Keeping up to date with the “freshest” fashion styles in Splatoon 3 is one of the central goals for Inklings and Octolings alike, and the Teddy Band Bear Ears Headgear is an excellent article of apparel to add some adorable charm to one’s fit. However, unlocking this unique headband might be more than some can bear since the requirements are pretty demanding. The prerequisite process involves the completion of the entire main campaign, including a bonus level that can be incredibly challenging to accomplish. Continue reading to learn how to unlock the Teddy Band Bear Ears Headgear in Splatoon 3.

Unlocking The Teddy Band In Splatoon 3

As mentioned above, Splatoon 3 fans will need to complete the main story of the Return of the Mammalians to unlock the Teddy Band. This process consists of several boss battles, six Sites, and over sixty stages that players must get through. There is no time limit to obtaining the headgear, so fans can take their time completing the game.

How to Get All Badges in Splatoon 3

Once the prerequisites above have been fulfilled, players will receive an in-game notice that a secret golden Kettle stage has become available. According to Polygon, this stage is known as “After Alterna.” The level will take roughly 15 minutes to complete, but due to its high difficulty, the challenge will likely take longer for players. “After Alterna” is the ultimate test of what Splatoon 3 fans have learned throughout their journey in the main campaign. The stage is filled with tricky jumps, tough enemies, and dynamic terrain that requires a high level of platforming skills. Nevertheless, those who’ve managed to beat the game’s story should be capable of completing this level, even if it takes them several tries.

Fortunately, “After Alterna” has four checkpoints that can be activated throughout the level. They are spaced quite far from each other, meaning that players should be extra careful not to be eliminated before reaching the next checkpoint. The final area of the Kettle’s stage involves a final showdown with a brigade of hostile Octolings. Once this battle is over, players can exit the level and will receive a notice that the Teddy Band Bear Ears Headgear has been unlocked in Splatoon 3. To claim this well-earned prize, head over to the kiosk within the main lobby of the central tower in Splatsville and interact with the device to receive the reward.
