Pikmimine Bloom will be released on October 27

"Pikmimine Bloom" is a game that uses location information, like the previous niantic titles such as "Pokemon GO" and "Ingress".It will proceed by actually walking.

"Pikmin" is a series that continues from the title released for "Nintendo Game Cube".The creature that inhabits a certain planet explores the planet with the protagonist Orimer.

Pikmin that appears in the game is a plant -like creature, and can be taken as a companion by planting, raising and pulling seedlings.Each animal is weak, but if you grow up a large amount of pikmin, you can fight large creatures.

A casual game character walking with Pikmin

In Pikmimine Bloom, players grow pikmin, bloom, and plant the flowers in the city instead of the protagonist of Pikmin.

Also, while walking, Pikmin picks up various things from the city.There are a variety of things you pick up, such as fruit and pikmin seedlings, which are the basis of extracts needed to make Pikmin bloom.Each time you play, the types and numbers of pikmin increase, and you can do more.

"Pikmimine Bloom" is a casual app that anyone can play with like a game -logic game.If you think of it as a game, there is little to do and there is not much purpose.

Both growing pikmin and planting flowers are basically automatically performed in the background, so players simply open the app, collect and gave Pikmin picked up.。However, the moving records and the places where the flowers plant are planted will be recorded, so you can enjoy looking back on your actions.You will be able to play at the same time while playing other location information games such as "Pokemon GO" and "Ingress".

Niantic's CEO John Hankke said at a preliminary briefing that he could enjoy it from the age of 8 to 80, and was impressed.

Equipped with AR shooting function!

AR is AR.Of course, "Pikmimine Bloom" is also compatible with AR.You can shoot with Pikmins at the place you actually visited.There is no function to share photos in the app itself, but to commemorate the trip, you will be able to enjoy sharing photos taken with Pikmin on existing SNS.

It is basically free, but there are also billing elements, such as purchasing additional slots (so -called planters) to grow pikmin.By default, you have two slots, so you can basically grow up to two pikmin at a time, but if you want to increase it more than that, you should buy an additional slot.

Of course, it doesn't grow just by charging.You need to walk.If you compare it, it is an image that will increase the number of eggs to be hatched separately in addition to "Mugenfukaso" in "Pokemon GO".

Also, as I explained a little earlier, Pikmin picks up various things when walking together.Apart from that, if you put out Pikmin, you will pick up nearby fruits, seedlings, postcards, and items to be dressed by Pikmin even if you are not walking.

The postcard has the scenery of the place you have walked so far and can be sent to your friend who has become a friend.There are various items such as coffee cups and toothbrushes.If it is a coffee cup, it will be picked up in a related place, such as a cafe, a toothbrush, a pharmacy.

In addition to the exchanges of postcards with the players who have become friends, flowers can be planted together.

By the way, "Pikmimine Bloom" uses "MII", which is familiar with Nintendo account for player avatars.When you are planting flowers together, a friend "MII" is displayed on the map.

"Pikmimine Bloom" is a simple version with few parts, but by linking the Nintendo account and "Pikmimine Bloom", you can also use the "MII" used so far.

At the moment, it seems that there is no plan to appear in the primary creatures and the main character Orimer that appeared in the Pikmin series.The main purpose is to live with Pikmin and check the trajectory you walked.When you want to breathe, open "Pikmimine Bloom", look at Pikmin, collect petals, and let Pikmins free in the background.It's a good game.

John Hanke also suggested that as the Corona's situation improves, it will be an app that will trigger it to go out, so why not start as a man on the go?
