Niantic and Nintendo's Pikmin Bloom hits its 4.5-year anniversary on June 1, 2026, and the game is marking the occasion with a collaboration with The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. The location-based walking app, which lets players plant flowers and collect Decor Pikmin tied to real-world locations, is also running the real-world event Pikmin Bloom Journey 2026 in Seoul, South Korea, which took place in May. The game's core loop remains simple: walk, plant flowers, find seedlings at spots like restaurants, forests, and movie theaters, then raise Pikmin by feeding them nectar. The Decor Pikmin system gives each Pikmin a themed accessory based on where its seedling was found, adding a treasure-hunt element to daily errands. The Detector tool helps locate nearby seedlings and can be used once daily for free, with additional uses available via in-app purchases or event rewards.
