Update 8 for Steal An Egg introduced a racing event for Roblox players, along with the ability to turn your pets into Mounts. If you’re a fan of competitive racing, this event lets you win fun Pets and Racers by leaving your opponents in the dust. You’ll start off with the Ostrich by default, but rack up those Wins to unlock much cooler Racers!
How Does the Racing Event Work in Steal An Egg, Explained
The racing event takes place around every 30 minutes per server; to enter, just find the biome it’s announced in and enter the portal. How it works is that you’ll be competing in three laps against other players. Since you’re given an Ostrich for free, there’s no need to have transformed a pet into a Mount prior.
First place will reward you with a Win and 2,500 Trophies, while other participants’ winnings will vary. Note that you need to be in first place to get a Win, which is how you’ll achieve milestones for unlocking more Racers. Trophies, on the other hand, are the currency you can spend in the racing event shop.
Those who’ve played racing games like Mario Kart should ‘understand the assignment’ pretty easily for Steal An Egg’s racing event. It’s not luck or chance-based to win; you’ll need to learn the course, focus on hitting boost strips, avoiding obstacles, and using power-ups to your advantage. So keep your expectations in check if you’re aiming to achieve a Win during your first few races.
What Can You Unlock with Wins and Trophies
Speaking of Wins, here’s a quick overview of what you can unlock with them:
| Racer | Wins Needed |
|---|---|
| Ostrich | Default |
| Seahorse | 1 win |
| Lizard | 5 wins |
| Bird | 15 wins |
| Cheetah | 21 wins |
| Citadel Snail | 30 wins |
These Racers aren’t just unlockables for the event; you also get their corresponding pet eggs to hatch at your base. The rewards listed aren’t the only things you’ll get from racking up Wins. There are 14 milestones in total, with Trophy rewards between Racer unlocks.
As for what Trophies can buy, here’s a quick list:
| Item | Cost | Effect or Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Nitro Mutation | 475x Trophies | 10% chance to give the Nitro mutation to pets |
| 2x Cash Booster | 275x Trophies | 10 minutes |
| 1.25x Speed Booster | 375x Trophies | Increases speed for 5 minutes |
| 2x Treadmill Booster | 375x Trophies | Doubles treadmill training for 10 minutes |
| Racing Bat | 10,000x Trophies | Event item |
Keep in mind that paying for the mutation only gives you a chance to apply it to your pets; it’s not guaranteed. That said, if you’re looking for something permanent to unlock from this event shop, save up for the Racing Bat.
