For starters, Pikmin 4 is getting a little more beginner-friendly with a new “Relaxed” mode that dials back creature hostility so you won’t be attacked unless you strike first. If you’re not afraid to put your Pikmins’ lives on the line, there’s also a new “Fierce” mode that does the opposite and cranks up the difficulty. You can swap difficulty modes mid-game or at the start of a new game.
