Planning Test*, a title for the Nintendo Switch 2 set for release on November 12, is scheduled to be released on November 2.Players will be able to play two stages: the early section of *Pikmin 4*, “Sunlit Garden,” and the “Organization Quiz.”
Additionally, regarding the smartphone app *Pikmin Bloom*, a new game mode called “Secret Cave,” where players collect “Otakara,” was announced. The Secret Cave update—which reportedly includes cross-play features with *Pikmin 4 Nintendo Switch 2 Edition*—is scheduled for release this winter.Furthermore, it was announced that “Pikmin Bloom Journey in Kobe” is scheduled to take place on November 21 and 22.
