'''''Pikmin 3 Deluxe''''' is the title of the newest entry in the {{ps}}. It is an enhanced port of {{p3}}, set to release for the [[Nintendo Switch]] on {{date|30|October|2020}}. | |||
== | == Changes from ''Pikmin 3'' == | ||
The following differences between {{p3}} and the ''Deluxe'' version are known: | |||
=== | === Gameplay === | ||
[[File: | [[File:P3DX Promo Screenshot 6.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Co-op gameplay.]] | ||
* | * There are multiple difficulty modes to choose from.{{cite web|https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1291014126924255233|Nintendo of America|Twitter|published={{date|5|August|2020}}|retrieved={{date|5|August|2020}}|rname=noa_tweet}} | ||
* | * Players can play through story mode cooperatively.{{cite web|https://twitter.com/NintendoUK/status/1291011591706759168|Nintendo of UK|Twitter|published={{date|5|August|2020}}|retrieved={{date|5|August|2020}}|rname=nouk_tweet}} | ||
* | * The [[lock-on]] system has been substantially changed.{{cite web|https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Games/Nintendo-Switch/Pikmin-3-Deluxe-1821101.html|Pikmin 3 Deluxe|Nintendo UK's product listing|retrieved={{date|5|August|2020}}|rname=nouk_listing}} | ||
* | ** Arrow icons appear above objects that can be locked-on to, and the cursor can go to them by pressing {{button|switch|zr}}.{{cite youtube|vdrRST_36oU|demonstrating how throwing works|published={{date|18|August|2020}}|retrieved={{date|28|August|2020}}|rname=jp_site_throw}} | ||
** When locked-on to an object that can be carried, the carrying numbers can display "0" if there are no carriers.{{cite youtube|hJcbMY1JbCg|demonstrating the sunset sequence|published={{date|18|August|2020}}|retrieved={{date|28|August|2020}}|rname=jp_site_sunset}} | |||
* | * [[Charging]] has been changed. | ||
* | ** It is now possible to order only Pikmin from a certain type in the group to charge.{{cite youtube|hSujRBzq9QE|demonstrating group control|published={{date|18|August|2020}}|retrieved={{date|28|August|2020}}|rname=jp_site_group}} | ||
** | ** It is possible to charge ahead in the direction of the [[cursor]] without being locked-on.{{cite youtube|USUnZMZKYY0|demonstrating a fight against the [[Bug-Eyed Crawmad]]|published={{date|18|August|2020}}|retrieved={{date|28|August|2020}}|rname=jp_site_crawmad}} | ||
* | * Some controls have been moved into a mini menu that takes the shape of a D-pad. With this, the player can swap to the previous or next leader, use a [[spray]], or [[dismiss]]. It appears that the leaders available in this menu are sorted by priority left to right – Alph will always take the left spot, Captain Charlie will always take the right one, and Brittany will always be in the remaining spot.{{cite youtube|rname=jp_site_group}} | ||
* | * The player can change the standby Pikmin type both to the previous one and to the next one. The HUD is also changed to reflect this: the three Pikmin standby type bubbles now have a focus on the central one as opposed to the leftmost one.{{cite youtube|rname=jp_site_group}} | ||
* | * If the player swaps to an inactive leader that's surrounded by idle Pikmin, all of those idle Pikmin will be added to that leader's group right away.{{cite youtube|rname=jp_site_group}} | ||
** | * The whistle expands quicker, can reach farther, and can cover a much larger area.{{cite youtube|rname=jp_site_crawmad}} | ||
* Enemies have been re-balanced.{{cite web|rname=nouk_listing}} | |||
* Hints can be enabled, which can display arrows that guide the player to the next destination.{{cite web|https://topics.nintendo.co.jp/article/cf7a50af-03e5-4b49-bff4-0db5fbc3b3cc|『ピクミン3』がデラックスになってNintendo Switchに登場。新要素を収録し、10月30日発売決定。|Nintendo of Japan|retrieved={{date|5|August|2020}}|rname=japanese_official_topic}} | |||
=== Content === | |||
* There are new side stories to play through.{{cite web|rname=noa_tweet}} | |||
** The first side story is set before the main story and is called "Olimar's Assignment", while the second is set after the main story. Both star [[Captain Olimar]] and [[Louie]]. Like the main story, these can be played in single-player or cooperatively with two players. | |||
* The [[Piklopedia]] originating from {{p2}} has been added.{{cite web|rname=noa_tweet}} | |||
** Each entry contains a comment by each of the five [[leader]]s, some way of seeing the creature, a general list of habitats, and the amount killed throughout the adventure. | |||
* All the [[downloadable content]] from {{p3}} is included in the base game.{{cite web|rname=noa_tweet}} | |||

** The style of the mini-map differs from the Wii U game's [[radar]], in that it uses solid colors instead of textures -- terrain is dark blue, water is a lighter blue, [[out of bounds]] locations are black, and walls are cyan. Leaders and the [[S.S. Drake]] also have stylized icons with minimalist drawings, instead of smaller versions of their portraits. | |||
