Doing these skips may be useful for those just looking to finish the story. However, there is a bonus for those brave enough to stick with the old-fashioned linear path.
How to Unlock After Alterna
As mentioned above, many levels and boss fights can be avoided completely inSplatoon 3’s story mode. Doing this may be fine for some, but for completionists andSplatoonbeginners,it would be wise to see all there is on offer.
Seeing through everything the campaign has to offer will be no easy task as levels can be quite tricky to beat. Each level has its own unique challenge anda variety of weapons to test out.
Don’t be afraid to restart a level to pick a weapon that feels more comfortable to use.
Once players have completed every level in theSplatoon 3story mode, a message will pop upsaying a special kettle has appeared.Head to the first area of the campaign to find this new kettle.
Just behind where players spawn, the kettle is sitting atop a small island. Turn 180 degrees from the starting point to see the kettle. Blast the top to open it, andhead inside to play the bonus stage After Alterna. This stage is the hardest challenge in the game and will take every ounce of even the bestSplatoonplayer’s skill set to beat.
Alterna is a huge areafilled with challenging platformingand hordes of enemies to dispose of. Word of warning: each death in After Alterna will not cost the usual 20 to 50 power eggs to continue, the price here is far higher. Losing all lives will result in a hefty 333 power egg price to pick up from the last checkpoint.
Time jumps correctly, and use squid surge for an extra boost across bigger gaps.
Taking the time and having patience is key to completing the final challenge of the campaignand avoiding making mistakes. Players who are skilled enough to beat After Alterna will receive a special customization item to equip their character.
Upon completion of the hard level,Splatoon 3rewards players with a set of bear ears to wear. So keep this in mind when starting another match online; beware of anyone sporting a set of these ears, for they are truly eliteSplatoonplayers.
