E3 2016 has ended, but the excitement over the glimpses of Breath of the Wild and the release of Pokemon Go is lingering in the air. A new confirmation from this year’s E3 has been disclosed: Pikmin 4 is still in production, according to an interview between GAMERANT and Shigeru Miyamoto.
GAMERANT asked Miyamoto-san at this year’s E3 if Pikmin 4 was still being worked on and he stated:
“Yes, you are right, and we’re working on [Pikmin 4]. So, you know, when we’re in development we have to create a list of priorities and it has been hard to kind of fit that into that list, but we’re hopefully starting to see that on the list now.”
It is a comfort for life-long Nintendo fans to hear the Big N is keeping up with their promises. With the NX’s planned launch March 2017, the developer teams must be extremely busy preparing the console and new games. The NX is a great mystery. What will the console look like? Will there be special editions? What sort of controllers will be compatible? With all these questions and uncertainty, fans can still count on Nintendo to create fun games.
Pikmin first launched in 2001 on the GameCube. Since then, Captain Olimar and the S.S. Dolphin have reappeared in two other Pikmin games and Super Smash Bros. If you want to keep up with the latest Pikmin 4 news and more, then come visit us again!
