It could come out on Xbox in the future, with a technological hitch with theXbox Series Sresponsible for its absence, but for now it’s PC and PS players who can begin to look forward to the game....

Pikmin 4’sbig release day is almost upon us, but some fans of the series are a lot less excited than others. We’ve been steadily getting more information about the game via the latest Nintendo Direct and a recent batch of previews, which have led fans to discover that Pikmin 4’s co-op mode is a lot less robust than its predecessor Pikmin 3 Deluxe.
