{{quote|I'm not going to sugarcoat it - there are [[Salmonid]]s everywhere. Just stay focused on the task at hand, and you'll get through. I hope you had your coffee…|[[Mr. Grizz]] at the start of a standard Big Run wave}}

'''Big Run''' is an [[event]] mode in {{S3}}. The mode was first announced in the [[Nintendo Direct#Splatoon 3 Direct|''Splatoon 3'' Direct]]. Big Runs are limited-time events in which [[Salmonid]]s invade a [[stage]] normally used by [[Inkling]]s and [[Octoling]]s for [[Turf War]] and [[Anarchy Battle]]s, turning it into the only [[Salmon Run Next Wave|Salmon Run]] stage for the duration of the event. Starting with [[Chill Season 2022]], Big Runs happen once per [[season]], usually between two [[Splatfest]]s.

==Description==
Big Run shifts follow the same pattern as in regular Salmon Run. Four players team up to battle oncoming [[Salmonid]]s throughout three waves, splatting [[Boss Salmonid]]s to acquire [[Golden Egg]]s and deposit them in the [[egg basket]]. In addition to appearing from the water of the flooded sections of the battle stage, Salmonids can now also spawn from large [[Gusher]]s that burst open at the start of each normal and low tide wave. After the third wave, a [[King Salmonid]] may appear during an [[Xtrawave]]. The same [[Salmon Run Next Wave#Job title|rank]] system is used, with freelance and friend teams both available. The same [[Salmon Run Next Wave#Rewards|bonuses]] are granted, with additional bonuses and superbonuses added to the bar. Additionally, a 1.2x multiplier is applied to [[Catalog]] Points earned from shifts during the event.

Three different [[Water Levels (high and low tides)|tide levels]] can occur on each wave. Unlike in normal Salmon Run, where normal tide and high tide always take place in the same location and low tide takes place elsewhere, the play area of Big Run changes differently on each map. On some maps, all three tide levels can have separate egg baskets. Big Run features the [[Known Occurrence]]s of [[Rush]], [[Fog]], [[The Griller]], and [[The Mothership]] (except on [[Undertow Spillway]], where The Griller cannot occur). [[Cohock Charge]], [[Goldie Seeking]], [[Mudmouth Eruptions]], and [[Giant Tornado]] are not available. The possibility of Rush and The Griller is still constrained by the wave's tide level, but each can appear in more than one of the playable locations on the map, unlike in normal Salmon Run, where they cannot appear in the low tide location.

The Golden Egg total from a shift will count for the player's high score even if the team fails to complete all three waves, with [[Mr. Grizz]] indicating that he cares about the Golden Eggs more than he cares whether Splatsville is successfully defended from the Salmonid invasion.

During the event period, Big Run replaces access to regular Salmon Run shifts<ref>{{NES}} [https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/59461/~/how-to-update-splatoon-3#v200 Nintendo Support: How to Update ''Splatoon 3'']</ref> through the Grizzco lobby, similar to how [[Splatfest|Splatfest Battles]] restrict access to non-Splatfest [[Turf War|Turf War battles]] and [[Anarchy Battle]]s. Normal battles are still available, but the current Big Run stage is unavailable in any rotation until Big Run is over.

At the announcement and starting times of Big Run, a warning and recruitment message is delivered by [[Deep Cut]] during the [[Anarchy Splatcast]]. During the event,  [[Splatsville]], [[Inkopolis Plaza]], and [[Inkopolis Square]] become foggy. The skies overhead turn dark pink and filled with storm clouds, with [[Grizzco Industries|Grizzco]] helicopters flying overhead, and the background music is changed to an eerier tune played on violin (for Splatsville) or a synthesizer (for Inkopolis Plaza and Inkopolis Square, with separate ambient themes for both), and various noises coming from Salmonids can be heard. Promotional flyers for Big Run can be seen scattered across the place in each hub area as well. Inside [[Grizzco Industries]], a warning light flashes, and the usual Grizzco lobby music is replaced by ''[[Clickbait#Bait & Click (Mutation)|Bait & Click (Mutation)]]'', performed by [[ω-3]]. When playing a shift, the battle stage's sky takes on the same appearance, and ''[[Clickbait#Bait & Click|Bait & Click]]'' plays instead of ''[[Deluge Dirge]]'' or ''[[Frantic Aspic]]'' (other songs play as normal). Additionally, the ''[[Anarchy Splatcast (song)|Anarchy Splatcast]]'' theme is replaced during the event with a [[Grizzco Industries]] version.

Players do not have to reach Level 4 to participate in Big Run, unlike normal Salmon Run. This is seen in the stage schedule in [[SplatNet 3]], where it shows a banner reading, "It's Big Run time! Grizzco hiring ANYONE!"

==BIG Big Run==
[[File:S3 Sizzle Season 2024 BIG Big Run promo EN NOA.jpg|thumb|Promotional image for the BIG Big Run during Sizzle Season 2024.]]

A special Big Run dubbed BIG Big Run was teased in the [[Sizzle Season 2024]] announcement trailer.<ref>{{YT}} [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVNXf-DvO78 ''Splatoon 3'' - Sizzle Season 2024 - Nintendo Switch]</ref> During this special [[event]], all previous stages where Big Run events took place were taken over by [[Salmonid]]s; event participants were randomly sent to any of the available stages. A new Grizzco weapon, the [[Grizzco Roller]], made its debut as the sole [[rare weapon]] available outside of Xtrawave. The [[Triumvirate]], a team consisting of the three [[King Salmonid]]s ([[Cohozuna]], [[Horrorboros]], and [[Megalodontia]]), was also introduced in this event, being fought in [[Xtrawave]], wherein players receive a random rare weapon and two [[special weapon]] uses. [[Fish scale]]s obtained during an Xtrawave received a x3 Triumvirate bonus, which replaced the usual x2 scale bonus present in other Big Runs.

BIG Big Run took place from {{date|2024-06-08}} to {{date|2024-06-10}}, during which the six stages ([[Wahoo World]], [[Inkblot Art Academy]], [[Undertow Spillway]], [[Barnacle & Dime]], [[Um'ami Ruins]], and [[Eeltail Alley]]) were absent from stage rotations in online battle modes. The stage selection for this event was referred to as "Multiple Sites" in in-game and [[SplatNet 3]] rotation listings. The term "BIG Big Run" was only used in [[Anarchy Splatcast]] news dialogue and official social media posts; in mode selection and SplatNet 3 shift records, the event was referred to by the standard Big Run title.{{Clear}}

==Rewards==
[[File:S3 Big Run results example EN.png|right|thumb|Big Run results announcement showing the high score breakdown for that event.]]

At the end of each Big Run event, exclusive [[List of locker decorations in Splatoon 3|locker decorations]] are awarded based on the highest team-wide [[Golden Egg]] total the player achieved in any one shift. Each Big Run has three fixed tiers of scores to aim for, which are announced at the start of a Big Run during the [[Anarchy Splatcast]]. Players who do not meet score thresholds still receive a basic version of the decoration for participating in at least one shift.

Before version {{Ver|S3|6.0.0}}, scores were instead ranked relative to the high scores of all participating players, with the different decorations awarded to players whose high score was in the top 5%, top 20%, top 50%, or bottom 50% (participation) of scores.

Additionally, starting from version {{Ver|S3|4.0.0}}, Big Run participants receive double [[fish scale]]s after an Xtrawave. As of {{Ver|S3|8.0.0}}, the Xtrawave of a BIG Big run (facing off against the [[Triumvirate]]) rewards participants with triple [[fish scale]]s instead.

You... are aware of the '''{{color|Big Run|orange}}''' phenomenon, yes? Where Salmonids stray far from their own turf and invade our city? It is business critical that we prevent the Salmonids from damaging the city. Stopping them is no small task, but Grizzco employees are willing to risk it all.

By now you know that Salmonids are swarming toward the Grand Festival venue. Your job this time is to make sure there's still a place left for the Splatfest. But it's not all work, no play. Which is why I have a special surprise for you.

See the number on the electric board over there? That's the '''{{color|total number of Golden Eggs delivered by everyone|orange}}''' helping out with this Big Run. If it hits the '''{{color|quota|orange}}''' I set, all participants get a bonus set of '''{{color|fish scales|orange}}'''. The quota is '''{{color|700,000,000|orange}}'''. Where did I get that number, you're wondering? Glad you asked. The great migration of salmon used to happen once every 70 years. But about two years ago, it started happening all over. This is the seventh site. And what do you get if you add seven zeros to 70? You get 700,000,000.

So there you have it. It's a big ask, but you have big skills. I'm already thinking about giving you all even more fish scales if you go enough over the quota. Now go out, form your crews, and make that number go up.|[[Mr. Grizz]] when the player enters [[Grizzco Industries]] for the first time during the [[Grand Splatlands Bowl]] Big Run}}

==Trivia==
{{Trivia}}

[[File:Big Run No Rings.png|250px|right|thumb|The seven rings island in-game. Note the lack of the seven rings themselves, but the presence of the lights they cast.]]

*During the initial Big Run reveal, the sky in the footage was a dark red, matching the appearance of the sky during an Xtrawave. This was most likely a placeholder, as the sky was changed to pink in the second trailer.
* In the background of a promotional image for Wahoo World, the "seven rings" mentioned in {{S2}}'s [[List of Sunken Scrolls in Splatoon 2#Scroll 17|Sunken Scroll 17]] can be seen in the sky, above an island. During its initial appearance, the rings themselves were not present in-game, though the lights coming from the seven rings were still visible; this was corrected during the BIG Big Run. The rings are much closer to the stage and more visible at [[Um'ami Ruins]].
** The Sunken Scroll's illustration also appears briefly in the [[Chill Season 2022]] announcement trailer for a few frames at the beginning of the Big Run segment.
* Every instance of a Big Run introduces a new gameplay mechanic:
** Wahoo World introduced the mode as a whole.
** Inkblot Art Academy introduced [[Horrorboros]].
** Undertow Spillway introduced randomized King Salmonids.
** Um'ami Ruins introduced the [[Grizzco Dualies]].
** Barnacle & Dime introduced [[Megalodontia]].
** Eeltail Alley is the only Big Run stage where the whole stage is always available due to unchanged water levels, and Salmonids spawn exclusively from [[Gusher]]s. However, three different tide levels are still indicated at the beginning of a wave, and the play area changes along with them.
** The BIG Big Run introduced randomly selected stages, the [[Grizzco Roller]], and the [[Triumvirate]].
** The [[Grand Splatlands Bowl]] was the only stage to debut during a Big Run, which featured Mr. Grizz's modifications of [[Big Shot]] launchers for delivering Golden Eggs alongside a unique music track called ''[[Clickbait#Double Clickbait|Double Clickbait]]'' for regular waves.
** The second [[Wahoo World]] Big Run introduced repeating Big Runs for the first time
* During the Undertow Spillway Big Run, the lighting on the inside of the helicopter was incorrectly applied, causing a small strip at the bottom of the screen to always appear fully lit. The same error was visible during the Barnacle & Dime Big Run, although less conspicuously. This was fixed during the BIG Big Run.
* The numbers of accounts that participated in the first three Big Runs are present in the game's data.<ref>{{TWI}} [[Inkipedia:Twitter archive/2023/June#June 11|@Coxxs on Twitter]]</ref>
**For the first Big Run at Wahoo World, there were 2,869,022 registered accounts.
**For the second Big Run at Inkblot Art Academy, there were 2,766,896 registered accounts.
**For the third Big Run at Undertow Spillway, there were 1,853,657 registered accounts.
*[[File:S3 Anarchy Splatcast Glitch Barnacle & Dime Big Run.mp4|thumb|Anarchy Splatcast glitch after the Barnacle & Dime Big Run]]For certain players, the initial Anarchy Splatcast results after the Barnacle & Dime Big Run had ended were skipped. These players also received prizes that were not consistent with their high scores, indicating that the older percentage-based system utilized before the 6.0.0 update was still in use, despite the prize qualifications previously being shown to be different. The glitch was quickly acknowledged by Nintendo.<ref name="br3bug">{{TWI}} [[Inkipedia:Twitter archive/2023/December#1731742943705268262|@SplatoonNA on Twitter]]</ref> The version 6.0.1 update remedied this for some players, but not others; those affected were able to collect the correct rewards by entering the [[lobby]] after the 6.0.2 update, though they were allowed to keep the initial incorrect figures.
** During this time, each figure threshold was listed in the in-game help menu as "{{button|A|switch}}0" [[Golden Egg]]s.
* The [[Eeltail Alley]] Big Run was the first to be held after [[Inkopolis Square]] was added. Several details were missing from the square during this time, including the origami crane statue, the sign over the entrance to [[the Shoal]], the smartphone border on one of Deca Tower's screens, and the tortoise statue's neckband. This was fixed in [[Version 7.2.0 (Splatoon 3)|version 7.2.0]], with the fixed version debuting in the BIG Big Run.
* During the Grand Splatlands Bowl Big Run:
** There are flashing sirens placed outside the entrance to the Grizzco building for all three hub areas.
*** Additional sirens can be seen attached to the tree in front of Inkopolis Plaza's Grizzco entrance, and the closest telephone pole to Inkopolis Square's Grizzco entrance.
**Grizzco flyers can be seen falling from the sky in front of all three Grizzco buildings.
** The Grizzco lobby is decorated with party decorations (likely for the Grand Festival, which this Big Run takes place just a week before) and two scoreboards both showing how close they are to reaching each quota.
** The song in the Grizzco lobby was changed to a Deep Cut version, with Shiver and Frye singing along to the main melody with Big Man accompanying. There are also drums and a whistle akin to Anarchy Poisons (Bird Mix) playing in the background as well.
*** This rendition can also be heard right outside of Splatsville's Grizzco building.
