Pikmin 4 Trailer Shows Off Character Creation, Leaves Some Wondering about Future Nintendo Direct
Nintendo released a new trailer for the upcoming Pikmin 4 this morning, revealing some new story details and a character creation mechanic for the game.
Running for just over a minute, the trailer is dubbed over with pulpy narration describing the basic setup of the game. Captain Olimar, returning character and protagonist of the first two Pikmin games, seems to have crash-landed again on PNF-404, the mysterious Earth-like planet that serves as the series’ setting. The narrator goes on to explain that Olimar’s distress signal is received by the Rescue Corps, represented in the trailer by seven silhouettes. Six of these appear to be the series’ typical bulbous helmeted explorers and one of whom appears to be the new dog-like character Oatchi, who was revealed in the game’s last trailer. The rescue corps, however, also crash-landed, leaving it as the player’s job to rescue both them and Olimar.
