Pikmin 1 and 2 coming to Switch today, Pikmin 4 demo announced

Just announced by Nintendo, Pikmin 1 and 2 coming to Switch today. Both will be sold digitally on the Switch eShop.

Additionally, a Pikmin 4 demo has been announced. This will be available on June 28, 2023.

As promised, Pikmin 4 was shown off during today’s Nintendo Direct with a new trailer. Various aspects are highlighted such as night expeditions, Glow Pikmin, and more.

Below is an overview of the game:

Meet Pikmin, small, plantlike creatures you can grow, pluck, command, and overpower your enemies with! These curious helpers come in different types – fire is no sweat for Red Pikmin and the brand-new Ice Pikmin can freeze enemies and the environment. Use your Pikmin’s miniature might (and a bit of strategy) to explore this mysterious planet.

You get a dog, too! Oatchi (pronounced oat-chee), resident good boy and dependable partner, can help with things like smashing obstacles and carrying Pikmin throughout your adventure. With the miniscule Pikmin and a capable canine in tow, no challenge is too big!
