Pikmin 4 will officially be released later this year. Nintendo’s new Nintendo Direct started with the reveal that Pikmin 4 would be released on July 21, 2023. Some new gameplay was also shown off, showcasing a new kind of Pikmin – the Ice Pikmin, which can freeze either creatures or some surfaces – along with a new dog-like creature named Oatchi that can assist players as they make their way through various puzzles. While the plot of Pikmin 4 has yet to be revealed, a tease of a potential plot was hinted at when one of the Bulborb, a longtime Pikmin enemy, suddenly had its eyes glow red. You can check out the first look at the new game down below:
