“Champion colors” can mean The Champion character’s palettes or the Animated Chromatic palette. This guide distinguishes the two.
Complete each team Episode
Official: Episode Mode is a single-player story mode built around the game’s teams. Community report: clearing a team Episode unlocks Color 5 for that team’s members.
Why Champion is different
Community report: The Champion’s fifth color appears only after all Episodes are complete. A single team clear is therefore not expected to finish this specific character route.
Unknown: the checked official pages do not state whether difficulty, optional objectives, or replay conditions affect the reward.
Verify in the menu
After the final required Episode, open the character color or Costumes selection and check The Champion directly. Record the completion notice and the newly selectable palette.
If no color appears, confirm every team Episode shows complete before replaying content.
Do not confuse the reward
The Ultimate Edition Animated Chromatic is official paid edition content for all 20 launch characters. It is separate from the community-reported Champion Color 5 Episode reward.
