Xtrawave is a Known Occurrence in Salmon Run Next Wave.

Description

An Xtrawave can occur when a user has the Salmometer filled. Playing multiple games in a row (whether the player wins or loses) will increase the meter, and the more players with a full meter, the bigger the chance for an Xtrawave.

When an Xtrawave has been chosen to occur, the ending jingle after the third wave gets distorted, and a new wave begins, with the text "Emergency!" displayed on-screen as an alarm blares. A King Salmonid will appear along with other Boss Salmonids.

Losing the Xtrawave does not count as a loss by the game, and the player will still gain points and possibly rank up.

Trivia

• In the results screen, the Xtrawave appears like the other 3 waves, but with "XTRAWAVE" instead of the wave, and the king salmonid instead of the Golden Egg count.
• When an Xtrawave is set to occur, the previous wave will read "Wave 3" instead of the regular "Final Wave".
