Pikmin VI is an upcoming game created by Pikminidae. It is intended to be a standalone game that takes place a few years after the events of Pikmin 3 and would be released for the Nintendo Switch.
Plot
Due to the bravery of the Koppaite leaders in traveling to PNF-404 and obtaining fruits to save their planet, Koppai flourished. And through the wisdom of planning, it was unlikely that it would run into the same problem again. Unlikely, but not impossible.
History repeats itself
It turns out the Koppaites somehow exhausted their food sources again, so they send out SPEROs to, once again, try to secure edible matter. And, once again, only the last one reports back positive. So the Koppaites do what any planet would do: they send out a small group of leaders to secure edible matter to save their home planet once again. And this is where it all starts.
Alternate game modes
Much like the games before it, Pikmin VI has a variety of alternate game modes. They are:
- Challenge Mode: presents a selection of stages with various tasks for the player to fulfill. Each stage's time limit is that of one in-game day. The goals are to Battle Enemies!, Defeat Bosses!, Collect Fruits!, and Grow Pikmin!. Battle Enemies! and Defeat Bosses! return from Pikmin 3, Collect Fruits! is a new addition revolving around collecting fruits, and Grow Pikmin! involves propagating as many Pikmin as possible in the span of an in-game day much like Pikmin 1's Challenge Mode. In Grow Pikmin!, the S.S. Explorer is absent, and so Purple Pikmin, White Pikmin, and Sharp Pikmin are unavailable.
- Fruit Gatherer: a new game mode comparable to Challenge Mode's Collect Fruits! goal, which is collecting as many fruits as possible within a time limit. The fruits that appear are dependent on the discovered fruits in Story Mode, and the stages are remixed versions of Story Mode stages. It is unlocked after either the second area is unlocked or 20 fruits are collected, whichever one comes first.
Content
Pikmin
All Pikmin from the official Pikmin games return, except the Glow Pikmin. However, a new Pikmin is introduced: the Sharp Pikmin, which has a 1.25x attack power because of its sharp stem, and much like with the White Pikmin, when eaten, will damage the enemy, and when crushed by an enemy, that enemy will also receive damage, which is higher if crushed on hard surfaces. Sharp Pikmin can also destroy the strings suspending certain types of platforms in the air.
Leaders
Alph returns from Pikmin 3, but a new leader is also in Pikmin VI, being Ali, a botanist eager to save her home planet.
