Far-Out Station

Far-Out Station is a stage in the Octo Expansion.

Gameplay
When the player begins the stage, they land on a spawn point of a replica Port Mackerel. The player has to play a match of Rainmaker against a team of sanitized Octolings. Throughout the level the player encounters Octolings using Octo shots with s and Octolings using Octarian  Hero Rollers with s.

The player can find the Rainmaker on their pedestal and have to break the barrier and grab the weapon. They may choose different paths to the enemy pedestal but the Octolings will always Super Jump to or come out of hiding at a fixed location when agent 8 comes close to that spot and like in online games, Octolings may re-spawn after a while after being splatted.

One Octoling with the Octoshot lands on the small "L" shaped container near the first open area, as well as an Octoling wielding the Roller near the enemy's Sponge Block. A Splash Wall activates on the most right corridor when the player comes close to it while going through the middle corridor makes another Roller wielding Octoling Super Jump. Choosing the left corridor ends with another Splash Wall.

An Octoling with an Octoshot Super Jumps in when approaching from the end of the left corridor, as well as another one on the containers in the middle of the second open area. Choosing the right corridor to the goal makes another Splash Wall activate while the player can also choose to avoid it and take the left corridor or climb the Sponge Block on top of the containers, which Pearl suggests. More enemies spawn the closer you get to the goal but climbing it ultimately clears the stage.
