Nintendo have confirmed that Pikmin 3 is set to release in Australia on July 27th, just a day behind Europe.
During the Direct stream, Iwata showed some new details about the game, such as the new main characters; Alph, Brittany and Charlie. The three characters need to gather food to survive, using the Pikmin to gather fruits to juice. The same day and night cycle reappears, but you can now replay days to get that perfect run.
The Wii U Gamepad is called the “KopPad” in game, and uses the built in screen as a mini-map, to make finding the characters and Pikmin easier. You can also watch a replay of your days to review and perfect your skills. The game supports off TV play, and other control options, such as the Wii Remote Plus, or the Wii U Pro Controller.
