New gameplay elements include the [[Rock Pikmin]], used to destroy the armor of enemies and other tough objects; and new [[hazards]] such as ice and magma, which require new tactics to overcome. Pikmin have demonstrated new abilities not previously encountered, such as riding down a natural slide to gather materials and collecting stones from piles around the area to build [[bridge]]s. Flying pink creatures that resemble Pikmin can be seen in the trailer for the game and on the title screen of the demos, but no further information is known about them. | ||
No returning characters have been announced, and four new ones are introduced in the game: a pink-haired girl, a brawny man with a military-haircut, a small man with blue-green hair, and a lanky green-haired man. These Pikmin [[captain|leaders]] are able to throw other leaders in ''Pikmin 3'', allowing for new puzzles. Throwing a leader seems to have a similar effect to throwing a Pikmin: the thrown leader will perform possible actions in the surrounding area, such as picking buried Pikmin. | No returning characters have been announced, and four new ones are introduced in the game: a pink-haired girl, a brawny man with a military-haircut, a small man with blue-green hair, and a lanky green-haired man.
