Via a press release, Niantic and Nintendo announced the development of new apps using Niantic’s real-world augmented reality technology using Nintendo’s famous franchises, including a Pikmin AR game.

The Pikmin AR game, the first title both companies are working together, will offer “gameplay activities designed to encourage walking and make the activity more enjoyable.”

This AR game will be released later this year around the world. Niantic will be listed as the publisher.

The unnamed Pikmin AR game will be the first title created by Niantic Tokyo Studio, which was established in April 2018.

“As we continue to expand our games portfolio, it was a natural next step to team up with Nintendo,” said Niantic CEO John Hanke. “We’re looking forward to shaping the future of AR together, bringing Nintendo’s beloved game characters to life for mobile game players around the world.”

“Niantic’s AR technology has made it possible for us to experience the world as if Pikmin are secretly living all around us”, said Shigeru Miyamoto, Representative Director and Fellow at Nintendo. “Based on the theme of making walking fun, our mission is to provide people a new experience that’s different from traditional games. We hope that the Pikmin and this app will become a partner in your life.”

The Pikmin franchise turns 20 this year.
