario Bros. Wonder Upgrade Pack appearing in Switch 2 storefronts. (gonintendo.com) (gonintendo.com).
European Nintendo listings now show final age ratings for two unreleased Switch 2 games: Splatoon Raiders and Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave. (nintendolife.com) Nintendo Life reported on April 12 that Splatoon Raiders now carries a PEGI 7 rating and Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave has been updated from a provisional label to PEGI 12 on Nintendo’s European pages. (nintendolife.com) Splatoon Raiders’ European eShop listing is where the PEGI 7 rating surfaced, according to GoNintendo’s April 11 report. The site said the game still was not listed on PEGI’s own public database at the time. (gonintendo.com) PEGI is the Pan European Game Information system, the age-rating board used across much of Europe. A listed PEGI rating usually means a game’s store page has moved beyond an early “rating pending” placeholder. (pegi.info ) (nintendolife.com) Nintendo’s own game pages still show broad release windows rather than dates. The Nintendo UK page for Splatoon Raiders says “TBD,” while the Nintendo UK page for Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave says only “2026.” (nintendo.com 1) (nintendo.com 2) That leaves the ratings as one of the clearest public signs yet that both projects are still moving through Nintendo’s release pipeline. Neither page, as of April 12, includes a launch day. (nintendolife.com) (nintendo.com 1) (nintendo.com 2) The two games also fill different gaps in Nintendo’s current Switch 2 lineup. Splatoon Raiders is Nintendo’s first Splatoon spinoff and is billed by Nintendo as an adventure starring a mechanic on the Spirhalite Islands alongside Deep Cut. (nintendo.com 1) (nintendo.com 2) Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave is the next main Fire Emblem entry for Switch 2, and Nintendo says it is set around the “Heroic Games” and launches sometime in 2026. (nintendo.com) (nintendo.com) Separate storefront activity points to Nintendo continuing to build out the Switch 2 digital catalog. GoNintendo’s April 12 eShop chart roundup showed Super Mario Bros. Wonder Upgrade Pack and Super Mario Bros. Wonder – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park among the platform’s top-charting listings. (gonintendo.com) Nintendo’s official store page for that Wonder upgrade pack confirms it is a paid Switch 2 add-on tied to the original Super Mario Bros. Wonder and adds Bellabel Park content, new boss courses, and extra playable characters including Rosalina and Co-Star Luma. (nintendo.com) For now, the ratings do not confirm release dates, preorders, or launch months. They do show that two of Nintendo’s named first-party Switch 2 games have advanced from placeholder status to something more concrete on European storefronts. (nintendolife.com)
