Splatoon Raiders Post-Game Guide

Follow the post-game route through Super Spicy raids, three Hidden Ruins, and the Bottomless Buffet floor-100 objective.

Updated 2026-08-13By Raiders Atlas Editorial

Quick answer

After the credits, use Super Spicy raids to strengthen weak builds, then clear Fischflak Hidden Ruins at Level 42, Smoksam at Level 44, and Myunyere at Level 46 with all three Tanks. Their progression opens Bottomless Buffet, which begins at Level 50 and places its true-ending objective at floor 100.

Major spoiler warning

This page reveals post-credits modes, Hidden Ruins requirements, the Bottomless Buffet structure, and the reward tied to its floor-100 objective.

What unlocks after the story

Super Spicy raids

Most non-tutorial campaign raids gain a harder variant with stronger and more numerous Salmonids. These raids are locked to Survivalist difficulty and can be used to improve equipment before the Hidden Ruins.

Three Hidden Ruins

Fischflak, Smoksam, and Myunyere each contain Tank-specific challenges. Plan to bring developed Speed, Power, and Tactical builds rather than relying on a single preferred Tank.

Bottomless Buffet

The final post-game route is cleared in groups of three floors. Its displayed Salmonid Level begins at 50 and increases as the run advances. Call for Help is disabled, while online multiplayer remains available.

The table follows the displayed Salmonid Levels and keeps Bottomless Buffet separate from the three fixed Hidden Ruins.

Floor 100 and beyond

Floor 100 is the main story target inside Bottomless Buffet. Clearing it leads to the true ending and the Endless Search relic power. The randomized challenge can continue after that point, so reaching floor 100 completes the narrative goal without ending the mode itself.

No final floor or player-level cap has been announced. The dungeon starts at Salmonid Level 50, the displayed enemy level rises after each three-floor group, and the story objective ends at floor 100. You can continue into further randomized challenges after completing that objective.
