Randomizer DLC
DLC Pikmin: Wide World

Pikmin: Wide World's sole DLC expansion is the Randomizer. It affects Story Mode only and has a dedicated save slot on the save select menu.

The gameplay differences presented in a playthrough of the Randomizer DLC are as follows:

  • Only 2 random leaders are available from the start of the game. The missing leaders are found where Marie and Louie are rescued normally.
  • All areas are available from the start of the game. The game begins in a random landing site of a random area, and the initial landing site in all areas is randomly selected.
  • Various entities and elements are shuffled about, either in a single location or between two different ones:
    • Pikmin "discovery zones" remain where they are found normally;
    • Enemies may be shuffled around with minimal concern for the challenge they present in any situation, but bosses minor and major are still located where bosses of those kinds are located normally;
    • Entrances of caves and dens still lead to their respective destination type;
    • Most obstacles are shuffled around, and by type if so, such as a rhizome gate taking the place of an electric gate or a water body taking the place of an acid body;
    • Upgrades are completely shuffled, though some may be in their normal place by sheer chance.

The only goal is to defeat the Grimacing Cremblub, wherever it may be, as there is no debt to repay. Special logic ensures that an unbeatable seed will never be generated.
