Beat Story Mode

Hero Mode is the single-player story mode campaign of Splatoon 3 entitled 'Return of the Mammalians' where you'll stop the Octarians from accomplishing their evil intentions.

The missions are played by accessing kettles that are covered with grates which requires you to shoot them with ink to open.

Not all kettles have to be completed to beat Story Mode. Accomplishing the kettles that are essential is only half of what you need to achieve to get 100-percent completion.

Complete All Stages

A major factor in achieving 100-percent completion is by beating all 74 story mode levels or kettles in Hero Mode and the bosses for each level.

Completing every single kettle will unlock you the bonus stage: After Alterna. Head to the secret kettle found in Future Utopia Island to access it.

Collect All Collectibles

Collectibles are items ranging from Sunken Scrolls, Sardinium, Gold Records, Decorations, Food Tickets, and Stickers.

Exploring Areas of Interest which are marked as green on your map also have hidden collectibles in them. Smallfry will generally guide you to them, but there will be times that you have to ink the area to pinpoint the exact location.

You can always check the upper left corner of your map screen to confirm which collectibles have not been found yet.

List of Collectibles in each Site
Sunken Scrolls	Sardinium	Gold Records
Decorations	Food Tickets	Stickers

Survey All Sites

Along with finding collectibles and clearing stages, you must also explore every inch of each site to fill out the map.

Since there are certain parts of each map that cannot be easily reached, we recommend inking every part of the stage to compensate.

How to Survey All Sites

Beat All Stages Using Each Weapon for the Stage

Replaying all stages with each weapon available for that level will contribute to the 100-percent achievement.

Be sure to familiarize yourself with each weapon as not all weapons are convenient to use for each challenge in the stage.
