Pikmin 3 Deluxe is one day from officially launching on the Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo of America has released a brand-new trailer to celebrate. The trailer is titled “Lead the Pikmin” and goes in-depth on the different types of Pikmin and how players can use them to their advantage.
In Pikmin games, it’s all about controlling an army of Pikmin and it’s up to you to lead the way and make tough decisions in order to ensure everyone’s survival.
Trust us, you don’t want to see what happens when a Pikmin dies –it ain’t a fun time I can tell you that much.
You can watch the trailer down below for yourself to learn all about Pikmin 3 Deluxe before it comes out on Oct. 30.
For those that weren’t aware, there is currently a free demo of Pikmin 3 Deluxe on the Switch eShop right now. You can jump into the beginning of the game and play through the opening section. You can also transfer that same save file to the full release if you end up purchasing it.
Our scored review for the game was published this week, so you can check that out to read my thoughts on Nintendo’s latest enhanced Wii U port. Here’s a snippet to get a little taste:
It’s a leisurely, slow-paced experience that is fantastic for just kicking back and chilling after a long hard day on the job. Of course, you can raise the difficulty if you want a challenge, but Pikmin 3 is laidback as ever, and because of the changes here, it’s more streamlined and accessible for everyone.
It may not have enough new features for revisiting players to sink their teeth into, but there’s enough content here that’ll make it worth your while.
