Eggstra Work is an upcoming special event mode in Splatoon 3. The mode was revealed on social networks on 20 February 2023.[2][1] 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 will follow the same pattern as regular Salmon Run shifts, occurring on regular Salmon Run stages, though players will 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 will be the same for all teams, allowing players to learn and optimize their strategies.
Rewards
At the end of the Eggstra Work event, exclusive locker stickers will be awarded based on the highest team-wide Golden Egg total the player achieved in any one 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%, or top 50% of scores. All players will receive a basic version of the sticker.[3]
