Pikmin 4 is $20 off ahead of its $10 Nintendo Switch 2 update

Walmart is offering a discounted digital version of the Nintendo Switch game Pikmin 4 for $39.88, a significant reduction from its regular price of $59.99. This deal gives gamers $20 off the game's standard price. The discounted digital copy includes a dog companion, adding a new level of complexity and challenge to the game's puzzle-based gameplay, and delves deeper into the somber themes hinted at in previous titles.

Nintendo has also announced plans for a version of Pikmin 4 to launch on November 12, 2026, specifically for the Nintendo Switch 2. This updated version will boast enhanced visuals, voice commands for the dog companion, and a new Dandori Academy mode that offers progressively challenging levels. However, gamers looking to upgrade to the Switch 2 Edition will only need to spend an additional $10 over the cost of the current $39.88 digital version, bringing the total to $49.88 - a $20 saving compared to purchasing the more expensive Switch 2 Edition directly.
