===Normal=== | |||
Normal mode is the easiest difficulty. In it, days last 18 minutes. The mid-day chime plays after 9:00 minutes, the sunset warning begins after 15:50 minutes, and the sunset countdown begins after 17:27 minutes. Enemies usually have lower health than on the Wii U original.{{cite web|https://www.reddit.com/r/Pikmin/comments/jf1lf9/enemy_hp_comparison_how_to_test_it/|Enemy HP Comparison + How to test it.|reddit|published={{date|21|October|2020}}|retrieved={{date|14|October|2020}}|rname=health_research}} | |||
== | ===Hard=== | ||
Hard mode is the intermediate difficulty. In it, days last 13 minutes, which is the same as in the original Wii U version. The mid-day chime plays after 6:30 minutes, the sunset warning begins after 10:50 minutes, and the sunset countdown begins after 12:27 minutes. Most enemies have twice as much as health than on normal difficulty.{{cite web|rname=health_research}} | |||
== | ===Ultra-Spicy=== | ||
Ultra-Spicy mode is the hardest difficulty. In it, days are shorter than 13 minutes, and enemies are stronger. Most notably, the [[100 Pikmin limit]] of Pikmin on the field is reduced to a 60 Pikmin limit. Fruits also provide half the amount of [[juice]] that they normally would. | |||
