Nintendo's Pikmin 4: Switch 2 Edition Launches, Priced at HK$379 on the Hong Kong eShop
IT之家 November 12 news: Nintendo has announced that its Pikmin 4: Switch 2 Edition is now officially on sale. This version includes the "Dandori Battle: Dandori Academy" mode. Taking the Hong Kong eShop as an example, the title is priced at HK$379 (IT之家 note: roughly 323 yuan RMB at current exchange rates).

Players can use voice commands to talk to Oatchi and direct its actions. The game adds a "Dandori Academy" mode, in which players must race against the clock to complete treasure-hunting tasks before time runs out. This mode focuses on high-score challenges, offers three difficulty options, and also opens weekly challenges every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
IT之家 notes that the well-received Pikmin 4 first launched on the original Switch platform in July 2023 and earned unanimous praise from players and media alike. Although the title's sales performed impressively compared with earlier entries in the series (especially in Japan, where Pikmin 4's first-week sales exceeded the combined first-week sales of the first three games in the series), the game never received any additional content after release.
