Pikmin Bloom, the popular mobile game developed by Niantic in partnership with Nintendo, is ringing in the festive season with its highly anticipated Holiday Event.
Running from December 1, 2023, at 12:00 a.m.
local time through December 31, 2023, at 11:59 p.m.
local time, the event introduces a host of seasonal features to enhance players’ December walks and celebrate the holiday spirit. This year, the highlight of Pikmin Bloom’s Holiday Event is the debut of the 2025 Ornament Decor Pikmin.
These uniquely decorated Pikmin are designed to reflect the season’s cozy charm and are now available for both standard Pikmin and Ice Pikmin types.
In addition, the fan-favorite Ball Ornament and Mitten Decor Pikmin are making a comeback, although they are not accessible for Ice Pikmin this time around. Players can participate in a variety of event-exclusive activities, including mission-based Event Challenges.
By completing these missions, participants can earn in-app rewards at random, such as Snow Crystals, flower petals, and seedlings that can grow into 2025 Ornament Decor Pikmin.
Notably, when the Big Flower at the center of an event stage blooms, players are guaranteed to receive a Gold Seedling as an extra reward, further increasing their chances to collect these seasonal variants. The event also introduces opportunities to collect seedlings for Mitten Decor Pikmin and festive costumes for Mii characters.
At the start of the event, players gain access to special missions focused on gathering Snow Crystals.
Clearing these missions grants seedlings for Mitten Decor Pikmin and unlocks holiday-themed attire for Mii avatars.
It’s important to note, however, that Mitten Decor Pikmin are not available for Ice Pikmin. Adding another layer to the event, Bizarre Mushrooms may appear on the map.
Destroying these mushrooms rewards players with Mystery Boxes containing items like Snow Crystals and seedlings for Ball Ornament Decor Pikmin.
The 2025 Ornament, Ball Ornament, and Mitten Decor Pikmin receive a temporary strength boost against these mushrooms, enhancing their effectiveness during the event. To take full advantage of the new 2025 Ornament Decor Pikmin, players should update Pikmin Bloom to at least version 133.
The game remains free to start on both iOS and Android devices, with optional in-app purchases and bundles available, including event-exclusive offers for even more in-game rewards. With major mobile events like this Holiday Event, Pikmin Bloom continues to engage its global community and expand its legacy as one of Nintendo and Niantic’s standout collaborations.
Wrap up warm, step outside, and celebrate December with these limited-edition Pikmin companions, while enjoying the season’s lights and sounds enhanced through the lens of this innovative mobile title.
