AI summary

Nintendo has announced that Pikmin 4: Switch 2 Edition is now officially available, including the "Dandori Academy" mode; on the Hong Kong eShop it is priced at HK$379 (roughly 323 yuan at current exchange rates). Players can use voice commands to talk to Oatchi and direct its actions, and the new "Dandori Academy" mode has them racing the clock to complete treasure-hunting tasks before time runs out, focusing on high-score challenges with three difficulty options plus weekly challenges on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. The well-received Pikmin 4 first launched on the original Switch in July 2023 to acclaim from players and media, and although its sales were strong—especially in Japan, where its launch sales exceeded the combined launch sales of the previous three games in the series—it never received any additional content after release.
