All We Know About Salmon Run in Splatoon 3
Yesterday’s Nintendo revealed some new details about Salmon Run, Spltoon’s Horde mode. This was via a thread. Some players initially criticized the Splatoon3 manner for being too similar to Splatoon2. However, Nintendo now has some exciting details about the changes that it’s made.
Here’s a summary of all that Nintendo has to say about Salmon Run Next Wave in.
It’s open 24/7
The most anticipated update to Salmon Run in Splatoon3 will be its new hours. Nintendo has also confirmed that players can access Salmon Run shifts throughout the day. Although this might violate labor laws, I will not take it down.
Grizz Did Some Renovating
Salmon Run’s lobby was in Splatoon2 and was cramped with drab fishing equipment. Grizz headquarters in Splatoon3 has received a little makeover that gives it more space and less dreadful lighting. It looks like players will be able to roam freely within the lobby to speak to Mr. Grizz and retrieve their bonus payment. The back has lockers, but it isn’t clear if these will work like the lockers in the multiplayer lobby or if they are decorative.
In a small break room, players can warm up while waiting for Salmon Run sessions. The Nintendo Twitter account showed that the break room had an egg basket for practicing egg throws and Salmonid-esque practice dolls that could drop eggs.
Heftier Paychecks
Splatoon2 offered some Grizzco-exclusive clothing for players who often play Salmon Run, but Splatoon3 takes Salmon Run paychecks to a new level. Fish Scales are a new currency that allows players to earn fish scales. It seems to be available in bronze, silver, and gold variations.
You can trade in Fish Scales for four types of items: work suits and decorations, stickers, banners, or stickers. Stickers and embellishments can be used to customize your profile. The game’s newest addition is work suits. Players can purchase different colors from Salmon Run’s traditional fishing outfits to wear during shifts. If you’re a low-paid laborer, you can even fight Salmonids wearing a baby pink fishing outfit.
