Returning gear




Other

 * A jukebox of unknown purpose, presumably to change the music in the lobby.
 * More Tableturf Battle Cards.
 * More Locker decorations and stickers, including some that are almost certainly available as Salmon Run rewards.
 * On the cover of the Fresh Season 2023 catalog there also is a gold medal with a salmon on it, and a strange picture composed entirely of black, white, and brown. What's in it is impossible to identify, though it is very likely a new King Salmonid.
