Pikmin 3 is the third installment in the Pikmin series. The game centers around controlling three new characters: Alph, Brittany, and Charlie. They travel to PNF-404 (the planet featured in the first two games) to save their home planet Koppai from famine by harvesting seeds from the planet's fruit. Upon reaching the planet, they discover the Pikmin, a servile species that's both plant and animal, which they use to collect the fruit and battle the planet's many fierce creatures.

There are five types of Pikmin which are found throughout the game. Red, Yellow, and Blue Pikmin are resistant to fire, electricity, and water respectively. New to Pikmin 3 are Rock and Winged Pikmin varieties. Rock Pikmin have a hard, rock-like exterior that can cause massive impact damage, and are resistant to blunt forces. Finally, Winged Pikmin are weaker in battle, but can carry objects over walls and gaps, as well as combat enemies in the air.

The gameplay in Pikmin 3 focuses on resource management, as players must collect juice from each fruit piece collected. The player has to manage their juice bottles carefully, as running out of juice results in game over. The GamePad acts as the explorers' KopPad, displaying important information and objects on its map.

The game features various modes, including Story Mode, Mission Mode, and Bingo Battle mode. Players can also use different control schemes, such as the GamePad and Pro Controllers, or the Wii Remote and Nunchuck.
