'''Missions''' are objectives for [[Pikmin 4 player character|the player's character]] to complete throughout {{p4}}. These are given by either [[Rescue Corps]] members or by rescued [[castaway]]s, typically within the [[Rescue Command Post]] hub area once they've been rescued.

There are two types of missions: Main Missions and Side Missions.

== Main Missions ==
Main Missions are the main objectives the player must complete. They are usually story related with simple goals requiring the player to progress through the game normally to complete. These are often given by members of the [[Rescue Corps]].

== Side Missions ==
Side Missions are objectives that aren't necessary to complete, but reward the player with things like [[raw material]]s for doing so. These are often given to the player after talking to rescued crewmates and castaways in the [[Rescue Command Post]]. Other quests are only unlocked once the player has completed a previous quest first.
