Hatch Cores, Weekly & Monthly Challenges | v5.0.85

Hatch Cores, Weekly & Monthly Challenges, Global Surge Buff, and Full Localization

NEW ITEM: HATCH CORE

Hatch Cores instantly add a flat amount of progress to an egg of your choice.

  • Epic and lower: 250,000 hatch progress

  • Legendary: 500,000 hatch progress

  • Exotic: 1,000,000 hatch progress

  • Mythic: 2,000,000 hatch progress

Open the Eggs tab and select the Hatch Core icon on any egg. You can then choose:

  • USE 1 — Apply one Hatch Core

  • USE MAX — Use as many Hatch Cores as needed to instantly hatch the egg

If the egg reaches full progress, it hatches immediately.

Hatch Cores are available from the in-game Shop under Items in packs of 3, 10, 25, 50, and 100.

They can also be found as an extremely rare click drop, with a base chance of 1 in 25 million per click.

WEEKLY & MONTHLY CHALLENGES

The Challenges panel now includes Daily, Weekly, and Monthly tabs.

Complete challenges throughout each period to earn XP and unlock milestone rewards.

WEEKLY MILESTONES

  • 3 completed — XP Boost

  • 5 completed — Egg Catalyst

  • 8 completed — Luck Boost

  • 10 completed — Hatch Boost

Weekly progress runs from Monday to Monday using UTC.

MONTHLY MILESTONES

  • 3 completed — Egg Catalyst

  • 5 completed — 2 XP Boosts

  • 8 completed — 2 Luck Boosts and 2 Hatch Boosts

  • 10 completed — 2 Egg Catalysts

Challenge progress tracks everything you already do, including clicks, coins, XP, egg hatches, shards, troves, and boosts.

GLOBAL SURGE BUFF

Global Surge is now stronger:

  • Click multiplier increased from 1.2× to 1.5×

  • Player XP multiplier remains at 2×

FULL LOCALIZATION PASS

Every menu, panel, achievement, challenge, and tooltip has now been translated.

Community Button now supports 30 languages:

English, Arabic, Bulgarian, Czech, Danish, German, Greek, Spanish (Spain), Spanish (Latin America), Finnish, French, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.

This update goes beyond direct translation:

  • Player-facing language is now consistent throughout each translation

  • Achievement titles were rewritten naturally instead of being translated word for word

  • Short labels automatically shrink to prevent clipping in languages with longer text

  • Steam achievement names and descriptions are now localized

The redundant Eggs Found challenges have also been retired.

FIXES

  • Various text and layout issues discovered during the localization review have been fixed.
