Pikmin 4 confirmed in development and apparently close to completion
Popular gaming website Eurogamer.net has confirmed in an interview with Shigeru Miyamoto that Pikmin 4 is currently in development on an unannounced platform, which is apparently almost finished. Even though no details of the sequel were discussed, it is assumed that the Pikmin successor will most likely appear on Nintendo’s upcoming next generation console codenamed “NX”.
“It’s actually very close to completion,” Miyamoto said. “Pikmin teams are always working on the next one.”
Nintendo themselves also stated in a separate interview:
“We can confirm that Pikmin 4 is in development but that is all we can confirm at present.”
We’re a little shocked that a new Pikmin is already in the works. The series isn’t necessarily a hot seller, but 2013’s Pikmin 3 didn’t perform too poorly. Anyone excited for a new Pikmin game?
