All of the versions include downloadable content, online multiplayer modes, and hidden content

There are also several different release versions of the game, each of which is more expensive and includes more stuff than the last.

Pre-order Bonus: Small Statues of PikPik and Olimar.

Ruined Beauty: Includes the game in a steelbook case, the pre-order bonus, and a code to download the five areas from Pikmin 1 modified for use in Challenge Mode and to make the ending automatically the best one. The case is decorated in the destroyed visages of the Pikmin 1 areas, and the disc has the Morphing Candypop Bud on the front. This version is priced at $85.

Redeemers Edition: Includes all of the content of the Ruined Beauty version, as well as an Official Strategy Guide straight from the developers, a CD with the game's soundtrack, a PR poster signed by the developers, a key to solving the word puzzle and an S.S. Dolphin to hold everything in. This version is priced at $115.

Plot
After Olimar, Louie, and the Pikmin rescued The President and defeated the Empire Deathstool they triumphantly returned to Hocotate. Once at home Olimar took a short break away from work with his family. When he returned to work he was surprised by his employer with a special mission: return to the Pikmin Planet and study the wildlife there more in-depth than before. Olimar gladly sped out in his newly repurchased S.S. Dolphin towards the third-planet of the alien sun. Luck was not on his side, however; because Space Pirates attacked him when he was just outside the Pikmin planet's orbit. They quickly overwhelmed him and shot out the Dolphin's engines, sending his prize ship again hurtling down towards the planet. The last thing he remembered was being sucked into a grey-colored Onion.

Trivia and Other Things
Trivia
 * You see that actual Easter Egg on the Title screen? Well if you load up your file and head to where it was....
 * Every enemy from the canon Pikmin games returns, as well as many from previous fanon games in the timeline.

Devnotes
 * We've worked hard to hide little surprises in the game that only the most faithful fans could find. Try and find them all!

Anti-Rumor Mongering
 * Olimar does not die during the events of this game, get over it. The Plot Synopsis on this page is cryptic to avoid spoilers.
 * There are no intentional Satanic references in the game, no one on the Dev team is a Satan worshiper.
 * There are no hidden Pikmin in the game, just stop trying to get these non-existent "Godmin" or whatever the hell they're supposedly called. It's a waste of time.
