After 7 long years without a game on a home console, Pikmin 3 Deluxe marks the return of the Pikmin franchise. This Deluxe port of the excellent WiiU game includes quality of life changes, new difficulty modes, and new side-story missions featuring Captain Olimar and Louie. To prepare for the trip back to PNF-404, we've put together a list of all of the stages you'll explore in Pikmin 3.
All of the stages in Pikmin 3 Deluxe
Pikmin 3 Deluxe features 5 different stages. Each stage offers different Pikmin, fruit, and enemies.
| Name | Description | Image |
|---|---|---|
| Tropical Wilds | Tropical Wilds is the first stage you'll encounter in Pikmin 3 Deluxe. Tropical Wild is a beach-like environment with plenty of sand and lots of water. Red Pikmin are native to this area. |  |
| Garden of Hope | The Garden of Hope is the second stage you'll encounter in Pikmin 3 Deluxe. The Garden of Hope is in the middle of a forest and features lots of woodland terrain. Many enemies, including the Bulorbs, call the Garden home. Rock Pikmin and Blue Pikmin are native to this location. |  |
| Distant Tundra | The Distant Tundra is the third stage you'll encounter in Pikmin 3 Deluxe. Distant Tundra is a large, snowy area that is split in half by a river. It's mostly flat, and because of the extreme temperatures, enemies are only found in the caves. Yellow Pikmin are found here. |  |
| Twilight River | Twilight River is the fourth stage you'll encounter in Pikmin 3 Deluxe. The Twilight River is a large river basin that runs through the entire area. Lilypads flow down the stream and act as a means of transportation for crossing the river. Winged Pikmin are found here. |  |
| Formidable Oak | The Formidable Oak is the final stage in Pikmin 3 Deluxe and home to the final boss, the Plasm Wraith. The Formidable Oak seems to be a termite nest found near a tree stump. The caves on this level are the largest in the game, and you'll need all five varieties of Pikmin to make it through. |  |
