Pikmin Bloom
Pikmin Bloom is a 2021 augmented reality mobile game in the Pikmin series, originally developed and published by Niantic, and owned by Scopely as of 2025.
Similar to Pokémon Go, Pikmin Bloom rewards players for spending time outside. The player's real-world movements correlate to the production of items for Pikmin creatures.
The game's worldwide rollout began in late October 2021.
Pikmin Bloom is an augmented reality mobile game in the Pikmin series. For wandering and spending time outside, players are rewarded with items that can either grow or feed Pikmin creatures that appeared throughout the main Pikmin games.
The walking player is depicted as a Nintendo Account Mii (or one with limited customization for those without such an account) leading Pikmin, creating a trail of blossoming flowers on the map with flower petals collected from Pikmin, and the Pikmin can find items. This includes fruit and costumes. The Pikmin grow flowers on their heads when fed nectar, which in turn produces more flower petals, and then plant more flowers on the map. Local landmarks are represented as either big flowers, from which flower nectar can be collected, or as mushroom, which can be destroyed by Pikmin collaboratively with other players in a mushroom battle. There are also planned, collaborative multiplayer events and challenges involving large flowers.
The game is free-to-play. Like Niantic's Pokémon Go, the player can use real-world money to purchase virtual coins to boost progress.
The player can take real photographs with virtual Pikmin. The lifelogging component, inspired by Olimar's daily ship logs from the first Pikmin game, encourages the player to make and caption photos for daily calendar entries. The game app connects with Apple Health and Google Fit to count steps but has no smartwatch connection.
Niantic developed Pikmin Bloom under license from Nintendo after having previously collaborated on Pokémon Go.
