Pikmin 3 is the upcomming third installment in the Pikmin franchise, revealed at E3. It will be for Wii U.[1]
Plot
From what has been seen so far at E3[2], the game revolved around 4 entirely-new characters exploring the depths of the Pikmin planet. Olimar and presumably Louie are notably missing as well.[3]
Gameplay
Pikmin 3 will play in a similar fashion to previous installments. However, the pikmin themselves will be able to preform a multitude of different tasks. There are new hazards such as ice and magma-based enemies. Olimar is, for a reason Miyamoto wants to stay secret, not a playable character. Instead, a pink-haired girl, a bald general, a small green haired boy and a tall, green-haired man are the playable characters. [4]
Pikmin will break walls differently based one where they attack walls, and the various other new tasks can be performed, such as picking up fruit and anything else used for nourishment.
The captains will be able to throw other captains and appear to be able to play with eachother in the main story mode.
The controls and battle mechanics will be much more detailed. For example. The players can use the Wii controls, and shake the wii remote to throw Pikmin, and shake the nunchuck to charge. Also, the Pikmin will be able to do more damage depend on where they hit a specific monster. The Wiimotion Plus is required for Wii controls.The players will be able to use the Wii U gamepad to scroll completely out of the map during play.
There will be many new game modes, including multiplayer, singleplayer, and a new type of Challenge Mode.
New Pikmin
So far, 2 new Pikmin types are available.
