Pikmin Bloom Introduces New Pasta Decor Pikmin

Niantic's AR games are renowned for their innovative ways to encourage players to step outside, but the latest update for Pikmin Bloom might just take the cake—or should we say, pasta? The newest feature introduces the quirky Pasta Decor Pikmin, urging players to visit their local Italian restaurants to find new seedlings.

No, this isn't a clever ploy to boost restaurant visits for a meal, but rather an exciting addition to the game. These Pasta Decor Pikmin come adorned with various types of pasta, ranging from the familiar to the exotic, appealing to Italian cuisine enthusiasts everywhere. While the concept may seem unusual, its eccentricity is likely to draw players out of their homes and into their communities.

The effectiveness of this update might be due to its sheer novelty. Though it's a bit baffling how such an idea came to fruition, it's expected that local Italian eateries will appreciate the increased foot traffic, provided they're not overwhelmed by eager gamers crowding their sidewalks.

To participate in this pasta-themed adventure, you'll need to update your Pikmin Bloom app. It's a small update for a chance to experience pasta perfection in the form of these unique Pikmin. So, get out there and start searching for those seedlings!
