Pikmin 3 story

Pikmin 3′s story will be very similar to previous Pikmin games, according to creator Shigery Miyamoto. Pikmin 3 will see the player control the character of Captain Olimar and or other characters. Via Olimar, the player controls small Pikmins, which they have to command and retrieve several pieces of their spaceship, in order for Captain Olimar to rebuild the ship and return home.

The full details of the story are yet to be unveiled, but it’s expected that players will once again control Pikmins and have a limited time to complete objectives, as the player can’t stay on the Pikmin planet longer than 30 days due to lack of oxygen and life support.
