The following article or section is in need of assistance from someone who plays Pikmin 3 Deluxe. |
Difficulty is a feature in Pikmin 3 Deluxe that alters aspects of the game in order to adjust how easy or hard it is. These aspects include the length of a day and the strength of enemies.
Upon creating a save file on the file selection screen, the player will be prompted to choose a difficulty. There are 3 options: Normal, Hard, and Ultra-Spicy, in increasing order of difficulty. The latter can only be unlocked once the player has completed the story mode in Hard difficulty, or completed the demo.
At any point in the saved game selection screen, the player can press to change a file's difficulty, but doing so makes it impossible for the player to earn any badge related to completing Story Mode in a given difficulty, in that file. If the player uses this option to change to the exact same difficulty the file is already at, nothing will happen.
Differences
Subject | Normal | Hard | Ultra-Spicy |
---|---|---|---|
Day duration | 18 minutes | 13 minutes | 13 minutes |
Fruit juice | 100% | 100% | 50% |
Enemy health | Enemies usually have lower health than on the Wii U original[1] | Most enemies have twice as much as health than on Normal difficulty[1] | |
Nectar eggs | Common | More than in the original game, but less than on normal difficulty | Same as the original game |
Pikmin limit | 100 | 100 | 60 |
Pikmin drowning time | ≈11 seconds | ≈6 seconds | ≈3 seconds |
Sprayed Pikmin drowning time | ≈5 seconds | ≈2 seconds | ≈1 second |
Leader health | ≈1.5 times the usual | Same as on the Wii U | Same as on the Wii U |
In addition, in normal difficulty, having the active leader collect a data file will automatically open it, whereas in the other difficulties, this is only true for some data files.
Badges
There are three badges related to completing Story Mode in a given difficulty:
- Pikmin Challenger: Obtained by beating Story Mode on Normal, Hard, or Ultra-Spicy difficulties.
- Pikmin Professional: Obtained by beating Story Mode on Hard or Ultra-Spicy difficulties.
- Pikmin Master: Obtained by beating Story Mode on Ultra-Spicy difficulty.
