Eggstra Work is an event mode in Splatoon 3. The mode was revealed on social networks on 20 February 2023.[1][2] Similar to Big Runs, Eggstra Work events are limited-time contests where players compete as part of a team to collect the most Golden Eggs in a set scenario of five waves.
Description
Described as a "team-building event", Eggstra Wave shifts follow the same pattern as regular Salmon Run shifts, occurring on regular Salmon Run stages, though players face five waves instead of the typical three.[3] As the scenario is pre-set, the initial hazard level - as well as order and location of Salmonid spawns - are the same for all teams, allowing players to learn and optimize their strategies. Players can also select which weapon they will wield for the full duration of an Eggstra shift, however, it is imperative to note that multiple players cannot choose the same weapon, and groups of two that queue freelance Eggstra work are not guaranteed to use the weapon they have selected.
The starting Hazard Level is set to 60%. Therefore, wave 1 always has a quota of ten Golden Eggs. Reaching 1.5× or 2× the quota in a wave increases the Hazard Level for the next wave. The amount the Hazard Level increases depends on the number of players within the current shift.[4]
Number of Players | 1.5× Quota | 2× Quota |
---|---|---|
1 player | +5% | +10% |
2 players | +10% | +20% |
3 players | +20% | +40% |
4 players | +30% | +60% |
Before Version 4.0.0, Eggstra Work shifts could only be entered alongside members of the player's friends list, or via a Pool. This led to participants being able to compete in the event without having a full group of four players. Following the update, matchmaking similar to Freelance mode has been implemented to bring each group's member count to four. As such, players are now able to enter the event solo.
Rewards
At the end of the Eggstra Work event, exclusive locker stickers are awarded based on the highest team-wide Golden Egg total the player achieved in any shift. This score is ranked relative to the high scores of all participating players, with different stickers awarded to players whose high score is in the top 5%, top 20%, top 50%, or bottom 50% of scores.[3]
