What Is the Race for Eggs Kraken Secret?
The Race for Eggs Kraken secret refers to the game's most powerful hidden pet: the Kraken. Unlike regular animals hatched from world eggs (parrots, lizards, T-Rexes), the Kraken is not tied to any single world. Instead, it appears inside exclusive packs in the in-game shop, making it a premium acquisition that can instantly transform your run.
Video Highlights:
- A brand-new player unlocks the Kraken from an exclusive pack within the first world
- The Kraken carries the entire run from World 1 to the final Ice Kingdom race
- Exclusive packs also contain potions, seahorses, and plesiosaurs
- Mutations (Gold, Diamond, Radioactive, Rainbow) apply to nearly every animal
The Kraken stands apart because of how early you can obtain it and how long it stays relevant. While egg pets fall off quickly between worlds, the Kraken remained the anchor of a top lineup even in the final Ice Kingdom, sitting alongside pets like the Giant Elephant and mutated Bronchiosaurus.
Exclusive pack tiers can be purchased repeatedly. If the Kraken does not appear in your first pack, keep buying tiers — a second Kraken appeared almost immediately for one player, suggesting the odds are not as brutal as limited-time Robux animals.
Kraken vs. Other Top Pets
Understanding where the Kraken fits in the pet hierarchy helps you decide where to spend your Robux and cash. Below is how the strongest pets compare during a fresh max-level run.
| Pet | How to Obtain | Strength Notes | Rating |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kraken | Exclusive packs (shop) | Best animal in the game, carries all worlds | ★★★★★ |
| Giant Elephant | Final world (Ice Kingdom) race reward egg | Second best overall, hatched from the mammoth-tier egg | ★★★★★ |
| Bronchiosaurus | Magma Dragon eggs | Second rarest hatch, roughly 4% odds | ★★★★ |
| Rainbow Cockatoo | Magma Dragon egg hatch | Reported at ~42 billion output, fourth best in one lineup | ★★★★ |
| Plesiosaur | Exclusive packs | OP early-mid game pet, strong value | ★★★★ |
| Cosmic Triple Cobra | Snake egg | Cool visual, mid-tier, usually replaced | ★★★ |
Nearly every animal comes in Gold, Diamond, Radioactive, and Rainbow variants. A Radioactive Gorilla hatch jumped to roughly 2.8 trillion output in one run — mutations can out-rank a higher base pet without one.
Step-by-Step: Unlocking the Kraken and Going Max Level
Follow this proven progression route to secure the Kraken early and ride it all the way to the final world.
Start in World 1 and Claim Free Pets
Hatch your basic egg (parrot), claim the free lizard, and place them in your base. Save your cash — do not spread upgrades thin.
Buy Exclusive Pack Tiers
Open the shop and purchase exclusive pack tiers. Watch for the Kraken inside — the pack also includes potions, the seahorse, and the plesiosaur.
Train With the Best Dumbbell You Can Afford
Cycle cash into dumbbells (burger, skull, Rubik's Cube, spike, gold, diamond). Each tier multiplies your training speed exponentially.
Rebirth for Cash Multipliers
Rebirth resets progress but stacks cash multipliers — runs reached 512x cash and beyond. Rebirth whenever the cost feels reachable.
Stack Luck, Speed, and Event Bonuses
Equip the Galaxy Dice (6x luck) and Purple Dice (max luck), redeem the "Release" code for a free animal, and grab VIP for 1.5x cash.
Beat the Ice Kingdom and Hatch the Final Egg
Defeat the mouse, polar bear, and mammoth in the final races, then hatch the top-tier egg for the Giant Elephant.
The code "Release" grants a free animal — redeem it early. Codes come and go, so check the game's official Roblox page and community channels for current ones.
Shop Investments Ranked by Value
Not every purchase is worth your Robux. Here is how the major shop options stack up for a Kraken-centered run.
| Shop Item | Cost | Value | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Exclusive Pack Tiers | Robux | Contains the Kraken plus other pets and potions | Top priority |
| Speed Multipliers (1.5x–32x) | Cash / small Robux | Up to 32x speed, the cap in one run | Buy early |
| Rainbow / Purple Dice | Shop | 6x to max luck on hatches | Great value |
| VIP | Robux | Extra 1.5x cash stacking with other multipliers | Worth it mid-run |
| 2x Cash | 60 Robux | Doubles all earnings | Strong combo with VIP |
| Limited-Time Animals (Hydra, 12,000 Robux) | Heavy Robux | Powerful but extremely expensive | Skip unless whaling |

World Progression Overview
Each world ends with a boss race. Your speed stat must beat the final competitor to earn the world's best egg.
| World | Setting | Final Boss | Key Reward Egg |
|---|---|---|---|
| World 1 | Base world | T-Rex | T-Rex egg |
| World 2 | Desert Island | Pharaoh | Eternal Sphinx egg |
| World 3 | Ice Kingdom | Polar Bear / Mammoth | Mouse, Gorilla, Polar Bear, final egg |
When a gold event starts, hatches during that window come out as gold variants only. Time your egg purchases to these events for guaranteed mutation upgrades.
