Wait, What? ‘Pikmin 4’ Is Happening, And Nearly Complete?

Briefly: I love Pikmin.

I was absolutely floored that Pikmin 3 ever happened. Nintendo has a lot of properties that haven’t received new titles in years, and I didn’t know that Pikmin sold well enough to warrant another title any time soon.

Well, apparently Pikmin 4 is happening, and it may be closer than we think.

In a just-released interview with Eurogamer (held back in July), Miyamoto revealed news of the next Pikmin game:

“It’s actually very close to completion,” Miyamoto said. “Pikmin teams are always working on the next one.”

Sure, it’s just a single sentence, but it’s a sentence that makes me so happy.

Nintendo confirmed that the title was in fact. in development, but would not comment on a platform or release date.

Excited? What do you hope to see in the next game? Sound out below!
