Pikmin Bloom brings the flavour with new Pasta Decor Pikmin

Niantic's AR games have always excelled at encouraging players to step out and explore, but the latest update for Pikmin Bloom might just take the cake for the most unusual yet. This update introduces the quirky Pasta Decor Pikmin, and you can find their seedlings at your local Italian eatery.

No, this isn't a sneaky ploy to get you dining out more often. Instead, it's a fun way to blend the world of Pikmin with Italian cuisine. These new Pikmin will sport a variety of pasta-inspired outfits, showcasing both classic and exotic pasta types. It's an odd yet intriguing method to draw players outdoors, and I believe it's bound to work, purely because of its eccentricity.

While some restaurant owners might be taken aback by the sudden crowds, others are likely to appreciate the increased foot traffic. To join in on this pasta-themed adventure, you'll need to update your Pikmin Bloom app. It's a small step to take for a chance to encounter these unique Pasta Decor Pikmin.

So, lace up your shoes and head out to your nearest Italian restaurant to discover these pasta-clad seedlings.
