PREVIEW: Pikmin 4 evolves the series' gameplay in subtle, yet meaningful ways.

last year showing off a new up-close camera angle, I’ll admit that, as a big fan of previous games, I held some concerns.

“But when you entered that flow state… Pikmin offered a satisfying, tactile sensation that has yet to be replicated by any strategy game since.” We were pleasantly surprised in our short play session to discover that, despite the closer camera angle , it very much feels like a traditional Pikmin game. Instead, Nintendo has dialled down the stress via subtle quality-of-life changes that adjust the pace of the game.

The new Pikmin type we were able to try in our demo, the Ice type Pikmin, actually feel like a big accessibility option by themselves. In addition to being able to freeze water to allow other Pikmin to cross, Ice Pikmin can freeze enemies, allowing your army to dispatch them much more quickly.
