Head below for today’s Pikmin 4 — Rise to the Occasion trailer and more details on the game. 

Pikmin 4 release date, new trailer, and more

Nintendo took to its official Twitter feed this morning to unveil the latest trailer for the upcoming Pikmin 4 as well as the release date. Players won’t have to wait much longer either as the game is now slated for release on Nintendo Switch come July 21, 2023.

Captain Olimar and the Rescue Corps have crash-landed on a mysterious planet, and only YOU can save them! Rise to the occasion and venture forth, brave explorer! Pikmin 4 launches exclusively on Nintendo Switch July 21, 2023. Pre-orders are available now on Nintendo eShop.

Feast your eyes on today’s new trailer, Pikmin 4 — Rise to the Occasion:

The game is now available for pre-order directly from Nintendo in both physical and digital form at $59.99. More details inbound momentarily…

Pikmin 4 has now been added to Nintendo’s list of eligible titles for its Switch Online voucher promotion. That means you can land a pair of pre-orders at $50 a pop if you purchase any two new releases on the list. All of the details you need on that are in our previous feature piece.

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!
